Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a lower grade of stainless steel not suited for the specific corrosive environment.Always verify the material grade's compatibility with the process fluids and operating conditions. 316 stainless steel is recommended for its enhanced corrosion resistance.
Improper handling leading to deformation or damage of the sheet.Handle the sheet with care, using appropriate lifting equipment if necessary, to avoid bending, scratching, or other damage that could compromise filtration efficiency.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing filtration
  • Food and beverage production
  • Marine and offshore equipment
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is worn during handling and installation.
  • Verify material compatibility with all process chemicals before installation to prevent premature degradation.
