Contec Filtering elements, many solutions for many applications

Reliable filtration and reprocessing of liquids

Filter cartridges for liquid filtration and microfiltration

Filter cartridges for liquid filtration and microfiltration

Contec offers a wide range of cartridge filters and depth filters for a wide variety of applications. Regardless of whether cartridge filters or filter elements are required for the pharmaceutical industry, food industry or chemical industry, Contec filter cartridges meet the high quality requirements of the industry and filter safely and reliably.

Depending on the design, Contec filter cartridges can filter both coarse and very fine impurities from water or other solutions. Depth filter elements with nominal separation rates are often used as pre-filters, but also offer many other possible applications in liquid filtration.

Our wide range of cartridge filters enables perfect adaptation to your process.

FAQs

When selecting a filter cartridge, factors such as the design, length, connection, filter material and filter rating must be compatible with the filter housing and the intended application. In addition, the medium, temperature, pressure, flow rate and the desired service life are crucial.

'Filter element' is the general term for a component that retains particles or other contaminants from a medium. A filter cartridge is a specific type of filter element that is fitted into a suitable filter housing.

Common filter types include melt-blown, wound, pleated depth and surface filters, membrane filters, and metallic sieve and sintered elements. Depending on their design, they can be used for pre-filtration, fine filtration, microfiltration or sterile filtration.

Filter cartridges offer a large filtration area whilst maintaining a compact design, and enable controlled filtration using a variety of filter media. Depending on the design, a wide range of filter finenesses can be achieved, right up to depth filtration.

Filter cartridges are primarily used for the filtration of liquids, but with the appropriate design they can also be used for gases, air and steam. The appropriate filter material depends on the fluid, temperature, pressure and required filter fineness.

For example, as:

  • pre-filtering in water treatment chemicals
  • process filters for solvents
  • electroplating
  • surface engineering
  • oils, greases
  • painting and lacquering industry

The pleating provides a large effective filter area within a compact footprint. This can result in low initial pressure drop, high flow rates and a long service life. This is subject to the pleat geometry, filter medium and process conditions being properly matched.

Melt-blown filters consist of melt-blown, interwoven polymer fibres (melt-blown process), often made of polypropylene. Many versions have a pore structure that becomes finer from the outside in (multi-layer structure) and act as depth filters. The retention rate, support core, adaptor and material resistance vary depending on the product.

In the case of wound filter cartridges, yarn is wound around a support core in a defined pattern (yarn-winding process). They are regarded as robust depth filters and are available for a range of particle loads and media. Performance and fibre release depend largely on the yarn, the winding, the support core and the quality of manufacture.

Thanks to their wound structure, wound filter cartridges provide deep filtration and are therefore able to trap particles throughout the entire filter structure. They are available in a range of materials and filter grades and are considered to be very robust.
