Laid Over, Pleated Depth Filter Media for Microbrewery Preclarification Applications
Profile UP pleated beer clarification filters combine the advantages of a continuously graded pore structure with a unique laid-over pleat geometry to increase effective filtration area and service life. When using this product, fewer cartridges are required for a given flow rate versus a traditional depth style cartridge. Thus, filter vessels are correspondingly smaller, resulting in lower capital and installation costs, as well as reduced operating costs.

2Typical initial clean delta p per 254 mm (10 inch) cartridge, water at 20 °C (68 °F).
For liquids with a viscosity greater than 1 cP, multiply the delta p by the viscosity.
