PLACON PLEATED FILTER CARTRIDGES - PV SERIES

Placon PPV series filter cartridges are typical filters containing nominally-rated, all polypropylene pleated media for fine filtration and high efficiency widely applied in various industrial filtration processes. The design of multi-layer filter intensifies the cartridge structure to maintain a consistent filtration; the depth type main filter traps the contaminants in different depths to give large dirt holding capacity; the structure with optimized pleat height and density provides the lowest possible pressure drop and maximum service life. Placon PPV series pleated filter cartridges are entirely polypropylene of thermoplastically bonded support constructions which eliminate risk of extractable from sealing materials and offer virtually universal chemical compatibility. Placon PPV series filter cartridges are available in different micron ratings to match the flow, pressure drop, and retention requirements of most liquid and gas micron filtration applications.

Pleated design maximizes dirt-holding capacity Durable polypropylene media resists bacterial attack Suitable for municipal or well applications. Nominal 1,5,10 & 30 - Micron rating.
Plated cartridges are manufactured from a durable polypropylene media. They are resistant to bacterial attack and compatible with a wide range of Chemicals. The high porosity of the media provides higher flow rares and dirt holding, while maintaining extremely low pressure drop. The media is plated around a polypropylene core for added strength and The ends are immersed in a thermo setting vinyl plastisol. Embedding and sealing each end of the pleat block in this fashion fuses the three components together a unitized end cap and gasket. The overlap seam is conically welded to reduce internal bypass, improving filtration efficiency. Pleated cartridges provide nominal 1,5,10 & 30 - micron filtration and are highly effective at reducing medium / fine particles in a variety of residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Placon PAC cartridges are dual - propose filters, which provide depth filtration efficacy as well as adsorption capability by its sandwich design.
The outer layer acts as a pre-filter to intercept gels and large particles that can cause premature carbon filter plugging.
The activated carbon in the middle layer feature high adsorption performance with low pressure drop.

The inner layer acts as a final filter to remove fine particles and unloading carbon then consequently ensures the constant quality of filtrates. To optimize the adsorption efficiency the customized formulas are available forspeciai orders by different rations of activated carbon types in various granularity and density. With our technical support, Placon PAC cartridges are specified to fulfill your application requirements.
