Filters
CHEM Flow Filter Assemblies with the unique CHEM Flow filter element are designed primarily for the filtration of corrosive liquids and gases. These filters also are ideally suited for gas diffusion and purification. Their excellent filtering characteristics, resistance to heat, heat shock, chemical attack and mechanical strength make them uniquely them for difficult applications.
Features
- 3 Microns—Very Fine polishing and clarifying
- 5-10 Microns—Fine polishing and clarifying
- 25-50-100 Microns—General polishing
and clarifying
- PERMANENT FILTER ELEMENT
The extremely hard element wears very little and by use of the various cleaning methods the constant replacement cost on non-permanent elements is completely eliminated - CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
CHEM Flow filters are completely resistant to chemical attack by all acids, except HF, and hot concentrated alkalies. - NON-SLOUGHING
Sloughing, the shedding and passing of filter body particles greater than rated size, is a defect which occurs with many filter materials. When CHEM Flow filter elements are handled properly this condition will not occur.
For Polishing Clarifying Cold Sterilization, Only CHEM Flow has all these advantages:
- Complete Corrosion Resistance
- Constructed of Borosilicate Tubing and TFE
- Low Pressure Drop
- Non Sloughing
-
Compactness
- High Heat Resistance
- Transparent Body
- Uniform Structure Voids and Particle Retention
- Complete Porosity Range 5 to 100 Micron
- Gas Filtration
- Adaptable to all Piping Systems
- Reuseable Elements

UNIFORM STRUCTURE
Maximum particle retention. The uniform structure of the CHEM Flow filter element is reflected in its particle-retention rating. (Rating based on the minimum size of a spherical particle which will be retained by the filter). For example, a CHEM Flow filter element rated at 50 microns will retain 98% of all particles larger than 50 microns.
UNIFORM VOIDS
Uniform voids allow a high percentage of particles below the rated particle size to pass, and thereby greatly reduce clogging rates.
FLOW RATE
CHEM Flow filters offer minimum pressure loss for any given particle retention range. Constant checking during the manufacturing process assures acceptable limits. Chart shows the rate at which these filters will pass clear water and liquids with a water viscocity at various pressures. Viscosity, contaiminant, pressure and micron rating will all affect the flow rate. The uniform structure and voids of the element provide the very maximum free area which produces the following flow rates
