| Material Composition | – Body & Baskets: 304 stainless steel (standard) for general corrosion resistance; 316 stainless steel (optional) for enhanced resistance to chlorides, acids, and seawater. – Filter Screen: 304/316 stainless steel mesh, woven or sintered, with precise aperture control. – Valves & Hardware: 3-way valves in stainless steel; fasteners in 304/316 to avoid galvanic corrosion.  | 
| Pressure Rating | Up to 40bar (4.0MPa), suitable for high-pressure systems such as petrochemical pipelines, hydraulic circuits, and industrial water mains. | 
| Temperature Range | -20℃~200℃ (with EPDM gaskets); up to 300℃ with Viton gaskets, adapting to ambient, hot, or mildly cryogenic media. | 
| Filtration Precision | 0.04μm~1000μm, customizable via mesh selection (e.g., 5μm for fine chemicals, 500μm for large debris in water treatment). | 
| Connection Type | Flanged (ASME B16.5, RF) or threaded (NPT/BSPT), compatible with standard pipeline components for flexible installation. | 
| Structural Features | Two parallel filter chambers; 3-way valves for flow diversion; quick-open cover (bolt-on or clamp-type); vent valve for air release; drain valve for cleaning. | 
| Performance Metrics | – Filtration Efficiency: ≥99% for particles ≥ rated micron size. – Pressure Drop: ≤0.1bar at rated flow (varies by size/filter mesh). – Cycle Life: ≥10,000 operations for valves; filter baskets ≥5 years with proper maintenance.  |

IV. Manufacturing Processes
A. Material Preparation & Quality Validation
- Stainless Steel Sourcing: 304/316 stainless steel plates or billets are sourced from certified mills, with chemical composition verified via spectral analysis (e.g., 316: 16-18% Cr, 10-14% Ni, 2-3% Mo) to ensure corrosion resistance.
 - Defect Detection: Raw materials undergo ultrasonic testing to identify internal flaws (porosity, cracks) that could compromise pressure integrity in high-pressure applications.
 
B. Body & Chamber Fabrication
- Forming: Filter bodies and chambers are fabricated via forging (for high-pressure models) or precision welding (for large diameters). Forging enhances material density, critical for withstanding 40bar pressure; welded bodies are post-weld heat-treated to relieve internal stresses.
 - Machining: Chamber interiors, valve ports, and connection surfaces are CNC-machined to tight tolerances (±0.05mm). Flange faces are ground to Ra ≤3.2μm for leak-tight sealing; threaded connections (NPT/BSPT) are precision-cut to ensure compatible assembly with pipes.
 
C. Filter Basket & Screen Production
- Basket Construction: Stainless steel sheets are laser-cut and formed into cylindrical baskets, with perforated bases (1-3mm holes) for structural support. Seams are TIG-welded to prevent fluid bypass.
 - Mesh Attachment: Woven/sintered stainless steel mesh is secured to the basket frame via crimping or welding. Mesh aperture is verified using a micrometer to ensure filtration precision (e.g., 50μm mesh checked for uniform opening size).
 
D. Valve & Assembly Integration
- 3-Way Valve Fabrication: Valves are machined from solid stainless steel, with precision-ground balls or plugs to ensure leak-free flow diversion. Seats are lapped to Ra ≤0.8μm for tight sealing.
 - Final Assembly: Chambers are connected to 3-way valves via flanged or threaded joints. Quick-open covers are fitted with gaskets (EPDM/Viton) and hinge hardware. Vent/drain valves are installed to facilitate maintenance.
 
E. Testing & Certification
- Hydrostatic Test: Each filter is pressurized to 1.5×rated pressure (60bar for 40bar models) for 30 minutes, with no visible leakage or deformation.
 - Filtration Efficiency Test: Challenged with standardized particles (e.g., glass beads) to verify ≥99% removal at rated micron size.
 - Operation Test: 3-way valves are cycled 100+ times to ensure smooth switching; quick-open covers are tested for easy access and secure closure.
