Bag Filter Cartridge

Effective removal of particulate from liquid applications • Inside to outside flow for positive contaminant capture • Available in a wide variety of materials including polypropylene and polyester • Standard particle removal ratings from 0.5 to 800 micron • Standard filter bags fit vessels and most competitive models

Cone & Basket Strainers

Designed to protect fluid and gas handling equipment by removing debris during the start-up of a system • Available in 316 stainless steel or carbon steel • Flanged ID (inside diameter) is pressed and welded to prevent possible failures and cone/basket ending up down stream

Depth Filter Cartridge

Available in a wide variety of materials • Absolute micron ratings down to 1 micron • Standard filter cartridges are available for 3L Filters products and most competitive models
