Product catalog summary
Product Specifications
The Filtrafine Pleated-Flow Series Filter Cartridges are constructed using polypropylene for the filter media, hardware, and support material, with thermal bond sealing. Gaskets and O-rings are available in materials such as Silicone, EPDM, Buna-N, Viton, and Teflon Encapsulated Viton. The cartridges have an outside diameter of 2.67 inches and are available in various lengths ranging from 4 inches to 40 inches.
Performance Specifications
These cartridges feature a proprietary filter media that ensures consistent performance and a fixed pore construction that resists dirt unloading at maximum differential pressure. The polypropylene construction offers wide chemical compatibility, and the high surface area allows for high flow rates and long service life, reducing maintenance costs. The cartridges are manufactured in a Class 10,000 clean room under an ISO 9001 certified quality system.
Operating Conditions
The maximum operating pressure is 75 psid at 68°F and 40 psid at 150°F, with a recommended change-out differential pressure of 35 psid. Retention ratings range from 0.2 to 30 microns.
Ordering Information
The materials used are FDA listed for food contact applications, and all polypropylene components meet USP Class VI-121°C plastics specifications for biological safety. The cartridges are free of surfactants, resins, binders, and adhesives. They can be autoclaved multiple times at 250°F for 30 minutes but are not recommended for in-line steam sterilization. They can be sanitized with hot water at 180°F for 1 hour.
Flow Rate vs. Differential Pressure
The flow rate is specified per 10-inch cartridge, and for liquids other than water, the differential pressure should be multiplied by the fluid viscosity in centipoises. The document includes a graph showing the clean pressure drop versus flow rate for various retention ratings.
