Peplyn HD | Filter Cartridges

PEPLYN HD filter cartridges have been designed to excel in liquid clarification applications where a consistent quality of filtrate is required from variable particle loadings of the process solution.

Description

PEPLYN HD filter cartridges have been developed to excel in liquid clarification applications where a consistent quality of filtrate is required from variable particle loadings of the process solution.

The filtration media balances a high surface area and closely controlled porosity, in a configuration that maximizes the cleaning efficiency of the cartridge through backwash procedures.

Capture of larger insoluble particulate is predominantly on the surface of the media, where the rigid, open pleat structure ensures that backwash cleaning provides effective removal. Smaller colloids are retained throughout the depth of the graded density PEPLYN media, providing accurately defined retention under the variable particle loading conditions typical in clarification applications.

Retention Characteristics

The retention characteristics of PEPLYN HD filter cartridges have been determined by a single-pass technique using suspensions of ISO 12103 Pt. 1 A2 Fine and A4 Course test dust in water

Manufacturing Traceability

Each filter cartridge displays the product name, product code and lot number. Additionally, each module displays a unique serial number providing full manufacturing traceability.
