Working principle
GFT retains particles through pleated glass-fiber media, combining pleated area with fibrous contaminant loading.
Construction & flow path
Glass-fiber media, support, ends and seals form the element. Confirm any binder and its compatibility from the actual specification.
Applications & filtration duty
A direction for duties emphasizing contaminant loading and downstream protection, assessed together with treated-liquid quality requirements.
Technical parameters
Use these specifications for selection. Materials, dimensions and operating conditions follow the selected model and agreed specification.
Materials & construction
- Filter media
Ultrafine borosilicate glass fiber; PP inner and outer supports.
- Construction & fabrication
Pleated glass-fiber filtration and flow-distribution layers.
- Seal-material codes
S=silicone; V=fluoroelastomer; VT=PTFE-encapsulated; R=EPDM; Z=NBR

Information to prepare for an inquiry
Use this family’s selection priorities to share available operating conditions, equipment information or drawings.
- Provide target particles, loading and downstream requirements.
- Check glass fiber, support and any binder compatibility.
- Specify fiber-release, color or extractables requirements.
Operation & maintenance
Replace around pressure drop and downstream condition while protecting pleats and ends. Confirm testing for fiber- or extractable-sensitive duties.
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
