Multi-Mantle Filter Elements

High‑Efficiency Protection for Critical Equipment

Next Generation Multi‑Mantle Filtration Elements

Multi‑mantle filters consist of several concentric filter cylinders, offering a large effective filtration surface within a compact footprint. Available in all standard sizes and filtration grades, they deliver high flow capacity and minimal space requirements.

These elements are widely used for filtering fuels, lubricants, water, and more—particularly in marine, water‑treatment, hydraulic, cooling, and chemical applications. Constructed from premium stainless‑steel, they are fully washable and reusable, ensuring long service life and lower total cost of ownership.

Key Features & Performance Benefits

Compact, High‑Surface Design

Multiple concentric mantles maximize filtration area in limited space.

Wide Application Range

Suited for fuels, lubricants, water, coolant fluids, hydraulic oils, and chemicals.

Premium Stainless‑Steel Construction

Durable 304/304L/316/316L/321 grades; fully washable for repeated use.

Standard Sizes & Grades

Available in all common dimensions and micron ratings to meet process needs.

High Dirt‑Holding Capacity

Extended run‑times between cleanings or replacements.

Compact Footprint

Ideal where space is at a premium (e.g., marine vessels, compact skids).

Applications & Use Cases

Multi-mantle filter elements are widely used in filtration of fuels, lubricants, cooling liquids, hydraulic oils, and various chemicals—especially in space-constrained environments where a large filtration surface is needed in a compact form. Their robust stainless-steel construction allows for repeated washing and reuse, making them ideal for marine industries, water treatment systems, and heavy-duty industrial settings.

 

In industrial filtration lines where larger impurities must be captured before reaching finer filters, another common solution is employed — strainer-type filters. These systems, though structurally different, complement multi-mantle elements by providing initial-stage protection against coarse contaminants and are often used in tandem within the same filtration architecture.

Strainer Filters

Strainer filters—also known as basket filters or inline strainers—are essential components used at the early stages of fluid filtration systems. Their main purpose is to protect sensitive downstream equipment such as pumps, compressors, piping, and valves from damage caused by large solid contaminants or debris in the process fluid.

Strainers are commonly used in a wide range of industrial and processing environments, including chemical plants, refineries, water treatment facilities, and power generation systems. Their modular and durable designs make them well-suited for continuous flow systems where easy maintenance and reliable filtration are essential.

🔹 Common Types

Strainer filters are available in multiple configurations depending on the application, including:

  • T-Type Strainers

  • Y-Type Strainers

  • Basket-Type Strainers

  • Cone-Type Strainers

  • Flanged Models and more

🔹 Materials & Durability

Depending on the type of fluid and its corrosiveness, strainers are manufactured using a variety of high-grade stainless steels, such as:

  • SS 304 / 304L

  • SS 316 / 316L

  • SS 321, and others.

These materials ensure corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and long service life even in harsh industrial conditions.

🔹 Key Features

  • Low pressure drop across the filter

  • High corrosion resistance for aggressive or acidic environments

  • Fully washable and reusable construction

  • Protects critical system components from particulate damage

  • ✅ Suitable for both low-flow and high-pressure systems

Strainer filters are often installed in conjunction with multi-mantle elements, acting as the first line of defense to trap coarse particles before finer filtration occurs.
