Duraclear® Polypropylene Depth-type Microfiber

An innovative alternative to ordinary depth filters that provide the economics of a depth filter with the superior performance of a pleated cartridge filter.

Duraclear® filters are pleated polypropylene (PP) depth type filters designed to provide exceptionally high dirt holding capacity and long service life. The Duraclear® filter medium is a network of continuous, self-bonded PP microfibers manufactured with precisely controlled fiber uniformity and density. The resulting filter porosity is extremely uniform, precise and consistent in service. Duraclear® filters do not channel or unload trapped contaminants under even the most extreme process conditions. Duraclear® filters contain no resin binders to break down or leach out in service.

Design Features
  • Nominal ratings ratings from 1 µm to 50 µm
  • Self-bonded, non fiber-releasing filter media
  • Pleated construction
  • Superior flow rates
  • High dirt holding capacity
  • No binders, adhesives or surfactants
  • Wide chemical compatibility
  • Long service life

Duraclear® filters are most appropriate for use when high quality filtration and economy are important.
