BOS Gradient Filter BOS Gradient Filter element is the first of its kind, with seamless design and true gradient density. This absolute rated element provides users with the depth of a cartridge and the convenience of a bag. This polypropylene microfiber product adsorbs up to 16 times its own weight in hydrocarbons (oils) and will last up to 18 times the life of other products (depending on particle distribution and application). Features and Benefits Gradient Density Up to 18 times extended life compared to other products, dependent upon particle distribution and application Longer life means fewer bag changes which results in lower labor costs and less loss of product Not compressible in operation providing greater dirt holding capacity Designed for typical broad particle distribution applications. (*For applications with narrow particle distribution, contact your FSI representative.) Will allow more efficient filtration (lower micron) without sacrificing product lifeMicrofiber Adsorbs up to 16 times its own weight in hydrocarbons (Oils) Inventory reduction. Eliminates need for stocking ¨Oil¨ bags Thermally bonded, with no lubricants or surface active agentsPolyloc Ring Elimination of by-pass around filter elementFits existing FSI basket No retrofit costs Specifications Seamless Construction Thermally Bonded Ring Material: Polypropylene Microfiber Maximum Operating Temperature: 160 F - 71 C Size: 7¨ dia X 32¨ long (17.8 cm X 81.32 cm)
