Sanitary Filters
Sanitary Stainless Steel Filters for Data Centers
Overview:
Sanitary stainless steel filters are designed to safeguard high-purity liquid-cooling systems by capturing particulates and maintaining coolant integrity. Built to meet CFIA and Open Compute Project (OCP) standards, these precision filters combine robust stainless steel construction with sanitary, crevice-free design—delivering exceptional reliability and cleanliness in mission-critical Data Center environments. Ideal for glycol-water, dielectric, and deionized coolant systems, they ensure optimal fluid quality while reducing maintenance and protecting downstream components.
Key Technical Advantages:
CFIA-Compliant Sanitary Design: Smooth, polished internal surfaces and fully drainable housings prevent contamination buildup and support clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilize-in-place (SIP) processes.
316L Stainless Steel Construction: Provides superior corrosion resistance, structural integrity, and long-term compatibility with a wide range of coolants.
High Filtration Efficiency: Available in mesh, sintered metal, or pleated stainless media with micron ratings from 1 µm to 100 µm.
High Pressure and Temperature Capability: Rated for continuous operation up to 20 bar (290 psi) and 200 °C (392 °F).
Modular, Serviceable Design: Clamp or flange end connections allow tool-free element replacement and rapid inspection.
Low Pressure Drop: Precision flow paths maintain high efficiency without restricting coolant circulation.
Optional Differential-Pressure Ports: Enable monitoring and predictive maintenance for critical systems.
Data-Center Application Focus:
Sanitary stainless steel filters play an essential role in protecting data-center cooling loops and manifold systems. Installed upstream of coolant distribution units (CDUs), heat exchangers, and cold-plate circuits, they remove particulate matter that could foul narrow channels or sensitive thermal interfaces. Their non-shedding, fully metallic construction ensures coolant purity and system reliability, even in dielectric or deionized environments. With CFIA-compliant sanitary design, corrosion-resistant materials, and easy serviceability, these filters help maintain long-term cooling efficiency and uptime in OCP-compliant, contamination-free liquid-cooling infrastructures.
