1 Micron Filter Bag CARGEN PP 4.5 x 20 inches with Plastic Ring

Description

Product Overview

The CARGEN 1 Micron Filter Bag is engineered for demanding industrial and scientific environments where filtration performance cannot be compromised. Crafted from food‑grade polypropylene, the bag provides a chemically inert, odor‑free barrier that meets stringent safety standards for food, beverage, water, cosmetic, and specialty chemical processing. Its dimensions of 4.5 inches in diameter and 20 inches in length create a generous internal volume, allowing high flow rates while maintaining the ability to capture particles as small as one micron. The inclusion of a durable plastic ring at the top of the bag guarantees a tight, leak‑free seal during installation, simplifying both setup and routine maintenance. This design eliminates the need for additional fastening hardware, reducing overall system complexity and cost.

Usage

In food processing facilities, the bag excels at removing microscopic contaminants from liquid ingredients such as dairy, juices, and sauces, ensuring that final products meet consumer expectations for clarity and safety. Beverage manufacturers rely on its high‑precision filtration to protect sensitive flavors and aromas, while water treatment plants use the bag to eliminate suspended solids and microorganisms from municipal and industrial water streams. Cosmetic formulators benefit from the bag’s ability to retain fine pigments and particulate matter, delivering smooth, uniform textures in creams and lotions. Additionally, specialty chemical producers employ the bag to separate catalyst particles and by‑products, improving reaction efficiency and product purity.

Installation is straightforward: the plastic ring slides onto the designated filter housing, and the bag is secured with a simple twist, creating a gasket‑like seal that prevents bypass. The polypropylene material tolerates a wide temperature range, from chilled processing lines to elevated heat‑exchange systems, making it suitable for both cold‑chain and high‑temperature applications. Cleaning procedures are uncomplicated; the bag can be flushed with water or a mild detergent solution, then rinsed and reused, extending its service life and reducing waste.

FAQ

What types of liquids can I filter with this bag?

The bag is suitable for a wide range of liquids, including food and beverage products, water treatment streams, cosmetic formulations, and specialty chemicals. Its food‑grade polypropylene construction makes it safe for consumable applications, while its chemical resistance allows it to handle aggressive solvents and additives.

How often should the filter bag be replaced?

Replacement frequency depends on the volume of liquid processed and the level of particulate load. In typical food or beverage operations, the bag can handle several hundred gallons before performance declines. Monitoring pressure drop across the filter and visual inspection of the bag will help determine the optimal changeout schedule.

Can the bag be cleaned and reused?

Yes, the polypropylene material tolerates cleaning with water or mild detergents. After flushing and thorough rinsing, the bag can be reinstalled, extending its service life and reducing waste. For applications involving harsh chemicals, a compatible cleaning solution should be used to avoid material degradation.

Is the plastic ring compatible with all filter housings?

The plastic ring is designed to fit standard 4‑inch filter housings commonly used in industrial and laboratory settings. For non‑standard housings, verify the inner diameter and consult the product specifications to ensure a proper fit. If needed, adapters are available to accommodate alternative housing sizes.

What warranty does CARGEN provide?

CARGEN offers a one‑year limited warranty covering material defects and manufacturing errors. Should the bag fail under normal operating conditions within this period, we will replace it at no additional cost, reinforcing our commitment to product reliability and customer satisfaction.
