Product description
High efficiency microfiber filter bag for demanding liquid filtration
The POMF Filter Bag is designed for liquid filtration applications that require higher filtration efficiency, stable performance and extended service life. This filter bag uses a multi layer microfiber construction to achieve reliable particle retention while maintaining low pressure drop.
POMF filter bags are commonly used in processes where conventional felt filter bags do not provide sufficient filtration efficiency or where product cleanliness is critical.
Filtration principle
The POMF Filter Bag uses a triple layer microfiber filtration structure.
-
The inner pre filtration layer captures coarse particles and distributes flow evenly
-
The primary microfiber layer provides efficient particle retention through fine micro pores
-
The outer cover layer prevents fiber migration and protects downstream processes
This depth filtration design provides:
-
high filtration efficiency
-
stable pressure behaviour
-
high contaminant loading capacity
-
long service life
The microfiber structure also adsorbs hydrocarbons from liquids, supporting improved clarity of the filtered fluid.
Design and construction
The POMF Filter Bag is manufactured from proprietary polypropylene microfiber materials. The fibers are finish free and non foaming, making the filter bag suitable for sensitive applications.
Key design features include:
-
triple layer microfiber construction
-
high void volume for extended service life
-
outer cover to prevent fiber release
-
integrated sealing ring to prevent bypass
-
easy installation and removal
The construction supports consistent filtration performance and reduced downtime during maintenance.
Performance characteristics
The POMF Filter Bag offers:
-
higher filtration efficiency compared to standard felt filter bags
-
long service life due to high contaminant loading capacity
-
low and stable pressure drop
-
reliable particle retention across a wide size range
This makes the POMF filter bag suitable for both continuous and batch filtration processes.
Material compatibility and hygiene
The polypropylene microfiber construction provides good chemical compatibility with a wide range of liquids. The non foaming fiber structure supports applications where product cleanliness is essential.
Selected POMF variants are manufactured from materials suitable for use in food and water related applications.
