Mott - Sintered Alloy Filter Elements
Mott manufactures porous metal filter elements in a broad range of materials, sizes, and fittings, making them easily specified with the characteristics and configurations customers require for their specific filtration needs. We can incorporate custom features or create completely original porous metal filter element designs for specialized needs, ensuring that each solution perfectly matches the application it’s intended for. Mott’s porous metal filter elements are also available in a variety of alloys, each offering unique benefits and suitability for different application purposes, from chemical processing to gas filtration. Our porous metal filter elements are a popular choice for many industrial filtration applications due to their exceptional heat, corrosion, and physical wear resistance, providing reliable and effective filtration under the most demanding conditions.

Cleaning
Mott LSI and GSV filters are designed for clean-in-place performance, meaning filter elements can discharge cake build-up without having to open the filter for maintenance. Once a terminal pressure drop has been reached, the cleaning cycle automatically initiates to discharge cake build-up through gas assisted pulse or manually through a backwash cycle.
Particles will embed in the filter media over time, requiring the elements to be cleaned by a third-party company. Various cleaning techniques can be used to prolong life of the elements. For a recommendation of a cleaning company, please contact a Mott representative. It is recommended you keep a spare set of filter elements to continue operations while elements are being cleaned.
