Lower total costs due to higher solids loading capabilities

Reduced labor costs from fewer change-outs

Fewer spent filters resulting in reduced disposal costs

Reduced product loss due to lower hold up volumes

User friendly because it is easier and quicker to change one filter bag versus several 10" cartridges
