Liquid Filtration Testing - Well Developed Science or Abused Art Form?

At its best aqueous filtration testing is a able-bodied developed science. At its affliction it is a blurred and generally abused art form. On September 23-25, 2008 at the Charlotte Hilton University Place in Charlotte, NC, the American Filtration and Separations Society (AFS) will be captivation its' abatement appointment on "Infrastructure, Sustainability & Testing Management." One abounding track, 8 sessions & 32 presentations, will be adherent to Filter Testing. The appointment is preceded by a day of filtration abbreviate courses on September 22 at the aforementioned location, including a half-day advance on Liquid Filtration Testing. Infrastructure, Sustainability & Testing Management. Infrastructure, Sustainability & Testing Management.

Minneapolis, MN -- At its best aqueous filtration testing is a able-bodied developed science. At its affliction it is a blurred and generally abused art form. In the USA abandoned industry spends tens of millions of dollars anniversary year assuming clarify assuming testing. This includes class bank top methods for aboriginal date action analysis or validation of bell-ringer achievement claims as able-bodied as in acreage scaled down concrete pilot testing. With all this testing you would anticipate there would be accurate accord on best practices and methods but that is not consistently the case.

It is not aberrant to apprehend clarify experts say the alone way to "really" apperceive if the advised clarify meets the proposed action requirements is to do concrete in bulb testing. Their acumen accepting that in some cases there are too abounding variables and unknowns to accomplish a allusive lab calibration bank test. And while that is sometimes actual if processes are beneath defined, it is expensive, puts the bulb in a non assembly mode, and unless the action is abiding can too action misinformation. The aforementioned can authority accurate for connected industry class tests if it is difficult to absolutely alike acreage altitude in the laboratory.

To abbreviate the accoutrement of misinterpretation, and misinformation connected all-embracing testing methods accept been developed area able-bodied authentic and absolutely controlled action ambit can be achieved. International analysis methods are developed, by bunch teams of experts who coact to authorize stable, repeatable and able-bodied acclimatized testing protocol.

Filter testing for fuel, water, and bless oil acclimated in automotive, aerospace, nuclear, decay baptize and bubbler baptize industries are broadly acclimated and accepted. These cover tests for: Permeability, Porosity, Bubble point, Porometry Tests, Particle Counting, Dirt Holding Capacity (DHC), Efficiency rating, Beta Ratio, LRV, Collapse Tests, Cyclic Testing, Water Removal Efficiency, Single Pass Filter Testing, Differential Pressure Testing, Multi-Pass Filter Testing, Dead End, Side Stream, Cross Flow, Diafiltration, Sub Micron Efficiency Tests.

So whether it is best to accomplish class tests or scaled down in-field pilot tests is never simple. Often the best access is a counterbalanced mix of both. Working calm smartly; action engineers, acreage operators and testing scientists can accomplish allusive results.

On September 23-25, 2008 at the Charlotte Hilton University Place in Charlotte, NC, the American Filtration and Separations Society (AFS) will be captivation its' abatement appointment on "Infrastructure, Sustainability & Testing Management."

One abounding track, 8 sessions & 32 presentations, will be adherent to Filter Testing. The appointment is preceded by a day of filtration abbreviate courses on September 22 at the aforementioned location, including a half-day advance on Liquid FiltrationTesting.

The Liquid Filtration Testing abbreviate advance is offered on Monday, September 22, 2008, 1 message - 4 pm. The advance will awning clarify testing techniques and standards for water, fuel, bless oil, hydraulic fluids and added automated liquids. In accession atom characteristics and ability methods and ratings will be reviewed.

AFS is the arch alignment in North America committed to R&D, botheration solutions and technology alteration in filtration and break for the account of automated processes, alone bloom and a apple-pie environment.
