New bag filter system
CUNO has introduced DuoFLO Filter Systems, a new product designed for both new and retrofit bag filter systems. The system is an advanced alternative to standard bag filters. The DuoFLO filter medium, featuring a true graded-porosity structure combined with a 62 % increase in filter surface area, ensures that DuoFLO filters provide up to four times the service life of conventional felt filter bags, superior contaminant removal efficiency, enhanced flow per filter element and reduced total filtration costs. The new design incorporates an innovative geometry of both filter element and support basket, which provides 100% downstream support of the media. This eliminates the potential for filter element rupture and the resulting gross contamination of the downstream effluent with previously removed particles. In addition, the unique design of the element reduces filter element hold-up fluid volume by 67% (when compared with conventional bags) to help minimise worker exposure to process fluids. DuoFLO elements are available in polypropylene filter media with nominal removal ratings from 1 to 100 microns. These polypropylene filters are 21 CFR compliant and can therefore be used for pharmaceutical applications such as particle removal in fine chemical production, particulate removal in water systems and many other applications where high flow rates, low differential pressures and high dirt holding capacity are required.
