Custom Filtration Solutions (CFS) — POEX Extended Life Filter Bag
Overview
CFS POEX extended-life liquid filter bags use an advanced polypropylene fiber blend to create a thicker, lightweight felt with deeper loading capacity than traditional felts. The media design increases dirt holding capacity and collection efficiency without raising the initial differential pressure.
Key Features and Benefits
- All-welded construction: prevents particle bypass that can occur through needle holes.
- Composite media design: effective across a wide range of particle types and shapes.
- Glazed surface finish: eliminates downstream fiber migration.
- Embossed media and micron rating: permanent, visible identification on the bag.
- Extended service life: two to four times the dirt-holding capacity of standard felt bags.
