Construction: Betafine™ XL series filters feature 100% PP Polypropylene filter cartridge construction. This provides chemical and thermal compatibility (up to 80C) in many demanding process fluid applications. Betafine™ XL filters are constructed from continuous micro-fibers that provide a uniform matrix and minimize shedding.
3M’s Advanced Pleat Technology (APT):
Pleated filters may offer a large gross surface area, but only part of the surface area is usable when the media is packed too tightly into the cartridge – resulting in both flow restrictions and limited contaminant holding capacity. The “blind” or unusable area commonly occurs near the inside diameter, where the pleats are packed most tightly. The 3M Betafine™ XL Filter Cartridges feature 3M’s Advanced Pleat Technology (APT) design for extended service life. This design maximizes the useful surface area while maintaining open flow paths between media pleats.
