Filtration
Efficiency:
POREX
Radial Cartridges are classification type filters that
effectively remove particles at and above their respective
ratings while allowing most smaller particles to pass
through. POREX Radial Cartridges maintain their high
particle removal efficiency for consistent, reproducible
results throughout the life of the filter.
Filter performance is often expressed in terms of percent efficiency, defined as the ratio of upstream particle concentration compared to the downstream concentration that has passed through a filter body (multiplied by 100).
The
Initial Retention Efficiency results per ASTM 795-88
are based on a single pass using a 2.65”diameter
cartridge with 10” length at a flow rate of 3 gpm/ft2 of
water with ISO Fine or Course Test Dust.
Flow
vs. Pressure Drop*:
The specific pressure drop values (psi/gpm) per 10” cartridge are provided for each filter grade. POREX Radial Cartridges exhibit superior flow characteristics to other cartridges with comparable micron ratings. The benefits of lower pressure drop are longer cartridge life, higher throughput and lower overall cost.
*
Based on cumulative data supplied by an independent
laboratory. Flow rates are based on the media and may
be limited by the core of the cartridge or the cartridge
housing.
