Typical Applications
For accurate, high efficiency, high flow rate, low pressure drop applications;
including hospitals, food and beverage processes and pharmaceutical sites,
pleated filtration is the ideal choice. The SPECTRUM range of cartridges offers a
solution for visible contaminant reduction through to critical bacterial protection.
Consistent classification with exact micron sizes ensure effective targeting of specific
contaminants and optimised cartridge service life.
The diverse portfolio of pleated cartridges, with different media, lengths and end-caps, results in a range of
configurations to suit the majority of application requirements.

Pleated Technology
Pleated filters are widely used as effective surface filtration due to their excellent
flow rates and high efficiency.
Pleating dramatically increases available surface area whilst maintaining high dirt loading and low pressure
drops. Much of the media used in pleated cartridges also has some depth characteristics, thanks to its
multi-layer construction, thereby aiding particle retention and classification.
Surface Filtration Technology
Pleated filters are the ideal technology of choice over
depth filtration for retention of known or uniformly
sized particles.
The Standard (SPE) range of cartridges features a
single layer media, which filters on the principles of
direct interception and 'caking' where multiple particles
accumulate across the media pore. Over time this leads
to partial closure, which can increase efficiency and the
chance to target finer particles.
The entire Premier range includes support and
pre-filtration layers providing an element of depth
characteristics. These layers retain larger particles,
ensuring the specified micron rating of the cartridge can
be utilised for exacting classification.
Depth Filtration Technology
The fibres become more tightly packed throughout
a depth cartridge, progressively reducing the size of
particles that can pass through the filter.
Advantage: Economic to produce.
Disadvantage: Higher pressure drop means a
shorter service life compared to pleated cartridges.

• Individual product boxes
• Heavy duty outer carton
Premier Pleat Construction
The Premier Pleat, Crypto and Bubble Point ranges are all constructed with a rigid inner core and outer
polypropylene cage. Offering protection for the pleat pack, the cage also allows a variety of end-caps to be thermally
bonded to the cartridge. This secure construction technique prevents bypass, creating a seal strong enough for
repeated steam or chemical sterilisation as well as cartridge integrity testing.
Developments in 2018 see a new outer cage design that increases its void volume by over 10%. Whilst maintaining
cartridge strength, increasing the open area allows a more uniform distribution of flow across the entire pleat pack
ensuring low pressure drop and maximised dirt holding capacity.
Outer support cage• Provides product strength and rigidity. • Protects the pleat pack, ensuring media integrity.• New outer cage design with increased void volume.
Inner support cage• End-caps are bonded to the support core for product security
and strength, ensuring no bypass and enabling integrity testing.
Media• Pleated construction increases surface area, delivering high
flow rates, low initial clean pressure drop and optimised dirt holding.
• Designed with an optimum balance of filtration media and void volume, the pleat pack is engineered to ensure that the entire surface area of the cartridge is used.
Thermally bonded end-cap• No adhesive ensures no leaching of additives.
• Numerous end-caps and seals available to suit various housings (refer to pages 32 and 33).

Offering a significant financial saving over targeted PES media, such as beverage and electronics grades, the PPPES range uses an asymmetric construction. This provides a balanced absolute rated cartridge, with high initial flow rates and lower clean pressure drop due to its naturally hydrophilic properties.
The structure of the PPPES range, with its narrower initial pore structure, provides a perfect blend between a membrane cartridge with highly selective classification characteristics and one that ensures enhanced retention over time.

Bubble Point0.2-1.2 micronThe validated, integrity tested range of industry
specialised beverage grade filters uses the latest
technology to create a highly asymmetric, permanently
hydrophilic membrane. Capable of higher throughput
and with greater membrane depth capability, the new
Bubble Point range extends membrane life in high
loading applications. Suitable for use in many critical
applications from biological filtration, through to the
validated removal of spoilage microorganisms for beer,
cider, wine and fruit juice classification.

Hygiene and Traceability
• 100% integrity tested, with specific Quality Assurance Certificate supplied with every cartridge.
• Manufactured in a clean room environment, lot coded on the polypropylene cage for tracking and tracing.
• Each cartridge has double layered packaging. The inner plastic wrap is vacuum sealed and a tough outer layer provides further protection and cleanliness.
• Individually labelled and boxed for security and ease of product identification.
Yeast Removal and ClarityUsed for the removal of yeast, as well as ensuring desired clarity in wine applications are the 0.45-1.2 µm Bubble Point (SE, SA & CA) cartridges.
Bacterial ControlThe 0.2 micron Bubble Point (BD) is specifically targeted towards bottle wash and final filtration for bacterial reduction, to prevent spoilage and maximise shelf life.
Spoilage Microorganism ReductionTypically used as the final stage of the bottling / kegging process in beer filtration applications is the 0.45 µm Bubble Point (SE).
Highly Asymmetric Pore Structure
• Inert and highly asymmetric polyethersulfone media with intrinsic hydrophilic properties
• Validated contamination removal at the desired micron size for precise classification
• Wider initial cone structure for enhanced dirt holding and optimised service life
The Bubble Point range uses a highly asymmetric polyesthersulfone media. This modified media, with an initial increased pore diameter, significantly improves performance and durability, critical for high load contaminant removal found in beverage applications.
The increased dirt holding properties of the enhanced PES pore structure, with a greater void volume, protects the validated retention layer from premature fouling as typically occurs in standard PES media. This ensures high flow rates are maintained over an extended service life.
Low protein binding characteristics coupled with the modified PES pore structure result in a cartridge that provides consistent classification without altering the final product quality, retaining desired proteins, colourants and flavours.
Integrity Testable
All SPECTRUM Bubble Point cartridges are 100% integrity testable giving known, precise and documented filter performance for ongoing quality control.
For ease of use, the fully automated SPECTRUM integrity tester offers an array of test protocols for complete peace of mind.
