Sock filter assembly

Requests for sock filters come up regularly and alas, there doesn't appear to be a ready source of the stainless canisters required to house them in our assemblies, soooo I drew this one to share.

It uses 1 micron 4" X 8" polyester felt sock filters readily available from Duda Diesel, and doesn't violate any existing IP that I'm aware of.

The filter is clamped to the drilled and tapped lid, using a custom retaining ring, and all the rest of the assembly is off the shelf. The lid and ring are the only manufactured parts.

We could also attach a cooling coil with insulated jacket, which I show in the last schematic.

4x8 sock? Do you mean 4x48? Also why not just zip tie or tie off the top of the sock instead of using custom lid mounts?

No, I mean 4" X 8". The socks come with a ring or lip seal, not a string tie at the top. Consider the effects of back pressure.

Offer way more surface area for filtration and aid in speed... 2 dimensional filters are wack.

What MS said. Quickly and reliably filter down to 1 micron without blinding, for things like inline dewax.

As the filter blinds, the internal pressure builds. Like putting a rubber on a garden hose and turning it on, the sock will try to escape the pressure, so needs to be adequately restrained.

Aha. I was thinking in terms of material column socks, not filtration. Good stuff.
