Polypropylene Filter Bags
Perfect for filtering your biodiesel or SVO (straight vegetable oil)
or any other kind of liquid with really fine debris (That you can't see) in it.
Why polypropylene? A little more chemical resistant than Polyester for some applications. The surface of the fabric is also slightly smoother and easier to clean.
Choose between 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 Micron (Polypropylene)
Mix & Match allowed
(Declare micron sizes at check-out using paypal's comment box)

They make filtering EASY!

Wise Advise (Everyone read first!):
The Best Way to Filter
Use
600-400-200-100 micron strainers (see my other auctions) stacked on top
of a bucket or barrel to pre-filter your liquids. Then filter in
succession through as many different sized filter bags as possible. For
example 50-25-10-5-1 micron (bags stuffed inside of each other). You
can use higher micron sized bags in place of the strainers. Your
filters will last a LOT LONGER if you filter in succession rather than
straight into a 10 micron filter, and you will SAVE MONEY. Same goes
for strainers-Filter in succession, not right into the 100 micron. I
get around 800 gallons per set of bag filters before I need to throw
them out (without washing them). I have made all my auctions cheap on a
per bag basis rather than in lots so you can get what you want and what
will work best for you. Enjoy the savings and take advantage of it!

DESCRIPTION
Filter
bags are used to filter out unwanted debris from liquids. Once
prefiltering has been done with the EZ-strainer, these filter bags do
an excellent job at removing the smaller debris.
Due to the fine
filtering of these fine particle removing bags, it is recommended that
you filter your liquids through coarser filters first to preserve life
of the filter bag. For vegetable oil, you should first strain it
through a 400 or 600 micron strainer, then filter through a 200 then
100 (stacked on top of each other). Then you will be able to move onto
the 50, 25, 10, 5 and 1 micron filter bags. You can filter oil in
succession; put the coarser bags inside of the finer bags for a
one-time pass through all of them at the same time.
The
bags are equipped with a stainless steel ring which is designed to be a
gasket as well as support for the filter bag when used in a housing.
There is a band sewn on the top for hanging (gravity filtration)
applications.
The diameter of the bags is 7 inches and the depth
is 16 inches. The felt used is very high grade and sewn well so the
bags will take quite a beating without falling apart.
What's a
micron? A micron is one millionth of a meter. To give you an idea, most
diesel filters on your vehicle filter between 6-10 micron. So if you
filter down to 5 or 1 micron, you are doing your filters a great favor
and not clogging them.
The efficiency of fabric is about 80%.
This means that 80% of the particles passing through the bag of the
rated micron size or higher are caught in the fabric. If you run
through two bags, (or twice through) you will catch 96% of the
particles. It is most recommended to filter in succession of micron
sizes to increase filter life and increase overall efficiency. (For
example, use 50, 25, 5, and 1 micron bags inside of each other)
Max recommended temperature is 300 degrees. If you actually test that temperature, please don't burn yourself.
Rumors:
Some people claim that polypropylene will not let water pass through
them. This is not true at all. Any liquid will pass through felt
materials. The only way to remove water is via boiling, settling or
centrifugal means. The only difference between polyester and
polypropylene is the efficiency and chemical resistivity (Will not
degrade as much when used with biodiesel). Polyester is the best for
filtering WVO since they are cheap and easy to work with.
