PENTAIR Compax - Conventional Cartridge Filters
The major innovation in COMPAX is its elegant simplicity. It consists of two parts: the COMPAX coreless elements and the reusable core. The reusable COMPAX core is semi-permanently installed into the existing filter vessel without the need for special tools. After installation of the cores, the open end of the COMPAX cartridge slides down over the length of the core and engages a positive sealing O-ring to integrally seal the filter and core together. The reusable cores have standard collapse ratings of 75 or 150 psi, depending on the series and material of construction. Higher collapse ratings are available upon request.
- COMPAX saves money by lowering operating costs and reducing disposal costs compared to conventional cartridge filters.
- It offers superior cost/performance value when comparing filters with the same efficiencies or Beta ratings.
- Performance, disposability, and cost-effectiveness make COMPAX the right choice for new filtration applications or upgrading conventional cartridge filter applications.
COMPAX coreless filters are available with a broad range of media types and micron ratings to match the requirements of the application. The reusable cores have standard collapse ratings of 75 or 150 psi, with higher ratings available upon request. The open end of the COMPAX cartridge slides down over the length of the core and engages a positive sealing O-ring to integrally seal the filter and core together.
If you are currently using a conventional filter – pleated, depth, molded or string wound, nominal or Beta rated – you can have COMPAX performance without purchasing new filters or modifying existing housings. Whether it is for water, amines, chemicals, hydrocarbons, oils, coolants, inks, paints, or other fluids, for prefiltration or final filtration, there is a COMPAX system that is right for the application.
