As an industry provider of depth filtration media for over eighty years, ErtelAlsop combines the knowledge, experience and innovation necessary to supply the cosmetic, electric utility, food and beverage and pharmaceutical markets with a vast selection of filter cloth, depth filter sheets, filter pads and lenticular stacked disc filter.

Depth filter media. Clarisolve® depth filters are the first primary clarification offering with a gradient density structure specifically designed to the particle size distributions of pretreated feed streams. - Find MSDS or SDS, a COA, data sheets and more information. 1. A filter formed by at least one continuous sleeve (10) of depth filter medium without any side seal provided with pleats (11) extending along the length of the filter medium and parallel to one another around the filter medium, the filter medium being formed by a fibrous mass of non-woven synthetic polymeric micro-fibres, said micro-fibres being substantially free of fibre-to-fibre bonding. The filter matrix specifically developed for the P-series depth filter media provides particle retention rates down to 0.05 μm and enables optimal pre-filtration of biological products as well as protection of downstream process steps. Eaton‘s depth filter sheets, capsules, cartridges and filtration systems are made from top-quality depth filter media for a wide range of applications in food and beverage industries, chemical, fine and specialty chemical, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries as well as in biotechnology.

A depth media filter element is used most often as the primary filter for contamination removal and offers finer filtration—much finer—than any surface media can offer. A 350 mesh strainer offers an average pore size of 40 microns, and it’s nearly impossible to get much finer than this with surface media. We carry a full range of ErtelAlsop filter media, including MicroMedia and MicroClear depth filter sheets. MicroMedia DE sheets span the entire range of removal needs in the food and beverage industry, including microbial reduction and fine, clarifying, and coarse filtration of liquids. MicroClear sheets include activated carbon for color adsorption, odor adsorption, and flavor refinement in. Depth filtration utilizes the thickness (depth) of a cellulose based filter media. This “depth” matrix is used to trap suspended particles; separating them from their carrying fluid. Depth filtration is most commonly applied in polishing filtration applications including, but not limited to: Essential oil and extract clarification Filter media. There is a variety of filter media that can be employed in depth filter processes the most common being sand. Choice of filter media has effects on filter rate, turbidity and filter surface area.

Seitz Filter sheets have a long-lasting tradition of more than 130 years on the market of depth filtration and play a key role within the Pall Depth Filter portfolio. This invention can be considered as one of the most important pioneering achievements for the beverage industry. Supracap 50 capsules are designed for developing and optimizing a process during scale-up and scale-down studies. They can be used to quickly and accurately determine which series and grade of depth filter media will provide the best performance as well as the necessary filtration area required to meet process volume. Nevertheless, the primary reason synthetic filter media are preferred is their more consistent porosity and smaller fiber size, which contributes to higher dirt-holding capacity and longevity of the filter. This example of a depth-type filter has an element that requires oil to pass through 114 millimeters of filter media Micro-Clear™ Activated Carbon Depth Filter Media. Activated carbon is highly porous over a broad range of pore sizes, from cracks and crevices to molecular dimensions. It is this porosity that provides activated carbon’s unique adsorptive properties. Generally, activated carbon contains surface areas in the range of 500-2000 m²/gm.

They can be used to quickly and accurately determine which series and grade of depth filter media will provide the best performance as well as the necessary filtration area required to meet process volume. Supracap 50 capsules are readily scalable to Pall Supracap 100 capsules, Supradisc™ I, and Supradisc II depth filter modules. 1 INTRODUCTION. Depth filters are employed for various purposes, for the purification of liquids as well as the cleaning of gases. The general principle is also used in different industries, such as energy conversion, waste water treatment, beverage technology, and air conditioning. 1, 2 All forms of depth filters are characterized by their phenomenological separation behavior, namely that the. BECO CPS depth filter sheets are used for clarifying filtration in the chemical, cosmetic and food industries. The filter sheets remove particles of a coarse, crystalline, amorphous or gel-like structure perfectly. An extremely wide range of filtration tasks can be performed according to given specifications, even with highly viscous liquids. A depth filter usually has three to five layers of filtration media, each of different size and density in a pressurized vessel. Light, coarse material lies at the top of the filter bed. The media become progressively finer and denser in the lower layers. A depth filter also has an underbedding of

Depth filtration, as its name implies, involves the separation of a suspended particle or liquid droplet from its carrying fluid within the depth (thickness) of the filter medium. Elsevier's Handbook of Filter Media 1 describes four different mechanisms of filtration: • surface straining; • depth straining; The filtration is driven by pressure through the depth of the filter media to achieve clarification. It is important to note that the size and format of encapsulated filters differs between manufacturers. As a result, each filter type or configuration may likely require the accompanying filter holder. Seitz Filter sheets have a long-lasting tradition of more than 130 years on the market of depth filtration and play a key role within the Pall Depth Filter portfolio. Depth filter sheets are made of cellulose fibers, kieselguhr and perlite. They use surface filtration, depth filtration and adsorbtion as main filtration mechanisms. The invention relates to depth filter media. In this specification "depth filter" means a filter with pores capable of removing from a fluid particles that may be smaller than the size of pores in the filter, the particles being trapped by progressive interception during changes of direction of the pores. Such depth filters have a high dirt.

The use of granular media filter beds for water filtration is an engrained part of water treatment and under the term ‘granular filter media’ the exclusive use of sand and anthracite is generally assumed. The filter capacity and filtrate quality yielded by different media grain sizes and at different bed depths has been studied extensively.
