PTFE Membrane Cartridge, 3.0 Micron Rating, GTM3-0, General Grade
GTM grade PTFE cartridges are designed for general purpose use wherever a cost effective PTFE membrane filter is required. Manufactured with inherently hydrophobic PTFE membrane, these cartridges are designed for use in the filtration of aggressive solvents, and as compressed gas and vent filters. These cartridges are found in the manufacturing processes of pharmaceutical companies, semi-conductor manufacturers and bulk chemical companies. the cartridge surface area, filter core design, pleat configuration and pleat packing density have been optimized to provide increased cartridge life resulting in lower filtration operating costs. Each cartridge is module and integrity tested.
