There are many types of industrial filtration equipment. According to the filter media, precision and application scenarios, they can be divided into the following categories:


Classification by filter media

Liquid filtration equipment

1. Oil filter (oil filtration)

- Used for the purification of lubricating oil, hydraulic oil, transformer oil, etc.

- Type: plate and frame oil filter, vacuum oil filter, centrifugal oil filter, coalescing dehydration oil filter.

2. Water treatment filter

- Used for industrial wastewater, circulating water, and pure water preparation.

- Type: sand filter, activated carbon filter, multi-media filter, ultrafiltration (UF) equipment.

3. Chemical liquid filter

- Used for filtering chemical liquids such as acids, alkalis, and solvents.

- Type: bag filter, candle filter, magnetic filter.


Gas filtration equipment

1. Air dust collector

- Used to remove particulate matter from compressed air and industrial waste gas.

- Type: bag filter, cyclone filter, electrostatic precipitator, HEPA filter.

2. Oil mist filter

- Used for oil mist recovery in machine tools and CNC machining centers.

3. Activated carbon adsorption tower

- Used for VOCs (volatile organic compounds) waste gas treatment.


Classification by filtering method

1. Mechanical filter

- Physically intercept particulate matter through filter screens, filter elements, etc. (such as bag filters, filter element filters).

2. Adsorption filter

- Use activated carbon, silica gel, etc. to adsorb impurities (such as activated carbon filters, molecular sieves).

3. Membrane separation equipment

- Use ultrafiltration (UF), reverse osmosis (RO), nanofiltration (NF) and other membrane technologies for precision filtration.

4. Centrifugal filter

- Use centrifugal force to separate impurities (such as oil-water separators, centrifugal oil filters).

5. Magnetic filter

- Used to remove ferromagnetic impurities (such as pipeline magnetic filters).


Classification by degree of automation

1. Manual filter

- Requires manual cleaning or replacement of filter element (such as basket filter, Y-type filter).

2. Semi-automatic filter

- With backwashing function, but requires manual intervention (such as a backwashing filter).

3. Fully automatic filter

- Automatic backwashing and slag removal (such as self-cleaning filter, fully automatic oil filter).


Key factors for selection

- Filtration accuracy (μm level, nanometer level)

- Flow requirements (m³/h)

- Medium characteristics (viscosity, corrosiveness, temperature)

- Automation requirements (manual/automatic cleaning)

- Installation method (pipeline, mobile)


If you need more specific equipment recommendations, please provide the application scenario (such as what medium to filter, flow rate, accuracy, etc.), and I can help you recommend suitable industrial oil filtration equipment!
