Working principle

CMA uses graded-density PP for depth particle capture. The absolute-rating designation must be linked to a specific rating and test basis.

Construction & flow path

The cylindrical PP element is configured by length, ends and seals. Confirm mounting fit separately from rating evidence; a similar shape does not establish equivalence.

Applications & filtration duty

For process liquids with greater emphasis on particle control, including prefiltration candidates for downstream fine-filter elements.

Technical parameters

Use these specifications for selection. Materials, dimensions and operating conditions follow the selected model and agreed specification.

Information to prepare for an inquiry

Use this family’s selection priorities to share available operating conditions, equipment information or drawings.

  • Define target size, acceptable particle levels and the rating test method.
  • Distinguish nominal and absolute ratings rather than comparing micron numbers alone.
  • Provide count, length, flow and acceptable operating differential pressure.

Operation & maintenance

Keep records of pressure drop and downstream particle control. For demanding quality duties, include actual test results in replacement decisions.

Common operating inputs
  • Fluid and major composition
  • Target flow and operating pattern
  • Operating temperature and pressure
  • Contaminant form and target rating
  • Material, connection and space constraints
  • Maintenance frequency and existing equipment
