Depth elements are used in low flow filtration systems such as applications
containing soft contaminants, sludge, slime, or waxes. Fluitek depth elements
are most commonly used to clean or recycle hydraulic oil, compressor oil,
gear oil, quench oil, or various other fluids with off-line or side-stream
kidney loop systems.
This series of elements is available in several different sizes and forms.
There are a lot of different options of medias including cellulose and synthetic
fiber blended medias. Fluitek depth filters are available in an efficiency range
from 1 - 150 micron and up to a 350°F max temperature rating. The prime
advantages of depth filtration elements are high dirt holding capacity, long
filtration cycles, and high retention of small particulate in polishing applications.
