The ECO filter not only has a very compact design but is
also extremely durable. The interval between screen
changes can last several weeks or even months depen-
ding on the material and level of contamination. During
this time, the melt pressure remains stable. The unit is de-
signed to remove contamination levels as high as 1.5 per-
cent by weight. Two sizes are available depending on the
capacity requirements: The ECO 200 is for throughputs
up to 1,500 kg/h and as the ECO 250 for a maximum of
3000 kg/h. In addition to polyolefin melts, it is also suit-
able for filtering easy-flowing materials such as PET or PA.
With their compact, space saving design ECO melt filters
can be retrofitted in existing extrusion lines without any
problems.
