Steel Mesh Filters

Perm-A-Steel, Steel Smith and Stainless Steel

Smith Galvanized and Stainless Filters Multiple consist of layers of expanded steel. Each filter contains a heavy frame with drain holes for proper drainage. Steel Filters are easily cleaned in a matter of minutes by thorough soaking, spraying or in a dishwasher. Because of the steel material, most cleaners are safe to use on these filters. When using steel mesh filters for an air application, Smith Filter Spray is recommended to achieve the greatest dust retention.

PERM-A-STEEL

The Smith PERM-A-STEEL is a medium weight Galvanized filter, made with a hop dipped Galvanized Steel frame. No less than six layers of expanded steel, laid at right angles to each other, make up this pad. This filter element is processed from sheet steel, commercially known as hot dip Galvanized, no less than .0157 in thickness, expanded through no less than .020 feed. The PERM-A-STEEL filter will retain 290 grams of dust per 2.25 sq. ft. (20 x 20). Resistance when clean is 0.05 w.g. at 350 FPM. Maximum capacity is 0.335 w.g. Frames are made from sheets of hot dip Galvanized Steel. The maximum temperature range for the Smith PERM-A-STEEL is 425 degrees F.

The recommended use for these filters is in the air handling units for commercial buildings, restaurants, schools and office buildings plus light industrial applications.

STEEL SMITH

The STEEL SMITH filter is a seven layer mesh filter, made from Galvanized Steel, commercially known as Hot Dip G-90, 28 gauge in thickness, expanded through .032 feed. Frames are made from 24 gauge Hot Dip G-90 Galvanized Steel. This heavy Steel filter will retain 300 grams of dust per 2.25 sq. ft. (20 x 20 filter) of filter area. Resistance when clean is .075 w.g. at 350 FPM air velocity. Maximum temperature range for the STEEL SMITH is 450 degrees F.

The filter was designed for industrial use where a heavy steel filter is required.

STAINLESS STEEL

The Smith STAINLESS STEEL filter is made from 304 Stainless Steel throughout. Filtering media consist of no less than 7 layers of corrugated Stainless Steel, expanded through specific feeds to assure maximum filtering and internal loading capabilities. Filter elements are processed from 304 Stainless Steel sheets, expanded to .032 strand. Frames are made from 304 Stainless Steel, no less than .024 thickness, joined with Stainless Steel rivets. This filter will retain 300 grams of dust per 2.25 sq. ft. (20 x 20 filter) of filter area. Resistance when clean is .075 w.g. at 350 FPM air velocity. Maximum temperature range for the Smith STAINLESS STEEL is 900 degrees F. The STAINLESS STEEL Mesh filter is designed for applications that require the utmost in filtering ability. Stainless Steel will withstand extreme heat and corrosive solutions that both Aluminum and Galvanized filters can't handle. The "CADILLAC" of filters!
