Filter element donaldson micron rating

Donaldson Compressed Air Process Filtration offers a broad selection of filter elements for a wide range of liquid filtration applications. Donaldson P-GS filter elements are available in 13 sizes, three micron ratings and different connection options that meet virtually all purification requirements in steam, gas, and liquid filtration. The challenge, therefore, is to invent a filter media that has sufficiently small micron rating to filter foreign particles and wear elements, and also highly efficient to ensure continuous flow of fluids without restriction.

Selecting the right micron rating to achieve targeted ISO cleanliness without overbuilding the system will help avoid unnecessary cost. Absolute micron ratings are the only way to truly compare apples to apples, and beta ratios are the only way to compare actual filtration performance.

The first is the design of the filter element itself, and the second is the type of media that is used in such elements. OC 176. This is a low pressure spin-on filter cartridge with microglass media.
