Autoclaving

Multiple autoclaving for 30 minutes at 250˚F (121˚C) under no end load conditions is permitted provided cores are inserted. Filter elements should be allowed to cool to normal system operating temperatures prior to use. In-line steam sterilization is not recommended.

Technology description

The proprietary CoLD fiber technology is designed to ensure efficient use of the entire gradient depth of the filter. The CoLD MELT process creates a mixture of micro-thin fibers intermingled and thermally bonded with large diameter CoLD fibers, forming an integral support and fluid transport network. The large internal void area created enables these cartridges to capture more contaminant, while rigid support fibers hold filtration fibers firmly in place, preventing random unloading of contaminant and ensuring efficient filtration.

Flow vs. Differential Pressure for Application Sizing

Charts illustrating typical flow rate versus differential pressure for various filter grades are provided for application sizing. These charts display flow rates in gpm and lpm against differential pressure in psid and Bar, for water at 68°F (20°C). Flow rate is per 10" (25.4 cm) element. For liquids other than water, differential pressure should be multiplied by fluid viscosity (cP).
