Products Pleated Filter Cartridges Pleated Depth Cartridges

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.

Features & Benefits

Maximized pleat design for greater surface area, ensuring longer service life, fewer change outs and reduced operating costs

FDA Title 21 compliant for food and beverage contact

Lower pressure drops, which yield higher flow rates and reduced processing time

100% polypropylene construction offers a wide range of chemical compatibility

Thermally bonded construction ensures a cleaner filtrate

Special Pleat Option: Optimized pleat geometry

Special Pleat Option: Expected surface area improvements of as much as 25%
