BRPP - Brevi-MAXX Absolute-Rated Polypropylene 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 BRPP cartridge uses absolute-rated polypropylene depth media for compact prefiltration and
particle-removal applications. Ratings from 1 to 70 µm allow users to select the level of clarification needed ahead of finer filtration or at the point of use.Its all-polypropylene media support and hardware, thermally
bonded construction, and compact 2.25-inch diameter make BRPP a practical option for small systems, pilot processing, utility filtration, and OEM equipment. General, FDA, and pharmaceutical-grade configurations are available.
