sea water filter filter -10 micron
sea water filter filter -10 micron
(OP)
I am looking for a 10 micron filter for sea water. It is a low flow application, with only intermittant use (~1 gpm; 15 minutes continuous max, perhaps several times a day)
There may be a 2500 psi differential across the filter (depending on depth), and I am going to use a control valve with a small orifice for flow control. We will be flowing into a small tank, and pumping out thuough the same orifice, so it will be self cleaning.
Any ideas on where to look for such a filter?

RE: sea water filter filter -10 micron
As many reverse osmosis plants use microfiltration techniques, a method of cleaning the filter will be necessary. This is often a combination of backfluesh plus chemical cleaning.
As you mention 'depth' I wonder if submarines might have something similar.
