Donaldson LifeTec process filter range

The Donaldson LifeTec process filter range captures dust, bacteria and the Cryptosporidium and Giardia parasites that could sicken humans and cripple food manufacturers in the event that these microscopic pests contaminated the product, providing assurance of filtration performance, stability and service life for sterile filtration.

The LifeTec cartridge is designed for manufacturers that must filter and sterilise water and other liquids to make mineral water, soft drinks, cheese, yoghurt, wine, beer and other beverage products. It has been approved for Food Contact Use according to FDA CFR Title 21 and (EC) No 1935/2004, providing assurance of filtration performance.

Manufacturers benefit from increased filtration media, according to the company, with up to 20% more media versus comparable products delivering higher flow rates and longer filter life. A rigid support cage resists the deformation that leads to media failure. The product’s high-performance materials have been engineered for direct and indirect food contact for regulatory and audit compliance.
