ETM Filters

For fine particle removal in process gas and non-aqueous liquids.

ETM cartridge and capsule filters consist of a single-layer Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane. Designed to meet the needs of the electronics and high-purity chemical industries, ETM products are resistant to virtually all chemicals making them very effective in removing particles in gas and non-aqueous liquid filtration. They are most often used as final filters at the point of use, such as at tools. The ETM can also be ordered pre-wetted with water for use in aqueous solutions. Pore sizes range from 0.05 to 5.0 µm, and the filter sizes scale from laboratory to full production using identical materials to ensure consistent results. Each filter is individually tested to ensure integrity.
