SupaPore FPG
SupaPore FPG Microfiltration cartridges have been designed as effective membrane prefilters and as final polishing filters for all liquid processing applications. Manufactured using polypropylene hardware, the SupaPore FPG utilizes superior Borosilicate Glass Microfibre as the media. This highly efficient pleated depth media offers excellent dirt holding capacity and retention levels, making it an ideal clarifier in many liquid processing applications. Its thermally bonded construction ensures minimal extractables, and its high filtration efficiency makes it an excellent choice for use in beverage, fine chemical, and water treatment processes. The construction utilizes thermal welding techniques to bond all the components, thereby eliminating adhesives, minimizing extractables, and optimizing cartridge integrity. The SupaPore FPG cartridges use pleated depth media and are available in Standard and Junior sizes with micron ratings from 0.3µm to 10µm in the full range of industry-standard lengths and end cap styles.
