Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not suited for stainless steel, leading to material deformation or inaccurate cuts.Employ specialized carbide or diamond-tipped cutting blades designed for high-grade stainless steel.
Failing to properly seal the fabricated filter sheet within the housing, resulting in bypass and reduced filtration efficiency.Use appropriate gaskets and sealing compounds compatible with the process fluid and operating temperature.
