Oil adsorbing filter bag

Oil Adsorbing Filter Bags

Oil-out laminated Polypropylene Filter Bags are the first line of defense in trace oil removal. This unique structure combines a Polypropylene felt with a Polypropylene micro-fibre, laminated together to provide excellent dirt holding capacity with extended oil removal capabilities.

Oil-out filter bags are available in all industry standard sizes with a 25 micron nominal retention level.

micron rated POMB and POMF filter bags Remove oil and dirt with our micron rated multi-layer POMB and POMF filter bags. Our High E (POMF) filter bags offer dirt holding capacities in efficiencies up to 99.9% †, while trapping trace amounts of oil in the depth of the multi-layers. For less critical applications, we offer the standard micron rated felt with added adsorbent layers (POMB) to increase the oil catching capacity. These bags are available in all standard configurations.

Oil removal technology

PSORB™ Oil removal technology offers enhanced oil removal capabilities by providing a specially blended micro-fibre core which dramatically increases the available surface area for oil adsorption. This unique design forces the process liquid through the micro-fibre core, where it can adsorb trace amounts of oil from a fluid stream. The specially blended micro-fibre core has the ability to adsorb up to 50 times its weight in oil.

oil water separator


OWS technology or "oily water separator" as it is known, incorporates the oil adsorbtion of granular activated carbon in a bag style element. This technology is intended for very low flow rates (below 2 US GPM) but provides the best oil removal capabilities of all the liquid filter bag configurations. These bags can be supplied pre-filled with activated carbon or can be purchased in a "carbon ready" format to be filled on site. The "carbon ready" version allows you to select the grade of carbon just right for the application.

† Verified by independent laboratory testing using latex beads yielding efficiencies up to 99.9% under controlled laboratory conditions.
