Professional competence across all areas of application

Individual filter systems customized to your requirements

From challenging ambient conditions to limited space or high contaminant concentrations – our engineers will work with you to develop the ideal filter concept for your plant.

Power plants in coastal or onshore regions

Protecting turbines. Increasing availability. Reducing downtimes.

In the power generation industry, where an uninterrupted supply of power is critical, reliability is the highest priority. Freudenberg filtration systems make a valuable contribution here. They protect turbines from damage, improve the availability and extend maintenance schedules.

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 (ISO ePM1 > 95%).

Power plants in coastal or onshore regions

Power plants in regions near deserts

Effectively satisfy defined requirements.

Power plants for generating electricity near deserts are frequently subjected to special environmental conditions, such as high dust loads from desert storms or high morning humidity. These factors impact the selection of a suitable intake air filter system.

Filter cartridges have proven themselves in practice here, frequently used as a cylindrical/conical set that can be operated with optimized pulse-jet cleaning. Depending on the requirements, filter cartridges are available even in EPA filter classes (correspond to ISO ePM1 90%).

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.
