Sintered Porous Metal Filter Tube & Cartridge is used for filtering gases, steam, solvents and process liquids through rigid sintered stainless powder tubes that can be back-flushed and reused for years. ISO 4022 is the reference cited for it on drawings, datasheets and purchase orders.
What ISO 4022 Means for Sintered Porous Metal Filter Tube & Cartridge
The dimensions in the table below are supplied to suit ISO 4022. Where the standard sets requirements for the finished appliance, device or system, compliance testing of that assembly stays with its manufacturer; we supply the metal mesh part to the drawing and can provide material certificates and dimensional reports with the shipment.
Equivalent Standards
ISO 4022 defines permeability testing of sintered permeable metal media.

- Dimensions & wall: OD, length and wall thickness set flow and strength.
- End fittings: Welded caps, NPT, DOE, 222/226 O-ring or flanged ends.
When Sintered Porous Metal Filter Tube & Cartridge Is Not the Right Choice
Not economical for high-volume, low-value water filtration where disposable cartridges are cheaper.
