Filtration & Process Systems Division

Industrial filtration protects equipment, products and people by removing contaminants from liquids, gases and air. Clean process fluids extend pump and valve life, improve product quality and help plants meet environmental and safety rules.

Industrial Filtration Categories

• Liquid filtration – bag, cartridge, lenticular and hydraulic oil filters
• Strainers – Y, basket, duplex and automatic strainers
• Filter housings – single and multi-element vessels
• Gas filtration and separation – coalescers, separators and dryers
• Dust filtration – collectors, cartridges, bags and ducting
• Filter presses and automatic cleaning filters – for high solids loads

Choosing a Filtration Solution

Start with the fluid, flow rate, contaminant type and the cleanliness you need. Then weigh first cost against element life and maintenance. Often the best value comes from staged filtration, with a strainer or coarse filter protecting a finer filter downstream.

Centro supplies industrial filtration products from leading manufacturers and can help you choose the right products for an efficient filtration system.

Commercial buildings, schools, hospitals and light industrial spaces depend on filtration to keep air clean and equipment running. Commercial filtration products are designed to be simple to install and change while meeting indoor air quality and building code requirements.

Commercial Filtration Products

• Pleated panel filters – MERV-rated filters for HVAC air handlers and rooftop units
• Bag and pocket filters – high dust-holding capacity for larger air systems
• HEPA filters – for cleanrooms, healthcare and critical environments
• Carbon filters – odor and VOC control for kitchens, labs and occupied spaces
• Water filters – sediment and carbon cartridges for building water and ice machines

Choosing a Filter

Check the filter dimensions and the MERV rating your system can handle. A higher efficiency filter improves air quality but can restrict airflow on older equipment. Setting a regular change schedule, or monitoring pressure drop, keeps fans efficient and stops dust from bypassing the filter.

Centro supplies commercial filtration for facility managers and contractors, and our team can help you match the right filter size and efficiency to your building.

Gas filtration and separation removes particulates, liquids, oil and moisture from compressed air and process gas streams. Clean, dry gas protects instruments, pneumatic equipment and products, and supports air quality standards.

Product Categories

• Compressed air filtration – filters, dryers, drains and FRLs
• Gas filtering – vessels, coalescers, gas filters and dryers
• Oil mist coalescing – remove oil aerosols
• Mufflers and silencers – exhaust noise control

Building a Treatment System

A typical compressed air system uses a particulate pre-filter, coalescing filter, dryer and point-of-use filtration. Size each component to actual flow and pressure. Drains and oil-water separators handle the collected condensate responsibly.

Centro supplies gas filtration and separation products and can help you meet your air quality targets.

Strainers protect pumps, valves, meters, heat exchangers and nozzles by removing debris from pipelines. They're a simple, low-cost first defense against damage and downtime.

Strainer Types

• Liquid strainers – Y and basket strainers for water and process lines
• Simplex and duplex strainers – single or continuous-flow baskets
• Automatic strainers – self-cleaning for heavy debris
• Non-ferrous strainers – bronze and plastic for corrosive service
• Gas and fabricated strainers – fuel gas and custom designs

Choosing a Strainer

Choose based on flow, debris load, screen size, pressure and fluid. Duplex and automatic strainers suit lines that can't shut down. Add differential pressure gauges to monitor clogging.

Centro offers strainers in many styles, materials and sizes for industrial piping.
