MicroSentry™ MS String Wound Filters
MicroSentry™ string wound filters are widely recognized in the industry for high quality and last 2-3 times longer than the standard melt-blown or spun-bond alternatives. Due to the state-of-the-art production process of the MicroSentry™ MS Series, these string wound filters have higher filtration efficiency, superior dirt-holding capacity and repeatable performance. This is possible because of the precise geometric string patterns utilized in the creation of these filters. This results in a superior product that is ideal for filtering solids from both liquids and gasses. Independent testing has shown that this brand of string wound filters has the highest filtration efficiency in the industry.
The MicroSentry™ MS Series string wound filters come in a variety of materials and micron ratings and can be fully customized to suit your filtration needs. Customization of the fibers, core and size allows for maximum compatibility for various chemicals and high temperature applications.
