2Fluids which do not swell, soften, or adversely affect any of the filter components.
3Recommended change-out differential pressure is 2.4 bard (35 psid), provided the maximum differential pressure (based on temperature) is not exceeded.
PERFORMANCE
Typical Flow Rates4 for Chemical and Polymer, and Oil and Gas Applications
Typical Flow vs. Differential Pressure for Application Sizing
Flow rate is for a 25.4 cm (10 in) cartridge. For liquids other than water, multiply differential pressure by fluid viscosity (cP).
Typical Flow Rates for Food and Beverage Applications
4Typical initial clean delta p per 254 mm (10 inch) cartridge, water at 20° C (68° F). For liquids with viscosity greater than 1cP, multiply the delta p by the viscosity.
