FPD Cartridge Filters Pleated Polypropylene Depth Media Applications Wine (clarification) Beer (clarification) Soft Drinks Bottled Water Process Water Process Chemicals Outside Diameter Filtration Area (Average - area varies with media thickness and porosity) Integrity Test Information FPD Pleated Depth Filter Cartridges have been designed to comply with all FDA requirements for the food industry. These cartridges have been rinsed with high purity (18+ megohm-cm) water to ensure that manufacturing debris will not to contaminate your product. This washing also ensures that extractables that may affect the taste of the product or other characteristics such as foaming or brightness are removed. FPD Cartridges have 99.9% retention efficiency at the rated pore size and are designed to give maximum throughput because of our unique graded density construction. This design also allows for filter cleaning and re-use in some applications. Construction Materials Filtration Media Pleated Polypropylene Depth Media Media Support Center Core Representative sample cartridges are factory tested for integrity before shipment. Field duplication of these tests is not practical because of the absence of commercial portable testing equipment.
