PureFlo® Polypropylene Media filter capsules are highly retentive, graded porosity, pleated polypropylene media filters that have been specially designed for clarification and prefiltration applications.
- High flow rates and low pressure drops
- Excellent thermal and chemical compatibility
- Superior filter lifetime and process throughputs
- Consistent and reproducible particulate removal
- Rapid installation and reduced downtime
- Reduced chemical handling and hazardous waste disposal
The graded porosity design removes particles in sequence by size – larger particles by the more open outer layers and smaller particles by the tighter inner layers. The outer layers act as a pre-filter while the inner layers provide the absolute rating at the specified pore size. This efficiently spreads the contaminants throughout the media matrix resulting in superior contaminant holding capacity, lifetime, and pressure drop as compared to other media cartridges.
No adhesives, binders, or surfactants are used in the manufacturing process The non-woven media does not allow for migration into the process fluid, thereby reducing the potential for extractables and downtime. Furthermore, the allpolypropylene construction provides excellent thermal and chemical compatibility with low and high pH chemicals.
