Materials and filtration principles
Filter bags for industrial liquid filtration
Filter bags are used within industrial liquid filtration for removing unwanted particles from a wide range of liquids.
Profiltra supplies filter bags in different sizes, materials and connections for a wide range of process conditions and filtration applications.
Different materials for different process conditions
Depending on the medium, temperature and chemical load, filter bags are available in different materials, including:
- Nomex®
- PTFE
- Polypropylene
- Polyester
- Nylon
This allows filter bags to be tailored to a wide range of industrial filtration processes.
Depth filtration and surface filtration
Within the range, filter bags are available for different filtration principles.
Needle felt filter bags operate according to the depth filtration principle, where particles are retained within the filter medium.
Nylon filter bags operate according to the surface filtration principle, where particles are separated on the surface of the filter material.
