What is filtered steam defined as?

Filtered steam is defined as dry saturated steam that has been processed to remove impurities, with a filtration level of 2.8 microns. This level of filtration is crucial in applications where steam purity is of utmost importance, such as in food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and various industrial processes. By ensuring that the steam is free from contaminants, it guarantees that the steam will not introduce any unwanted particles or substances into the systems it interacts with. This not only maintains product quality but also protects equipment from damage due to deposits or corrosion caused by impurities.

The specified micron size indicates the fine level of filtration that has been achieved, which is vital for achieving the desired steam characteristics for high-quality applications.
