NICKEL FOAM OIL MIST FILTER STAINLESS STEEL FRAME ACID-RESISTANT

RESEARCH GRADE MATERIAL

Product Overview

This plate-type Nickel Foam Oil Filter integrates a high-porosity reticulated nickel foam core within a robust stainless steel frame filter housing, delivering exceptional oil mist coalescing filtration performance for commercial kitchen exhaust and industrial air handling systems. The inherently irregular pore geometry of the nickel foam maximizes inertial impaction, forcing suspended oil droplets to collide and coalesce on the extensive internal surface area. Collected grease drains efficiently through corner leak holes into an integrated collection tray. Engineered as a fully acid-alkali resistant filter, the all-metal construction withstands aggressive cleaning agents and harsh exhaust condensates without degradation, ensuring sustained separation efficiency over extended service life.

Key Features & Advantages

  • Irregular Pore Geometry for High Separation Efficiency: The stochastic reticulated structure of the nickel foam core dramatically increases oil mist collision frequency compared to conventional mesh or baffle filters, achieving superior coalescing performance across a wide droplet size distribution.
  • Integrated Gravity Drainage Design: Captured oil coalesces and drains passively through precision corner leak holes into a detachable collection tray, minimizing filter saturation and maintaining consistent airflow resistance throughout the duty cycle.
  • Robust Acid-Alkali Resistance: The all-metal nickel foam and stainless steel frame assembly resists corrosion from acidic exhaust condensates and withstands aggressive alkaline degreasing agents during routine cleaning cycles without structural compromise.
  • Fully Washable and Reusable Construction: Unlike disposable fiberglass or synthetic media, this filter can be cleaned via immersion in commercial degreasing solutions or ultrasonic baths and returned to service, significantly reducing total cost of ownership.

APPLICATION SCOPE: Designed for installation in commercial kitchen range hood exhaust plenums, industrial oil mist extraction systems, CNC machining coolant recovery units, and food processing ventilation ductwork. The filter plate operates on the principle of inertial impaction coalescing filtration, where suspended aerosolized oil droplets collide with and adhere to the high-surface-area nickel foam substrate. Compatible with standard filter track mounting systems.
PACKAGING: Each filter plate is individually wrapped in protective polyethylene film and packed within a corrugated carton with edge reinforcement to prevent frame deformation during transit. Custom dimensions are manufactured to order; please specify length × width × thickness requirements at inquiry stage.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: To maintain optimal oil mist coalescing filtration efficiency, the filter should be cleaned when pressure drop across the plate reaches 150 Pa or visible grease accumulation exceeds 50% of the frontal area. For cleaning, immerse in a heated alkaline detergent bath (pH 10–12) at 60–80°C for 15–30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with potable water. Do not use concentrated strong acids (pH < 2) for routine cleaning despite the inherent acid-alkali resistance of the nickel material. Ensure the corner leak holes remain unobstructed to maintain proper gravity drainage. Allow filter to dry completely before reinstallation.

How does the irregular pore geometry of the nickel foam core impact oil mist separation efficiency and pressure drop compared to conventional mesh filters?

The stochastic reticulated structure of the nickel foam core dramatically increases oil mist collision frequency, achieving superior coalescing performance across a wide droplet size distribution compared to conventional mesh or baffle filters. However, this design may lead to higher operating pressure drop; to maintain efficiency, the filter should be cleaned when the pressure drop reaches 150 Pa or visible grease accumulation exceeds 50% of the frontal area.

Is this plate-type nickel foam oil mist filter compatible with standard filter track mounting systems in commercial kitchen exhaust plenums?

Yes, the filter plate is designed for installation in commercial kitchen range hood exhaust plenums and is compatible with standard filter track mounting systems. Dimensions are customizable to specification, so custom sizes are manufactured to order; for integration, verify track dimensions at the inquiry stage to ensure proper fit.

What are the recommended cleaning procedures and critical chemical restrictions for washable nickel foam oil mist filters to avoid damaging the core?

The filter should be immersed in a heated alkaline detergent bath (pH 10–12) at 60–80°C for 15–30 minutes, then rinsed thoroughly with potable water. Despite the material's acid-alkali resistance, concentrated strong acids (pH < 2) must not be used for routine cleaning. Corner leak holes must remain unobstructed for gravity drainage, and the filter must be dried completely before reinstallation.

This variable-size nickel foam oil mist filter (available in 270mm×270mm×10mm and 500mm×500mm×20mm) with stainless steel frame provides high-efficiency coalescing filtration for commercial kitchen and industrial exhaust systems, featuring integrated gravity drainage and washable reusable construction, but requires adherence to specific cleaning and pressure-drop monitoring protocols.

Positive

  • High Separation Efficiency via Irregular Pore Geometry: The reticulated nickel foam core provides stochastic pore geometry that maximizes inertial impaction, forcing suspended oil droplets to collide and coalesce on the extensive internal surface area, achieving superior filtration performance across a wide droplet size distribution.
  • Integrated Gravity Drainage for Consistent Airflow: Captured oil coalesces and drains passively through precision corner leak holes into an integrated collection tray, minimizing filter saturation and maintaining stable airflow resistance throughout the duty cycle.

Trade-offs

  • Specific Cleaning Protocol Required: Optimal cleaning requires immersion in a heated alkaline detergent bath at 60–80°C with pH 10–12 for 15–30 minutes, followed by thorough rinsing. Concentrated strong acids (pH < 2) must be avoided despite the material's inherent acid resistance, adding procedural overhead.
  • Pressure Drop Monitoring for Maintenance: The filter must be cleaned when pressure drop reaches 150 Pa or visible grease accumulation exceeds 50% frontal area to maintain efficiency, requiring periodic monitoring and potentially increasing maintenance frequency in heavy-use applications.
