amcPolyFlow pleated cartridge is constructed with all polypropylene components with optimized pleat height and density. It provides universal chemical compatibility, lower pressure loss, and long life in demanding process applications including pharmaceutical, biological, chemical, electronic, food and beverage filtration.
amcPolyFlow cartridge is available in 7 pore sizes from 0.2 μm to 60 μm to match the flow, differential pressure, and retention requirements of virtually every microfiltration need. No adhesives are used in the fabrication of chemically resistant amcPolyFlow cartridge.
amcPolyFlow cartridge functions equally well as a prefiltration in water and aggressive chemicals and as a final filter where nominal-rated microfiltration is required.
Performance Advantages:
