SIKA-R...AS denotes asymmetrically constructed metallic membranes, whereby, using a patented process, a thin filter-active layer is added to a robust support structure. (Usually a conventional produced IS- or AX-product.) As a result of years of development, the product offers users a sintered membrane that combines high permeability and very low pressure drop, yet retaining all the advantages of sintered metal filters. |
|
Asymmetric construction allows manipulation of stability and particle retention functions which are independently. |

Properties: |
The characteristics of SIKA-R...AX products result in the following important properties: |
- Shape/-stability i.e. selfsupporting structural elements suitable for high differential pressures.
- Particularly good properties when under compression, vibration and changing conditions or with high sudden pressures spikes.
- High heat resistance and thermal stability up to 1742¡ãF.
- Defined permeability and filtration properties because the pore size and distribution are exact and uniform.
|
|
- Backflushing and easy cleaning with superheated steam, chemical solvents, thermal processes or ultrasonicaly.
- The variety of materials used are both weldable and machinable.
