FDA Compliant Materials

N/A ACCUGAF Polypropylene filter bags are constructed entirely of materials compliant to FDA requirements for materials in contact with food. All materials conform to US Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR Part 177 and EU Directive 2002/72/EC.

Applications

N/A Although ideally suited for food and beverages, ACCUGAF filter bags will deliver equal performance in a wide range of demanding applications such as:

  • Beer, wine, spirits and beverage filtration
  • Fine particle removal in parts cleaning
  • Final filtration of lacquers
  • Final filtration of vinegar
  • Activated carbon removal in process systems
  • Final filtration of hydraulic oils and lubricants

Bag Positioner

N/A ACCUGAF filter bags must be used with the Eaton bag positioner. This eases insertion and assures correct alignment of the filter bag inside the restrainer basket. In addition, the filter bag will be protected against damage to inadvertent back-flow.

Pre-Wetting in Aqueous Solutions

N/A ACCUGAF polypropylene filter bags are fabricated from microfiber filtration media. These materials are hydrophobic, indicating that water will not wet the fiber surfaces. As will all other fine polypropylene filters, a lower surface tension fluid (wetting agent) must be used to wet the media prior to introducing water. Prior to service, the filter bags must be immersed in a wetting solution compatible with the process fluid. After wetting, an aqueous fluid will be drawn into the media through capillary action. Full details about installation and wetting are provided with every box of ACCUGAF filter bags.
