BRCN - Brevi-MAXX Charged Nylon 6,6 Membrane
Strainrite's Brevi-MAXX series of pleated filter cartridges offer a compact-size cartridge filter for smaller applications. Nearly all of our standard cartridge filter media, including membranes (PES polyethersulfone membrane, charged nylon, PTFE membrane and more) and pre-filtration materials (including polypropylene and glass fiber) can be placed into this 2.25" diameter configuration. This is an ideal format for smaller batches, lower flow rates, and smaller footprint compared to other traditional cartridges.
