General Grade PES Cartridges are designed for general purpose use wherever a cost effective membrane filter is required. Manufactured to hold the maximum amount of filter media that can be completely and effectively utilized in a cartridge. General Grade Cartridges are manufactured from an inherently hydrophilic PES membrane. The cartridge offers excellent flow characteristics, extended service life, and broad chemical compatibility.
