Description:
Extended Life filter bags are available in polypropylene or polyester in
micron ratings from 1-100, and have a lifetime of up to 4 times that of
the equivalent standard filter bag. Increased thickness of the filter
media compared to that of the equivalent standard filter bag enables an
increased retention of particles, resulting in a prolonged filter bag
lifetime.
The extended life filter media also has an asymmetric structure, which
acts to increase the filter bag lifetime and enhance filtration efficiency.
Progressively smaller particles are captured as the fluid follows a
tortuous path through the graded density media, stopping the filter bag
from blinding prematurely, whilst capturing a higher percentage of
particles.
Features:
- More efficient filtration process
- Minimisation of equipment downtime
- Minimisation of engineer exposure to process liquids
- Fewer bags to change and dispose of compared with standard felt
filter bags - more environmentally friendly
- Excellent at removing deformable particles such as gels
- Conforms to EC food contact directives
Additional Information:
As standard, the extended life filter bag is fully welded, maximising
filtration efficiency by eliminating fluid bypass through needleholes or
around a snap ring. The external surface is highly glazed, eliminating
fibre migration into the filtrate
