Flotrex HR

Summary

Product Identification

The Flotrex HR (FHR) filters are pleated filters constructed entirely from Halar (ECTFE), an industrial-grade fluoropolymer. They are designed for robust performance in harsh chemical environments, offering broad chemical compatibility and consistent, uniform process streams.

• Materials of Construction:
  • Media: Halar Microfiber
  • Support Layers: Halar
  • Core and Cage: Halar
  • Endcaps and Adapters: Halar
• Absolute Micron Ratings: 3, 10, and 25 µm
• Filtration Efficiency: 99.9% at rated pore size (based on ASTM F795 and F661 test methods)
• Manufacturing: Produced and packaged in a cleanroom environment for assured cleanliness.
• Applications: Designed for both pre- and final filtration in demanding applications, including:
  • Filtration of aggressive chemicals (e.g., Toluene and Xylene)
  • Filtration of Ozonated Water
  • Beverage

Operating Limits

• Maximum Forward Differential Pressure: 60 psi (4.1 bar) at 70ºF (21ºC)
• Maximum Reverse Differential Pressure: 30 psi (2.1 bar) at 70ºF (21ºC)
• Maximum Operating Temperature: 180ºF (82ºC) at 10 psid (0.69 bar) in water

Mechanical / Hydraulic

• Nominal Outer Diameter: 2.75” (70 mm)
• Nominal Inner Diameter: 1.25” (31 mm)
• Effective Filtration Area: 8.0 ft² (0.74 m²)
• Nominal Cartridge Lengths: 10 in (25 cm), 20 in (51 cm), 30 in (76 cm), 40 in (102 cm)
• End #1 Adapter Options: Open End Gasket, 222 O-Ring, 226 O-Ring
• End #2 Adapter Options: Open End Gasket, Closed End Cap, Fin Adapter
• Elastomer Materials: Viton, Teflon, Encapsulated Viton
• Flow Performance in Clean Water: See the official PDF for exact tabulated values.

Additional Features

• Sanitization: Filters may be sanitized with compatible chemical agents, such as ozonated water. They must not be autoclaved or steam sterilized.
• Biocompatibility: Meets the test criteria for USP24 Class VI-121°C Plastics and passes the MEM Elution Cytotoxicity Test.
• Extractables: Aqueous extracts contain less than 0.25 EU/ml. Filters typically exhibit low levels of non-volatile residues.
• Ozone Tolerance: FHR filters are ozone tolerant for 9,000 ppm/hr with no extractables.
