Tel. 800 628 8139 www.brookfieldengineering.com Synthetic filter handles heavy dust loads HemiPleat filter is made of lightweight, spun-bond polyester media that resists mois- ture, accepts heavy dust loads, and handles hygroscopic and sticky dusts. Its widely spaced pleats—not found in competitors' cartridges—maximize filter surface area, minimize pressure drop, and release dust easily during pulse-cleaning. Washable media withstands operating temperatures to 160°F. Standard media is rated MERV 11. Addition of company's eXtreme nano-fiber layer increases rating to MERV 15 and creates pre-filter that enhances surface loading and extends service life. Filters fit Farr Gold and most other cartridge dust collectors. Camfil APC, Jonesboro, AR. Tel. 870 933 8048 www.camfilapc.com/pharma
