BRGP - Brevi-MAXX Absolute-Rated Microglass Depth Cartridge
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.

Product Overview
The Brevi-MAXX BRGP cartridge uses absolute-rated microglass depth media for defined-retention prefiltration
and particle-removal service. Available ratings from 0.8 to 15µm provide multiple choices for clarification and protection of downstream components in smaller process systems.BRGP combines microglass media with polypropylene pleat support and hardware in a thermally bonded, compact cartridge. General, FDA, and pharmaceutical-grade configurations are available for pilot-scale, point-of-use, and compact OEM applications.
