A constructed cartridge somewhat different from those just described is the lenticular disc filter – the prime difference being that the components of a complete element are capable of undertaking…

The final group of surface filtering cartridges is made up of individual compon ents that, by themselves, could not act as a filter medium, but when assembled into a generally…

A foam is created when a mass of gas bubbles is evenly distributed throughout a quantity of liquid, in such a way that the gas occupies almost all of the…

Somewhat akin to the capsule filter in operating principle, although very different in construction and operating conditions, are many of the filters used to remove contaminants from the flow of…

Similar in principle to the cartridge filter, by virtue of being used until full of collected solids and then cleaned or discarded, are the small in-line capsule filters, much used…

The sintered (thermally bonded) materials will normally be made into tubular shapes, by moulding or isostatic pressing, before sintering, and these shapes will be self-supporting, so there is no need…

The cartridges with thick media are intended to work by depth filtration, and their contaminant loading capacity is an important feature of their usability. Thick media will often be graded…

The thin media can be any material that may be produced in sheet form, but a flat sheet wrapped around the central core would not be a very efficient filter…

The cartridges consisting of a single piece of filter medium are made from a perforated cylindrical core, of metal or stiff plastic, onto which the material of the filter medium…

Several attempts have already been made in this Handbook to classify a type of filter, only for examples to be shown of filter types that cross the filter type classification…
