BRPG - Brevi-MAXX PG
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 BRPG cartridge combines nominally rated polypropylene depth media with the compact Brevi-MAXX platform. A broad selection of ratings from 0.25 to 50 µm makes BRPG a flexible choice for general prefil
tration, clarification, and protection of downstream equipment or finer filters. The cartridge uses polypropylene media support, cage, core, and endcaps with thermally bonded construction. It is available in general, FDA, and pharmaceutical-grade configurations for pilot, point-of-use, small-batch, and compact OEM applications
