Product Information

5 or 4,7/8" Polypropylene / Polycarbonate Filter

A superb quality Particulate filter, well suited to the filtration of substances such as vegetable oil / ethanol / methanol / water / foodstuffs / bio diesel etc. This filter has a clear Polycarbonate bowl so that the condition of the filter can be easily monitored. This filter comes with ONE element, available in 1, 5, 10, or 20 micron

SEAL MATERIAL - This filter is supplied as standard with a NITRILE (Also known as BUNA-N or NBR) Top seal, this is the same material supplied with all other manufacturers filters of this type as they are designed for Water. If you are using the filter with Vegetable Oil or Bio Diesel, the Nitrile seal will eventually swell and/or dissolve, it is therefore recommended that a spare seal in VITON is purchased to replace the original seal once it has become squishy. Viton seals are available in the product options below

PRESSURE FILTER - This is a pressure filter, it is designed to be fitted downstream of a pump of in a pressurised line, if it is fitted in a vacuum situation the red pressure-release button on the top will be drawn downward by the suction and will draw air into the system. It is possible for users to remove the button and replace with a bolt & nut if the filter is to be fitted in a vacuum situation
