amcMaxFlow

amcMaxFlow cartridge filters are specifically designed for today’s electronics filtration application at point-of-use with excellent flow rate characteristics and particle retention rates. Three different filter elements are available, i.e., modified hydrophilic polyethersulfone, melt blown hydrophobic polypropylene, and unsupported hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene to meet various filtration requirements such as filtration of ultrapure water, chemicals, oxidizing agents and organic solvents.

amcMaxFlow cartridge filters having up to 34 square feet of filtration area offer high flow rate and longer service life, particularly suited for users requiring fewer filter change outs, cleaner water, and chemicals for their applications.                                                                                       

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Performance Advantages

  • Each cartridge filter is thoroughly flushed with solvent and integrity tested in production to ensure product cleanliness
  • A variety of retention ratings are available to suit specific application needs
  • Three different filtration elements to choose from
  • The increased filtration area of cartridge filter provides higher flow rates in a long-life filter design                                    

Typical Applications

  • DI water and applications where weak acids/bases are used
  • Larger format flat panel displays
  • Point-of-use and distribution of pure chemicals and solvents
