Poly-MAXX G / Pur-Pleat G Nominally Rated Polypropylene Depth Cartridges
Strainrite's nominally rated polypropylene depth cartridges are designed to reduce overall filtration costs when compared to spunbonded, stringwound, and nominally-rated pleated cartridges. This polypropylene media is designed and manufactured on state-of-the-art meltblowing equipment to Strainrite's strict specifications for high solids-loading requirements for a variety of prefiltration applications.

Product Overview
These filters are constructed using the latest high-speed thermal bonding equipment in a clean environment to ensure superior product cleanliness and thermal and chemical compatibility. All of these depth cartridges are manufactured using 100% virgin polypropylene materials that comply with FDA Title 21 of The Code of Federal Regulations for food and beverage contact.
The Poly-MAXX G now offers a Special Pleat option in micron ratings of 0.25, 0.5, 1. This option provides expected surface area improvements of as much as 25%. This optimized pleat geometry option was developed for the filtration of process fluids that require a high degree of particle retention and/or constant bacterial barrier for effective sterilization.
