Products Clarity™ Cartridges & Capsules Small-Volume Pleated Cartridges

BRVM - Brevi-MAXX Vent MAXX

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 BRVM cartridge uses a double-layer PTFE membrane construction for compact vent-filtration service. Its 0.2 µm absolute-rated retention and 2.25-inchdiameter format make it a focused solution for smaller tanks, point-of-use vents, utility drops, and compact OEM systems.BRVM is available in 2-, 4-, and 5-inch lengths to match system capacity and space requirements. The compact format supports low hold-up and easy integration where a full-size cartridge would be impractical.
