3M™ Betafine™ PPG Series Filter Cartridge PPG020B02BB, 20 in, .2 um ABS, 226/Spear, SOE, Fluorocarbon, 6/Case

• Advanced Pleat Technology Construction for High Surface Area as compared to competitive filters: higher product throughputs for prolonged service life, lower total filtration operating costs, and lower pressure drops for higher flow rates.
• Absolute-rated Filter Performance. Higher product quality and yields.
• Graded-porosity Multi-layer Filter Media. Capture of contaminant throughout the filter media to help maximize filter life. Higher contaminant holding capacity.
• Polypropylene Construction Free of Adhesives and Surfactants. Very low extractable levels for optimum filtrate purity. Broad chemical compatibility for most aggressive process applications.
• 100% Integrity Tested Versions Available. Prequalification and consistency in critical applications. Suitable for final filtration in many applications.
• Robust polypropylene cartridge construction – extends service life and compatible with a wide range of solvents and cleaning solutions

This absolute-rated, graded-porosity multi-layer 100% polypropylene pleated filter features Advanced Pleat Technology (APT) that increases the usable filtration surface area while maintaining standard filter dimensions.

Our Advanced Pleat Technology (APT) construction combines: • Up to 50% more filter media (surface area) than competitive filters • Graded-density media for optimum contaminant holding • New cartridge design for increased flow and reduced pressure drop The result is a filter cartridge that lasts longer, performs better and saves money Our Betafine PBG Series filters for food and beverage applications are available in the following versions: • Model PEG: without stainless steel insert • Model PBG: with stainless steel insert • Model PTG: with factory certified integrity testing • Model PBP: (multi-layers) for final filtration or for membrane protection The APT Advantage Surface area dictates just how long a filter will last and how it will perform. However, increasing surface area without considering the flow path between the media’s pleats could result in flow restrictions and early media blinding. To achieve the optimum between surface area and performance, 3M Purification has designed Betafine PBG Series so that our pleating process and media support materials work together to provide enhanced flow characteristics and longer service life.
