Critical filtration applications

Tailored aperture geometries configured for process vessels and bed distribution.

Explore all applications

Water & Wastewater Treatment

Media retention in ion exchange resin columns, rapid sand filters, and carbon bed contactors.

Chemical & Petrochemical

Corrosion-resistant distribution and collection in acid tanks, reactor bottoms, and catalyst beds.

Power & Thermal Processing

High-temperature condensate polishing, boiler feedwater purification, and cooling tower loops.

Technical Data SheetDIN / ASTM E2016 Compliant

Filter nozzle engineering specifications

Review slot aperture tolerances, flow metrics, alloy grades, and vessel underdrain compatibility for industrial water treatment and process vessels.

Continuous V-Shape Slot

Two-point contact prevents particle wedging and allows rapid backwashing without blind spots.

Precision Fusion Welding

Wedge profile wire is fully fusion-welded to support rods at every single junction for high burst resistance.

Certified Delta-P Strength

Standard units withstand collapse differentials exceeding 10 bar (145 psi) without slot distortion.

Passivated Finish

Electro-chemical pickling removes free iron and restores chromium oxide passivation for maximum longevity.
