Installed into Viledon sinTexx filter cartridges, this new corrugated polyester medium with nanofiber lining is said to achieve optimum performance when dealing with fine and difficult-to-handle dust and smoke. Compared to conventional corrugated polyester materials and ePTFE (expanded polytetrafluoroethylene) membranes, the Viledon sinTexx media with nanofiber lining offers several advantages, says the manufacturer: Higher collection efficiency, even during initial operation; lower flow resistance, which reduces power and compressed-air consumption and extends their useful lifetime; and customary precoating is not required. — Freudenberg Filtration Technologies SE & Co.
