Applications

Pre-Filtration - Pre-filters serve an important role in the removal of undesirable material from process streams and by protecting comparatively higher priced final filters, increasing their service life. Most common type of pre-filter in liquid filtration is a depth filter, some of which are listed below.

• Melt-Blown or Spun Bonded Filter Cartridges
• String Wound Filter Cartridges
• Pleated Microfiber Cartridges
• Bag Filtration

Clarification - Clarification filters remove contaminants from a fluid stream primarily by direct interception and sieving, where the unwanted particles are caught in or on the surface of the filter medium. Both depth and membrane type filters are used in this application, some of which are listed below.

• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Filter Sheet Media
• Stacked Disc

Sterile Filtration - Membranes are used to sterilize liquid reagents, remove particulate contamination, and clarify solutions prior to further processing. Products used in these environments are optimized for biological, pharmaceutical, and sterilizing, and are usually available in pleated cartridge and capsule style filters, such as below.

• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Capsule Filter Cartridges

Bio-Burden Control – Filters used in this application are to control bacteria and other microorganisms in food & beverage and process systems to avoid spoilage, improve product quality and extend shelf life. Listed below are both filtration and water treatment type products used in this capacity.

• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Capsule Filter Cartridges
• Ultraviolet Water Systems

Tangential Flow Filtration - Tangential flow filtration (TFF) is a rapid and efficient method for separation and purification of biomolecules that applies to a wide range of biological fields such as immunology, protein chemistry, molecular biology, biochemistry, and microbiology. It is primarily used in concentration, diafiltration (desalting and buffer exchange), and fractionation of large from small biomolecules. It can also be used for clarification and removal of cells as well as cellular debris from fermentation or cell culture broths.

• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Capsule Filter Cartridges
• Crossflow Membrane Filters

Venting & Gas Filtration – Venting & gas filtration provide protection to the workers and your equipment by acting as barriers on air lines. They contain hydrophobic media, which prevent the entry of water and aerosols into sensitive equipment and also protect the lab environment from aerosolized pathogens. Vent filters can also enable air to enter and exit vessels such as bioreactors, while maintaining the sterility of the interior environment.

• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Capsule Filter Cartridges

Air Filtration – Various types of air filtration is used to remove dust and other contaminants for the purpose of cleaning the air we breathe, as well as protect equipment used in building systems, power plants, and other manufacturing type operations.

• HVAC Filtration
• Dust Collection
• Gas Turbine Inlet Filtration

Hydraulic & Lubrication Fluid Filtration – Filtration is used to filter contaminants from hydraulic and lube oils in order to protect the equipment and machinery against orifice blockage, component wear, formation of rust or other oxidation, chemical compound formation, and depletion of additives and oil degradation.

• Desiccant Breathers
• Hydraulic & Lube Oil Filtration Products

Compressed Air & Vacuum Filtration – Filtration to prevent submicronic contaminants in compressed air systems from plugging orifices of sensitive pneumatic instrumentation, wearing out seals, eroding system components, reducing the absorptive capacity of desiccant air/gas dehydrators, fouling heat transfer surfaces, reducing air tool efficiency, and damaging finished products.

• Compressed Air & Vacuum Filtration

Water Filtration & Purification – Treating or filtering water by various methods for the purpose of attaining a certain quality level for use in a multitude of systems and processes, and for consumption.

• Melt-Blown or Spun Bonded Filter Cartridges
• String Wound Filter Cartridges
• Pleated Microfiber Cartridges
• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Bag Filtration
• Ultraviolet Water Systems
• Water Treatment Systems

Beer, Wine, Mead & Distilled Spirits – Filtration is used in this application for the purpose of removing impurities in the making of the product and to clarify and remove microbial concerns for packaging to a particular quality level.  The use of course, medium, fine and ultrafine types of filtration are used to accomplish this task. 

• Pleated Microfiber Cartridges
• Membrane Filter Cartridges
• Filter Sheet Media
• Stacked Disc
• Bag Filtration

Wastewater Treatment & Reclaim – Filter and treat drainage and process type water for the purpose of reclaiming it for reuse or to bring to an acceptable quality for disposal to public sewer systems. There are a multitude of treatment and filtering systems to accomplish this task.

• Melt-Blown or Spun Bonded Filter Cartridges
• String Wound Filter Cartridges
• Bag Filtration
• Gravity Filter Systems
• Water Treatment Systems
