Contour
Contour spun bonded cartridge filters utilize the very latest in high-strength fibre production to create a large diameter core-free element (core option available). Engineered to operate in high-flow applications, the high-capacity, low-pressure loss media is an ideal choice for a wide range of water and chemical processes. No resins, binders, or other materials are used in the manufacturing process, resulting in a fibre-free, uncontaminated process fluid. Utilizing the housing’s own integral support core, this cartridge shows excellent performance in terms of life, disposal costs, and overall cost effectiveness compared to conventional cartridges.
Contour cartridges are produced using a unique manufacturing process resulting in the following features:
- High Efficiency Filter Media:
- Available from 5 to 100µm+
- Consistent reliable performance
- Unique Construction:
- Core-free design
- Free from resin binders
- High void volume, resulting in low clean ?p and excellent dirt holding capacity
- Thermally bonded fibre matrix stops fibre migration
- One piece construction up to 1013mm (40”)
Product Features:
- 100% polypropylene or nylon 6 throughout
- Materials meet US FDA Title 21
- Meets the requirements for food contact as detailed in European Regulation (EC) Number 1935/2004
- WRAS listed and Reg 31 approved for use in UK potable water supplies (PP only)
- No resins, binders, or anti-static agents
- True graded density for enhanced life
Contour fibres are blown continuously onto a central production mandrel, without the need for resin binders or lubricants. This results in a one-piece, core-free construction that is resistant to unloading and media shedding. True depth filtration results from the closely controlled manufacturing process and environment, which also ensures a consistent and reliable high-quality element. Elements are available in two standard sizes: 508mm (20”) and 1013mm (40”), doubl
