MicroSentry R Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The MicroSentry™ R Series Resin Bonded Filter Cartridges are designed for economical and efficient filtration in high-temperature and viscous fluid environments. They feature a gradient density construction for enhanced dirt holding capacity and consistent retention efficiency. The grooved exterior increases surface area, extending service life. Available pore sizes range from 0.5 to 125 microns, with cores made from polypropylene, tin, or stainless steel for structural strength.
Applications: These filter cartridges are suitable for a variety of applications including printing inks, paints, varnishes, coatings, solvents, thinners, acids, antifreeze, coolants, lubricating oils, fuels, photoresists, insecticides, and process water.
Specifications:
  • Pore Sizes: 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 10, 25, 50, 75, 125 microns
  • Nominal Lengths: 9 3/4", 10", 19 1/2", 20", 29 1/4", 30", 39", 40"
  • Materials of Construction: Filter Media: Phenolic Resin Bonded Glass Fiber; Core: Polypropylene, Tin, Stainless Steel; Cover: Cotton, Polypropylene
  • Maximum Temperature and Pressure Drops: Polypropylene: 160°F (71°C), 75 psi (5 bar); Tin and Stainless Steel: 300°F (148°C), 100 psi (7 bar); Maximum water temperature: 150°F (71°C)
  • Recommended Change-out Differential Pressure: 25 – 30 psid (1.6 – 2.1 bar)
Filter Housings: Shelco manufactures a range of filter housings, from single cartridge to multi-cartridge and bag filter housings, suitable for various filtration needs.
Ordering Guide: The ordering code includes model, length, core material, micron rating, and optional features. Example: R10-T5C.
Flow vs. Pressure Drop: A chart is provided to illustrate the typical flow rate per 10" cartridge length, with water as the test fluid at ambient temperature. The flow rate increases linearly with multiple lengths, but higher flows increase differential pressure across the housing.
