CIF Series Microfilters - Crushable Incinerable Cartridges

    Product Description

    The Facet CIF Series Crushable Incinerable Cartridges are engineered to deliver high-efficiency filtration while minimizing environmental and operational costs. Designed with sustainability in mind, these microfilters feature a fully coreless, metal-free construction—making them both crushable and incinerable. With no metal components, disposal volume can be reduced by as much as 80%, vastly lowering waste-handling costs and supporting sustainability initiatives.

    With high-performance pleated paper media, the CIF Series maintains efficiency throughout its service life. Available in micron ratings from 0.5 to 5 microns, these filters excel at removing solid contaminants from fuels, solvents, and process liquids such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Their standard 6-inch (152 mm) OD design ensures compatibility with a wide range of housings, including Facet M Series—requiring only a one-time center tube kit for installation.

    CIF cartridges are lightweight and easy to handle, enabling quicker filter changeouts and less system downtime. The innovative pleat spacer design ensures maximum utilization of the filter medium, delivering consistent flow rates and long life.
