This Parker Avasan series meltblown filter cartridge is for multi-purpose filtration in industrial process applications. Its meltblown, polypropylene construction is finish-free, providing fluid purity and reducing foam, and it has Inter-layer bonding, which provides three-dimensional filtration and does not compress with increasing pressure. This filter's graded-density construction provides built-in prefiltration and longer life. This filter is Food and Drug Administration/Code of Federal Regulations (FDA/CFR) Title 21 compliant, and is acceptable for potable and edible liquid contact. This filter cartridge is suitable for use with potable water, process water, plating solutions, pre-filtration and chemical processing solutions.

Industrial process filter cartridges and bags remove pollutants and submicronic contaminants from a variety of process industry applications. When combined with companion vessels or housing units, the cartridges achieve microfiltration by trapping particles within the layers of the filter material within the cartridge. Filter cartridges are available in a multitude of configurations, sizes, and materials, such as membrane filters, pleated filters, and depth media, among others. Filter cartridges can be constructed of FDA-grade cotton, rayon, and polypropylene, or industrial grade polypropylene or cotton, for example. Some have solid cores, which are commonly made of tinned steel, stainless steel, or polypropylene. Industrial process filters and bags are used in a wide range of applications, including food processing, chemical processing, petroleum oils, paints, inks and coatings, among others.
