Sizes

Standard PSS filters are available in three styles. Industrial (1000 style) cartridges are 2 3& ⁄8-inch diameter double openended modules in incremental lengths of 10 inches; sanitary design (AB style) are closed on one end with an O-ring piston seal on the other end; and cylindrical elements, which are 1 1& ⁄2-inches or 2 3& ⁄8-inches in diameter, closed on one end with a threaded fitting connection on the other.

Operating Characteristics

Standard 316 stainless steel cartridges are capable of withstanding a minimum collapse differential pressure of 50 psid in the forward flow (outside-in) direction to 600°F* and 50 psid in the reverse flow direction. Threaded connector series only. Due to seal limitations,

*Threaded connector series only. Due to seal limitations, 1000 Series suitable for applications up to 450°F.

* These removal ratings should be used when comparing PSS to competitive grades.
¹Liquid removal efficiency ratings are based on a modified F2 test method and actual particle count data.
²Weight percent removal data based on AC Fine Test Dust in air. Absolute retention ratings based on actual particle count. ³Pressure drop in psi obtained by multiplying value shown by actual flow desired in gpm, viscosity of liquid in centipoise (if other than 1 cp), all divided by total filtration area (ft 2) selected. See Table 2 for area.
⁴Pressure drop in psi obtained by multiplying value shown by actual gaseous flow rate desired (acfm), ratio of viscosities

Actual viscosity of gas (in cp)

0.018 (viscosity of air)

all divided by total filtration area (ft 2) selected. See Table 2 for area.
