Reliable Turbine Performance for Power Plants
Air intake filter concepts appropriate for all environmental conditions
In the power generation industry an uninterrupted supply of power is critical and maximum reliability is essential. Freudenberg filter systems are optimally designed for requirements in regions coastal, onshore, and anything in between.
Power plants in coastal or onshore regions
Protecting turbines. Increasing availability. Reducing downtimes.
For gas turbines and compressors of power plants near the coast or located onshore, two-stage filter concepts generally achieve ideal results. The first filter stage is typically equipped with pocket filters, the second with cassette filters. Particles and moisture will never have a chance. With a three-stage system, it is even possible to achieve EPA purity level.
Power plants in desert regions
Effectively satisfy defined requirements.
Power plants for generating electricity situated near deserts are subject to particularly adverse environmental conditions such as high dust loads from desert storms, or high morning humidity. These factors influence the selection of a suitable intake air filter system.
The correct selection of filter cartridges has proven to be an effective barrier. A cylindrical/conical set, for instance, can be operated with optimized pulse-jet cleaning and depending on the requirements, are available in EPA filter classes.

Despite the elements
Power plants profit from reliable filtration solutions
Inadequate filters in power plants endanger process reliability. If turbines fail, this quickly leads to bottlenecks in the power supply. Filter solutions from Freudenberg Filtration Technologies are making two power plants in Ratchaburi, Thailand both more reliable and more powerful.
Extended cartridge lifetime with more power output
GTS double-cylindrical cartridges master difficult challenges
A coastal power plant in Saudi Arabia was equipped in a first phase with conical-cylindrical cartridges for intake air filtration. In phase two, one test unit was converted to GTS double-cylindrical design. This proved to be very successful in terms of filter lifetime, reduction in overall pressure drop and turbine power output, so that all units will be converted to the double-cylindrical concept. Evidence showed that harsh environmental conditions with sandstorms could not affect efficiency.

spiderMaxx stands for a generation of casette filters that sets standards in terms of stability and torsional rigidity thanks to the innovative filter frame design. Even under high load, the casette filters provide peak performance for efficient energy generation and minimal downtime in power plants.
The high mechanical strength of the material offers dimensional stability throughout operational lifetime, even when handling large air volumes.
The T 60 sets the standard for pocket filter performance and high dust capacity. It's engineered to reliably stop aggressive, abrasive particles in demanding applications and extreme climatic conditions
The T 90's, with extended surface area and tear resistant pockets, is engineered for high dust holding capacity, long service life, and the arrest of aggressive and abrasive particles under virtually all environmental conditions.
Viledon MV extended surface V-style filters are specifically designed for systems that have stringent requirements for clean air quality.
Offering high operational reliability and cost-efficiency they are ideally suited for intake air prefiltration at coastal, offshore, and other high humidity locations. Here they provide optimum protection of the subsequent filter stages keeping them dry thereby extending the operational lifetime.
A new generation of powerful, efficient, economic and resilient cassette filters. With it's deeper filter depth, this series offer high operational reliability and cost optimization, while increasing the efficiency of turbine performance.
Viledon MVPGT-21 cassette filters offer an extended filtration surface for an increased lifetime cycle. They are particularly well suited for intake air filtration of gas turbines and compressors, especially for onshore locations.
