Service High Capacity PVDF Cartridge Filters

Product catalog summary
Overview: The GPVWL filters are designed using high capacity hydrophilic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane, known for its high dirt holding capacity, excellent throughput, and high efficiency retention. These filters are primarily used for critical prefiltration applications across various liquid processing industries.
Construction Materials: The filters are constructed with PVDF membrane for filtration media, supported by polypropylene for media support, end caps, center core, and outer support cage. The sealing method used is thermal bonding, with O-rings available in materials such as Buna, Viton®, EP, Silicone, and FEP encapsulated options.
Dimensions: The filters are available in lengths ranging from 5 to 40 inches and have an outside diameter of 2.75 inches.
Integrity and Operating Parameters: Each manufacturing lot undergoes integrity testing to ensure consistent performance. The maximum differential pressure is 50 psid forward and 40 psid reverse at 20°C. The operating temperature is up to 82°C at 10 psid in water, with a recommended changeout pressure of 35 psid.
Sanitization and Sterilization: The filters can be sanitized using filtered hot water, autoclave, or in-line steam, with specific temperature and time parameters. Chemical sanitization is also possible using standard industry chemicals.
Applications: GPVWL filters are suitable for use in process water, chemicals, DI water, cosmetics, inks, and dyes.
Flow Rate: The typical flow rates vary by pore size, with a range from 1.1 GPM for 0.22 μm to 7.0 GPM for 1.0 μm pore size.
Ordering Information: The order numbers are determined by variables such as pore size, end cap type, cartridge length, and O-ring material.
Compliance and Quality Assurance: The filters meet FDA and EC compliance standards for food and beverage processing. They are manufactured in an ISO 9001:2008 certified facility, ensuring high quality and cost-effective filtration solutions.
