Service life varies with the type of filter, filtration precision, and contaminant volume. Although we can suggest a service life as estimated based on past experience, such figures do not constitute a guarantee of filter performance.
Consequently, we recommend field testing if maintenance (element replacement) cannot be easily scheduled.
Because we serve the fine chemical and medical fields, we focus on ensuring products are clean.
Additionally, an extensive track record (and associated expertise) allow us to provide products on a special-order basis that other companies would find difficult to produce.
We draw on the experience with applicable laws and plant projects that we've accumulated since our founding to design and test products while exercising care to ensure that specifications are not excessive with regard to safety.
If you can provide information about your specifications (operating conditions), a sales representative will select the optimal filter and contact you.
For casings, warranty terms are determined at the time of order. However, accidents caused by acts of God such as natural disasters fall outside the scope of warranty coverage.
Other issues not covered by product warranties include use in contravention of design conditions (such as flow rate and temperature), damage resulting from improper storage or maintenance, and modification without consulting with us.
For filter elements, we do not guarantee service life. However, we will replace any filter element that is found to exhibit clear damage or deformation in shape at the time of delivery.
For filter elements, prices vary widely (from hundreds of yen to hundreds of thousands of yen) based on the material and filtration precision.
For casings, prices range from resin products that cost about ¥10,000 to special-order metal products (as needed to satisfy legal requirements or accommodate high pressure levels) that cost more than ¥10 million.
Please get in touch, and we’ll have a sales representative contact you with a filter that meets your operating conditions and its price.
We always strive to lower costs. If you provide information about your current installation, we will propose whatever cost savings we can identify.

It depends on the specifications.
Although it takes about two to three weeks to compile quotes for applications that require legal- or plant-compliant casings, it takes from one day to one week to provide quotes for other applications.
For filter elements, standard products in inventory can be shipped on the same day, but build-to-order elements take about three to four weeks. For casings, standard products in inventory can be shipped in three to four days. Please contact us for more information about delivery times for build-to-order products.
