The laid-over pleat modular cartridge pleating geometry in combination with a narrow core design allows for a high effective filtration area per filter element, resulting in, small foot-print filter systems with improved process efficiencies.

AB style filters are disposable 125 mm (5 inch), 254 mm (10 inch), 508 mm (20 inch), 762 mm (30 inch) and 1016 mm (40 inch) modular element cartridges to be used with stainless steel housing assemblies. Fitted with 226 o-rings as standard suitable for medium to large scale manufacturing operations (100 L to >1000 L).

These filters can be supplied encapsulated as the Kleenpak™ Nova capsule format.

A validation package for Fluorodyne EX EDT Filters supports the assurance of safety within your process.
