Genesolve filter

02/27/2008 4:31 PM

I am looking for a cleanable stainless steel .003micron filter to recycle Isopropal Alcohol and Genesolve 2000. Approx 15litres flow rate per minute, Filter assembly cannot exude any plasticisers or other contaminants.

Thanking you in advance for your help in this matter.

<...0.003 micron...>

Is that correct? 0.2 micron is sufficient to keep ultrapure water bacteria-free!

Hi PWSlack,

Thanks for reply, just quoting a fairly standard sizing that has been recommended to us for use in our application, the filter is going to be used to collect particulate matter during our cleaning process. This process involves circulating, firstly Isopropal Alcohol through 45' long convoluted S/S Helium lines from a Cryogenic cooling system, the next stage is the same deal but using Genesolv 2000. The filter is used in this cleaning/flushing system. We pay for 'cleaned' lines when purchased, but with our crude filter paper setup it is not uncommon to retrieve up to 2 x 'match head' piles of debris, ie paint specs, carbon from the welding process, cut off wheel grit, and also dust from teflon seals and bronze or delrin bushes, identified under a lab microscope.

If this debris is left in there it finds it way into the valve plate and valves also seals and usually causes problems when it finds its way further into the 20kelvin and 70 kelvin displacers of these CTI 1020 fridges.

Hence the need for as clean as possible Genesolve for this job.
