How Filters Work and Their Types: Y-Type Filters and Basket Filters
- DELCO-ventil
Filters are essential components in fluid systems designed to remove contaminants and protect downstream equipment. In this article DELCO-ventil will share how filters work and the two different types of filters.

How Filters Work?
Filters work in different ways, but the basic principles are similar. When a liquid or gas passes through a filter, the impurities in it are blocked by the filter’s mesh, cartridge, or other filtration media, thus making the filtered fluid purer. The working principle can be summarized as follows:
- Capture of impurities: The screen or cartridge in the filter captures impurities such as solid particles, sediments, or other unwanted components in the liquid or gas.
- Separation of impurities: Through the pore size of the filter media, different sizes of impurities can be selectively filtered, so that the harmful substances in the fluid can not pass through while the clean fluid passes through.
- Protect the equipment: the filter can protect the equipment from the damage of impurities, prolong the service life of the equipment, to ensure the smooth operation of the system.
- Maintaining fluid cleanliness: through continuous filtration, the filter helps to maintain the cleanliness and purity of the fluid, which is applicable to various fields, such as water treatment.
Y-Type Filters VS Basket Filters
Types | Design | Fordele | Anvendelser |
Y-Type Filters | Y-type filter has a Y-shaped structure in appearance, with an inclined inlet port and a vertical outlet port, fluid passes through smoothly and can be filtered effectively. |
| Ideal for pipelines with limited space.
|
Kurvefiltre | Basket filters are usually designed with cylindrical or square housings with replaceable filter baskets inside to filter the fluid through a screen or cartridge. |
| Suitable for high-flow systems with large amounts of debris. |
Choosing the Right Filter
- Flow Rate: Match the filter size to your system’s flow rate.
- Particle Size: Choose a filter with the appropriate mesh size for your application.
- Material: Select materials compatible with the fluid (e.g., stainless steel for corrosive media).
Konklusion
Filters play a critical role in maintaining the efficiency and longevity of fluid systems. By understanding their working principles and types, you can select the right filter for your needs and ensure optimal performance.
