What Is Masuda?

Masuda, short for Masuda Seisakusho, also known as Masroll Systems, is a company that focuses on filtration solutions for various industries. The company is based in Japan and has created several filters that focus on removing various types of fluid from systems.

What Filters Does Masuda Make?

Masuda Seisakusho has several different types of filters that Fluitek can provide replacements for. Masuda makes the following types of filters:

Pleated Media Liquid Filters

Pleated media liquid filters provide particulate removal down to fine micron levels. Their high surface area design enables efficient filtration at high flow rates while retaining small particles. Examples of applications include filtration of cutting fluids, chemicals, pharmaceutical solutions, food and beverage processes, and plating baths.

These filters often feature replaceable cartridges for easy maintenance. The precisely pleated media can have thousands of pleats per square inch, maximizing dirt-holding capacity. Materials like polypropylene offer hydrophobic properties for liquids and resistance to chemical degradation.

Spin-On Elements

Spin-on filters are cylindrical liquid filters that are easy to install and replace. They are suitable for hydraulic, lubrication, fuel, and industrial liquid filtration applications in machinery requiring quick element changes, such as construction equipment, trucks, ships, and manufacturing machines.

Spin-on elements typically screw onto a base or housing for secure mounting. Internal filter media like bonded fiber or depth-loading paper removes particulate down to 5-50 microns, depending on the element. Some feature by-pass valves for pressure relief or anti-drain-back properties.

Bag Filters

Bag filters utilize replaceable filter bags to capture and remove particulate matter from gases and liquids. Common applications include dust collection from industrial operations like mining, cement, and power generation, as well as filtration in manufacturing processes and wastewater treatment.

Baghouse filters are often customized with features such as differing bag sizes, cleaning methods like reverse pulse jets, or housing materials for durability in various environments and dust types. Proper bag selection and cleaning frequencies are important to maximize filter life and efficiency.

Hydraulic Filters

Hydraulic filters protect systems by removing contaminants from hydraulic fluids. They extend fluid life and prevent degradation in equipment that uses hydraulics for movement and operation, such as construction machinery, aerial lifts, elevators, and industrial robotic systems.

Hydraulic filters from Masuda Manufacturing Co. typically contain pleated cartridges or depth media for large surface areas and high dirt holding capacity. 10-25 micron filtration protects sensitive components and allows for long hydraulic fluid Drain intervals of up to 1000 hours or more, depending on application and contamination levels.

Metal Elements

Metal element filters can withstand high pressures, flows, and temperatures. Examples of uses include breathing air systems, gas generation plants, sterile manufacturing processes, and engines requiring heavy-duty air intake filtration.

These robust filters commonly use sintered metal alloys like stainless steel for their media, allowing them to handle flows from 50-1000 SCFM. They provide 1-5 micron filtration suitable for critical gas streams and can often be cleaned for reuse applications to reduce operating costs.
