# Industrial Specification: Filtration Unit

## 1. Technical Definition
A component within a coolant system designed to remove contaminants and particulate matter from the circulating coolant fluid.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-6.0 bar differential pressure across filter media**. Failure boundary: **8.0 bar differential pressure causing media rupture or housing deformation exceeding 0.5 mm**, Mechanism: **Excessive pressure differential across porous media exceeding yield strength of polypropylene fibers (35 MPa) or aluminum housing (280 MPa), leading to mechanical failure via plastic deformation**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.
