Longer Life & Fewer Changeouts
| Osmonics has extended its patented* blown microfiber technology to meet the market requirements for a pure polypropylene depth filter with exceptional dirt-holding capability. This translates to longer life and fewer changeouts than existing string-wound or resin-bonded filters. The resulting product, Purtrex, is an exceptional value for general applications where long-life, high purity and low changeout frequency is required. |
High Dirt-Holding Capacity
- True-graded density captures particles throughout entire filter depth
- High dirt-holding capacity means longer life and fewer changeouts which translates to money saved
- Lower density at the surface of the filter with progressively higher density towards the center
- No surface blinding, which reduces flow and increases filter changeouts
|
Pure Polypropylene Construction
- Thermally bonded microfibers
- Contains no wetting agents, solvents, antistatic agents or binders
- Wide chemical compatibility
- Incinerates to trace ash for easy disposal
- Meets the requirements of the FDA for food and beverage contact
- No leachables or extractables
|
Proven Manufacturing Process
- Automated, consistent manufacturing process assures reliable performance and repeatable results
- Thermal and vacuum finishing procedures eliminate potential manufacturing debris
|
Wide Range Lengths and Adapters
- Standard lengths fit most housings—custom lengths can also be provided
- Wide range of polypropylene end-adapters including gaskets, extended cores and Osmonics® patented* self-seal polypropylene springs
