Poromet® filter elements are standard element products designed for most commercial housings as well as our own line of housings. Poromet elements are built for high-temperature and high corrosion applications. They are superior quality filters whose performance exceeds every other competitive element. Poromet elements can lower your costs by providing longer on-stream life and years of trouble-free service. In addition, Poromet elements are easily cleaned and can help you avoid increasing disposal costs.
Standard Sizes
Poromet elements are designed to replace standard string-wound and pleated media cartridges. They are offered in 2 3/8″ diameter
by 10, 20, 30 and 40 inch lengths. Poromet elements are offered with the following end fitting configurations: double open ends, 1″ NPT, 222 double O-rings and 226 double O-rings with locking tabs.
Electron Beam Welded End Fittings
Purolator’s exclusive electron beam welding process provides superior product quality at reduced costs. Heat distortion, oxidation and sensitization are eliminated.
Extended Filtration Area
Poromet pleated elements have over twice the filtering area as competitive elements.
Gaskets and O-rings
Standard materials are Buna-N. Other compounds are also available.
Laser Marked End Fittings
Each Poromet element end fitting is permanently laser-marked for ease of identification and traceability.
316L Stainless Steel
All Poromet Series elements are made from 316L stainless steel filter media. They are ideal for temperatures up to 850°F, and highly corrosive applications.
Electro-Polished Butt-Welded Support Cores
Purolator-manufactured cores are designed to withstand pressures up to 250 psid. Electro-polishing removes all metal burrs, so the filtered fluids pass through the elements with less restriction.
Quality Control
Every Poromet element is bubble-point tested prior to shipment to ensure product integrity and performance.
