Filtration Systems, Inc. products

Filtration Systems makes a wide range of fiberglass filter elements for natural gas purification. Our media is molded into seamless tubes and reinforced with phenolic resin (a distinct improvement over some competitor’s “pipe insulation”). Natural gas is often dirty, wet and corrosive, and gas filters have to withstand liquid slugging and abrasion from pipe scale. Our cartridges use high efficiency seamless fiberglass tubes, reinforced with a spiral lockseamed center tubes for high collapse strength. Cross references to PECO, Peerless, King Tool, Jonell, Flo-Line and Banner. Since these filters are often installed ahead of large compressors, they must be designed to withstand vibration, pulsation, and abrasion from pipe scale and liquid slugging. Our center tubes feature a spiral-lockseam construction for high collapse strength, and the metal is plated for corrosion resistance. The end caps are bonded to the media and center tube with a high-strength adhesive.

Filtration Systems makes a wide range of panel air filters for engine air intake and operator/cab applications. Our sturdy panel air filters are built to handle pulsation, vibration and deflection created by engine air-intake systems. Optimum pleat formation is maintained by our computer-controlled pleater. Also available with washable and/or flame retardant media. Interchanges are vailable for companies such as Air Refiner, Royal, Donaldson, Air Maze, and Nelson. The large engine panels are reinforced for heavy duty use. They feature a washable media and a resilient “Poron” gasket for extended service life. Flame-retardant, high flow and water-repellent media are available, to fit your specific requirements. Each filter is heat-cured in automated pneumatic presses to produce perfectly square, rigid panels. Our frames are formed in-house from coil stock for good availability and cost-control.

Filtration Systems’ patented “Swirl Flow” technology is a breakthrough in depth filter design, providing exceptionally long life, high efficiency and low restriction to flow. Our unique rolled and layered construction provides improved efficiency and service life. Our patented “Swirl Flow” design has low pressure drop and extraordinary dirt holding capacity. Replacements available for companies such as PECO, United Engine Life, and Nelson/Winslow. Depth filters have excellent temperature and fluid compatibility and are used in numerous gas processing, large engine and compressor applications. We manufacture thousands of depth filter elements every day with highly automated equipment for consistent product quality and unsurpassed value.

Filtration Systems has a complete line of air filters for small engines and generators, as well as larger engine air-intake filters with metal end caps. Our engine air-intake filters are designed for low restriction and high dirt-holding capacity. The end caps can be either stamped metal or molded plastic. All come with resilient gaskets for positive seal to prevent leakage. Replaces Wix, Fram, NAPA, Baldwin, Nelson and Donaldson. These filters are made with a vinyl material known as “plastisol,” which bonds the pleated paper media. They also have soft rubber gaskets, to seal the filter in its housing. The cellulosic paper media meets or exceeds the OEM performance specifications. The pleat pack is protected with either a perforated metal, expanded metal or woven wire mesh screen outer wrap.
