Download:Pleated Depth Filter Designed Specifically
for Particle Trap Filtration in Beer
This Pall Profile Star TF filter has been designed specifically for use as a particle trap filter to remove filter aid particles from bright beer. The filter utilizes the proven and successful Pall technique of varying the fiber diameter to produce a pore size gradient from coarse (upstream) to fine (downstream), while maintaining a high open area throughout the depth of the filter medium. This proprietary construction has been optimized to deliver the benefits of both traditional pleated and depth style trap filters - the ideal combination. Features and Benefits
- Construction optimized for consistent performance under variation in flow or ΔP increase
- Filter medium designed to prevent fiber migration into the filtered beer
- Very high contaminant holding capacity
- Designed for reverse flow cleaning to optimize filter service life
- All polypropylene construction
- No surfactants or binder resins used in manufacture
- Consistent and verifiable filtration performance
- Long service life, low filtration costs
- High flow rates
- Excellent resistance to typical brewery use chemicals
- Continuous construction without side seam for durability and security of use
- Extra security provided by bayonette lock and double o-ring seal
- All materials meet the requirements for biological safety tests per USP for class VI
plastic at 121 ºC
