Expert Filter Selection Consulting
Choosing the right filter is far more than diameter, height and flow rate. Filtration class, type of contamination, environmental conditions, equipment sensitivity and lifecycle cost all need to be evaluated together to ensure that your filtration system operates reliably, efficiently and economically.
- Choosing suitable filters for compressors, production lines and compressed air systems
- Consulting on replacing existing filters with more optimized alternatives
- Reducing consumable filter costs without sacrificing filtration quality
Why is correct filter selection so critical?
Using an unsuitable filter can increase energy consumption, shorten equipment lifetime, reduce product quality, cause premature filter failure and even lead to production downtime. On the other hand, choosing an over-specified and unnecessarily expensive filter raises costs without delivering real added value. The goal of our filter selection consulting at Sepanta Palaye Pars is to find the optimal balance between performance, service life and cost.
Protecting your equipment
Properly selected filters prevent harmful solid particles, oil, moisture and contaminants from entering sensitive equipment, increasing the lifetime of compressors, valves, actuators and pneumatic tools.
Reducing hidden costs
Incorrect filter selection can lead to higher energy consumption, line stoppages, product scrap and maintenance costs. With the right choice, these hidden costs can be significantly reduced.
Ensuring product quality
In many industries (food, pharmaceutical, automotive, etc.), compressed air or process fluid quality has a direct impact on the final product. The right filter helps maintain consistent and stable product quality.
What do we do in filter selection consulting?
Our technical team evaluates your current filtration system, equipment data and process quality requirements to provide clear, practical recommendations for selecting or replacing filters:
Assessment of current situation
Review of existing filters, installation conditions, service life, pressure drop, recurring issues and weaknesses of your current filtration system.
Defining filtration level and class
Determining the required filtration level based on application standards, equipment sensitivity, environmental conditions and the desired outlet quality of your process.
Filter & media selection
Recommending filter type (air, oil, separator, etc.), media, effective area and dimensions considering flow rate, operating pressure and installation/space constraints.
Technical & economic comparison
Comparing different alternatives in terms of price, service life, pressure drop, market availability and lifecycle cost to choose the most economical and reliable option.
Filter selection consulting steps
Our consulting process is designed to stay simple for you while still providing a precise overview of your current situation and the most suitable optimization options:
Information gathering
Collecting data on application, equipment, current issues, installation photos or drawings, and specifications of filters in use.
Technical analysis & options review
Analysing operating conditions and reviewing possible solutions, including filters from Sepanta’s portfolio and, if needed, cross-referencing alternative brands and models.
Written proposal
Providing a written proposal including technical specifications of recommended filters, advantages over the current situation and, where possible, an estimate of potential cost savings.
Support during implementation
Supporting implementation of the new filters, initial performance monitoring and collecting feedback to fine-tune the final solution if needed.
When do you need filter selection consulting?
Our experience shows that in many cases, a simple adjustment in filter selection or layout can lead to significant improvements. Typical situations include:
- Filters are consumed faster than expected and replaced too frequently.
- System pressure drop is high and compressor energy consumption has increased.
- Compressed air or process fluid quality is still not satisfactory despite filter changes.
- You are modifying the production line, adding new equipment or increasing capacity.
- You want to replace existing filters with more economical yet reliable alternatives.
- You need an objective technical comparison between several filter brands and models.
