Replacement Cartridges, Bags & Pleated Filters
Membrane Cartridge Filters
All membrane cartridges are constructed from material meeting USFDA Title 21 and USP Class VI. The filter also meets the current USP requirements for extractables. All are steam sterilizable and integrity testable.
Depth Cartridge Filters
For example, a 1 micron DCF, prevents damage, blockage, or wear and tear of process pipework and equipment - valves, heat exchangers - that process liquids pass through. And a 5 micron DCF ensures the visual clarity of liquids in beverage applications. PoreFiltration offers a full product range for new and retrofit applications.
Pleated Depth Cartridge Filters
When the range of particulate contamination is better understood and narrower in range then pleated depth cartridge filters are used because of their pleated filter media. This offers far better flow characteristics than similar sized depth cartridge filters, reducing initial capital cost or reducing running costs by signficantly extending the cartridge service life.
Acting as a prefilter, pleated depth cartridge filters perform an important role by protecting follow-on membrane technologies - microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis - so their efficacy and service life can be maximised.
PTFE Gas Cartridge Filters
The SurePore PTFE Gas range offers validated absolute sterilization capabilities, making it ideal for critical applications. Engineered to withstand multiple steam sterilization cycles at high temperatures, these products undergo thorough integrity testing using standard methods. Compliant with USFDA Title 21 and USP Class VI standards, the filter also meets current USP requirements for extractables.
Glass Fibre Gas Cartridge Filters
Flow rates of PurePore GF Gas are typically 2-3 times that of PTFE membrane filters, such as SurePore PTFE Gas and this that dramatically reduces cartridge usage and/or installation size impacting running and capex costs.
Coalescing Cartridge Filters
This enhanced air quality is particularly crucial for industries like pharmaceuticals, food processing, and electronics manufacturing. Moreover, by eliminating these contaminants, coalescing filters safeguard sensitive equipment such as pneumatic tools, machinery, valves, and more from wear, corrosion, and clogging, consequently extending their lifespan and reducing maintenance costs.
Ultimately, the use of coalescing filters leads to improved process efficiency, making them an essential component in various industrial applications
Industrial & Food Grade Bag Filters
PoreFiltration offers a comprehensive range of replacement bag filters suitable for industrial, water, food, and beverage applications. Our filter bags deliver exceptional process efficiency, ensuring high flow rates and compatibility with a wide range of chemicals used in liquid filtration processes.
Whether you're setting up a new filtration system or enhancing an existing one, we offer polypropylene felt, polyester felt, and nylon mesh options, each featuring a choice of polypropylene collar, polyester collar, or stainless steel ring allowing retrofitting into any existing bag housing. Our bag filters are available in both industrial and food-grades in a comprehensive range of removal ratings from 0.5 to 1000 microns, standard lengths (Sizes 1, 2, 3, & 4) and bag diameters (7" & 4"). All our bag filters are supplied silicone-free. Additionally, we accommodate custom requests for tailored filter bags.
All replacement bag filters come in identical dimensions to your current filter bags, ensuring effortless replacement without sacrificing performance.
Carbon Filters
Carbon filters are renowned for their exceptional ability to effectively remove impurities, odours, and contaminants from air, water, and other fluids. Utilising their highly porous structure carbon filters adsorb molecules, resulting in cleaner and purer output.
Common contaminants removed by carbon filters include Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) such as benzene, formaldehyde, and toluene, which are commonly found in household products, paints, and industrial emissions. Chlorine and Chloramines; Efficiently eliminate chlorine and chloramines from water, improving taste and odour. Odours and Foul Smells; Highly effective at neutralising and removing unpleasant odours and foul smells from air and water sources; Organic Contaminant remove organic contaminants, including pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals.
Inline Filters
Inline filters are initial filtration steps to control and prevent particulates and contaminates entering the manufacturing process protecting valves, pumps, seals, and heat exchangers from clogging, damage and failure. By doing this at the earliest possible point in the manufacturing process, equipment downtime is minimised, ensuring longer operational service periods, which reduces running costs.
Stainless Steel Filter Cartridges
Stainless Steel (St. St.) cartridge filters retain their strength as liquid temperatures increase which makes them suitable for elevated temperature liquid filtration, where polymetric (polypropylene, nylon, polyester or glass fibre) cartridges are not viable. Staineless Steel filter cartridges have:
A broad range of chemical compatibility
Mechanically strong which makes them ideal for high viscosity applications
Are cleanable either by ultrasonics or chemical cleaning
Reusable through many elevated temperature cycles
Stainless Steel filters also play a key role in the filtration of steam due to their thermal strength protecting process equipment and pipework from damage by contaminants entrained in the steam.

This ensures easy integration into your production process, making our filtration systems an ideal choice for various applications.
Tank Vent Filter Housings
PVV Vent Filter Housings are designed to allow storage and product tanks to breathe while in operation. The gas is sterile filtered as it passes through the cartridge that the vent filter housing holds. Vent housings accept wide bore Code 7 cartridges to minimise pressure loss and maximise gas flow.
Our PVV Vent Filter Housings are paired with SurePore Gas PTFE membrane or PurePore Gas GF cartridges to offer a one-stop shop solution.
Sterile Gas Filter Housings
The PVG range is designed for sterile gas filter applications to remove contaminants from gases before they come into contact with liquids, solutions, or solids prior to their packaging preventing contamination and spoilage.
PVG housings minimise housing pressure loss by using sanitary wide-bore inlet/outlet connections and internal swept bends and prevent condensate blinding the filter cartridge by using a large phelum chamber. By minimising the pressure drop of the filter we reduce system running costs and ensure effective opration of the filtration system.

Highflow Cartridge Filter Housings
When liquid flowrates exceed 200 m3/hr for particulate removal applications standard pleated cartridge filters (2½” dia) means that high numbers of cartridges have to be used. To solve this challenge the Highflow (6" dia) cartridge was introduced along with the PVH High Flow Housings. A single Highflow cartridge replaces 8 to 10 standard diameter cartridges with a reduction in filter housing footprint, reducing cartridge change out times and reducing the number for filters to be disposed of once used.
The PVH range includes single and multi-cartridge filter housings suitable for industrial liquid applications and caters for flows from 200 m3/hr up to 1,400 m3/hr. The housings are available in vertical or horizontal orientation to make installation of high flow cartridges as easy as possible.
