Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The MicroSentry™ MS Series Wound Filter Cartridges are designed for precision filtration with pore sizes ranging from 0.5 to 150 microns. They are available in various nominal lengths and outside diameters, making them versatile for different applications.
Materials and Construction: The filter media is constructed from materials such as fibrillated polypropylene, cotton, polyester, glass fiber, nylon, and rayon. The core materials include polypropylene, 304 and 316 stainless steel, and tin steel. These materials ensure compatibility with a wide range of chemicals and high-temperature applications.
Operating Parameters: The maximum operating temperature varies by material, with cotton and glass fiber having the highest temperature tolerance when paired with a metal core. The recommended change-out differential pressure is 20 psid (1.4 bar).
Compliance: FDA bleached cotton and FDA polypropylene filters comply with FDA requirements for food contact, as per CFR Title 21.
Applications: These cartridges are suitable for filtering oils, air/gas, petrochemicals, photo solutions, process water, food and beverage, solvents, and more. They are cost-effective alternatives to melt-blown, spun-bond, and resin-bonded cartridges.
Filter Housings: Shelco manufactures a range of filter housings, from single to multi-cartridge and bag filter housings, providing comprehensive filtration solutions.
Ordering Guide: The product code includes specifications for length, media, core, micron rating, core cover diameter, and end cap configuration, allowing for customized orders.
Performance Chart: A flow vs. pressure drop chart is provided, indicating the typical flow rate of polypropylene media per 10" cartridge length, with water as the test fluid at ambient temperature.
