Press Release Summary:
Offered in bag or cartridge configurations, Mikro-Pleat(TM) filters are made of spunbond nonwoven filter media that is resistant to temperature, moisture, and abrasion. Their density promotes surface filtration of dust and release of collected particulate. Surface treatments include metalized, oil- and water-repellent, and Mikrotex© PTFE laminate finishes. Where static discharge is an issue, versions with stainless steel or copper ground wires are available.
Original Press Release:
Space- And Cost-Efficient Mikro-Pleat(TM) Pleated Filters For Efficient Product Recovery
TRENTON, SC, December 22, 2003 - Menardi offers application-specific configurations of its Mikro-Pleat(TM) pleated filter media for use in product recovery applications. In either bag or cartridge configurations, the product can be customized for efficient recovery of fine powder products from process or pneumatic conveying flows, such as paint and pigments, chemicals, resins, pharmaceuticals, cement, toners, food and fine metal oxides.
Mikro-Pleat pleated filters can improve the capacity and operating efficiency of existing baghouses by increasing the effective filtration media area by two or more times compared to
conventional pulse jet bag felt or paper cartridge media. Benefits include significantly lower pressure drops, extended filter life and reduced compressed air usage.
Special filter material and pleat construction give Mikro-Pleat the durability necessary for enhanced performance. Mikro-Pleat pleated filters are constructed of a special spunbond nonwoven filter media more resistant to temperature, moisture and abrasion than other filter material. Its density promotes surface filtration of dust and easy release of the collected particulate. The material's high strength and durability make possible wide pleats and operation at higher air-to-cloth ratios without plugging.
Available surface treatments include metalized, oil- and water-repellent and Mikrotex© PTFE laminate finishes. Where static discharge is a problem, versions with stainless steel or copper
ground wires are available.
The one-piece Mikro-Pleat pleated filter with either metal or polypropylene inner core does not require separate support cages, which reduces change-out costs. A wide variety of tubesheet attachment styles is available, permitting both clean side and product side installations. One option, the Mikro-Pleat Pop-Top® patented collar and venturi design, does not require any special tools or clamps for installation in 5.0-in., 5.0625-in., 5.25-in., 6.0-in. and 6.25-in. diameter tubesheet holes.
Menardi offers a full range of cartridge-type Mikro-Pleat filters for virtually all sizes and makes of cartridge collectors in top removal, horizontal, cam-lock and traditional bottom load filter configurations.
Cartridge-type options include high temperature capability with moisture-resistant or fire retardant finishes, Mikrotex® PTFE membranes and conductive or high-efficiency filter media, as well as standard cellulose, cellulose/synthetic blends and filter felts. Food grade and drug pharmaceutical style cartridges are available with stainless steel construction and washable filter media.
