LOFMET |
![]() |
LOFMET filter cartridges are cylindrical filter elements fabricated with ss 304 or 316 mesh fabric. They are available with a plain or pleated (enlarged filter area) outer surface. LOFMET filter cartridges are especially recommended for high temperature and pressure conditions, i.e. as commonly is the case with high viscous liquids. They may be chemically, mechanically or thermaly cleaned and are therefore often economical and environmental alternatives to single use cartridges in low solid contaminated liquids. |

Length | ||
9 3/4" (248 mm) plain + pleated, 19 1/2" (496 mm) plain, 29 1/4" (744 mm) plain and 39 1/2" (1000 mm) plain |
||
Diameter | ||
O.D. 65 mm - I.D. 27 mm or 36 mm |
||
Material of construction | ||
Core and end caps : SS 304 or 316, wire mesh SS 304 or 316 |
||
Gasket material | ||
Flat gasket : Buna N (max. 150°C), EPDM (max. 175°C), FPM (max. 200°C) or PTFE (max. 250°C) |
||
Max. differential pressure | ||
The
plain filter element can withstand, without deformation, 20 bar of differential
pressure. The pleated filter element size 9 3/4" (248 mm) can withstand, without deformation to 6 bar of differential pressure. It is good practice to clean or replace the filter elements when the pressure drop reaches 2,5 bar. |
||
Temperature range | ||
The
plain filter element finds application in a range from -50°C to
+250°C.
