Profile® Star Filter Cartridges


for gel and particle removal

Profile Star filter cartridges are pleated depth filters


designed for high particle removal efficiency in food and
beverage applications.

Description
The Profile Star filter cartridge combines the advantages
of a continuously graded pore structure and a unique
pleated geometry to provide an increase in effective
filtration area and service life.

The pressure drop and flow capability is comparable


to competitive pleated polypropylene filters whilst also
providing excellent removal of soft contaminants
(e.g. gels) because of the depth of the medium.
