FILTER BAGS
The convenience and economy of liquid bag filtration is now feasible for filtration applications that previously required other, more expensive systems. Because demanding or critical applications can be complex, an Eaton Applications Specialist is available to perform a no-obligation analysis of your process. Learn how one of these high performance filter bags can work in your system, whether your system already exists or is in the design stage. |
|
 | ACCUGAF The ACCUGAF filter bag pushes the boundaries of bag filtration technology far beyond traditional designs. With efficiencies greater than 99% each ACCUGAF filter bag provides cost effective filtration solutions for demanding applications. |
 | CLEARGAF CLEARGAF is the first and only series of filter bags specifically designed for the requirements of the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. |
 | DURAGAF DURAGAF filter bags have a unique design that delivers equal filtration performance with lifetimes 2 to 5 times longer than ordinary felt media bags. |
 | HAYFLOW Take advantage of the best of both bag and cartridge filtration with the HAYFLOW Filter Element, a new development in filtration technology from Eaton. |
 | LOFCLEAR LOFCLEAR filter bags now make absolute filtration viable in many applications where only standard bags could be used in the past due to cost constraints. |
 | SENTINEL Now, applications requiring polypropylene or polyester felt filter bags can take advantage of the all-welded construction afforded by Eaton SENTINEL® Filter Bags. These bags, made from silicone free materials feature super-strong welded construction rather than sewn seams. |
 | PROGAF In comparison with other filtration technologies, PROGAF delivers lower operating costs while retaining the ease of change-out typical of a bag filer. |
 | SNAP-RING Whether you have a filter vessel from Eaton or a vessel from another manufacturer, there is a SNAP-RING Filter Bag that will fit it perfectly. So no matter what type of filter vessel your application uses, you can take advantage of the performance benefits afforded by a SNAP-RING Filter Bag from Eaton. |
 | Oil Removal The Eaton Oil Absorption Insert is the ultimate solution for increased oil removal capacity. It is made of meltblown polypropylene with a spun bound cover and a polypropylene extruded core for support. |
 | UNIBAG The UNIBAG from Eaton is manufactured from newly designed needlefelt media made from premium recycled fibers without optical white additives. It is singed on the outside for maximum stability and the prevention of fiber release. |

Filter Bags From Eaton....
The Perfect Partner For Eaton Filter Vessels
FELTS
Operating on the principle of depth filtration, needled felt filter bags are effective at removing both solid and gelatinous particles. 100% pure fibers are needled to create a tortuous path in a three-dimensional medium. Materials available are polypropylene, polyester, nylon, PTFE and Nomex.
Felt Advantages Include:
- High dirt holding capacity
- Capability to remove gelatinous particles
- Cost-effective filtration due to long service life
MULTIFILAMENT MESH
Operating on the principle of surface filtration, multifilament mesh filter bags are manufactured from mesh material in which each strand consists of hundreds of thin interwoven fibers. The multifilaments are woven in a specific, consistent pattern. Multifilament meshes offer the lowest unit cost in filter bags. They are available in polyester with micron ratings from 100 to 800 microns.
MONOFILAMENT MESH
Also operating on the principle of surface filtration, monofilament mesh filter bags are manufactured from mesh materials in which each strand is a single filament. The non-deformable filaments are woven in a specific, consistent pattern and fusion welded for extra strength. Monofilament meshes are structurally very strong and are available in both nylon and polypropylene with micron ratings from 5 to 800.
Monofilament Mesh Advantages Include:
- Absolute rated medium
- High mechanical strength
OIL ADSORPTION
Manufactured from a combination of polypropylene felt, meltblown polypropylene and a protective polyester mesh cover, the oil adsorption filter bag series is designed to remove oils and hydrocarbon liquids from aqueous fluids, while providing the benefits of particle retention.
Oil Adsorption Advantages Include:
- Unparalleled adsorption characteristics for oils and hydrocarbons
- Higher flow rates
- Superior levels of adsorption efficiency via controlled flow velocity
MELTBLOWN POLYMERS
High efficiency ACCUGAF™ and PROGAF™ series filter bags are available in polypropylene meltblown materials. These filter bags are manufactured with welded seams and utilize the patented bypass-proof SENTINEL® seal ring in order to maintain the high efficiency of the meltblown material in the bag configuration. ACCUGAF™ and PROGAF™ series bags offer high efficiency filter media with graded density profile to maximize dirt holding capacity and prolong service life. Both bags are manufactured from materials that are compliant with FDA standards for food, beverage and pharmaceutical applications.
