Microglass filtration for fluid power and automotive applications

LyPore® Defender is Lydall Filtration's newest liquid media series of products for dirt holding, particle removal, and flow. Lydall's formulations are optimised for each grade to provide pleated configuration. According to the company, these grades are optimal when co-pleated with multiple support layers and can be used as the sole efficiency and dirt holding layer or in conjunction with a separate pre-filter

Stu Krupnick, market manager for Lydall Filtration commented on the LyPore® Defender: "We are excited about the performance of this new product and it shows Lydall's continued investment in R&D to advance the performance capabilities of microglass and the art of filtration in fluid power and automotive applications."

Lydall says LyPore® Defender can be used in virtually any industrial liquid application that requires high performance and long life. The Defender series is available in 3, 6, 10 and 20 micron efficiencies with standard acrylic latex binder or optional epoxy binder for more demanding fluid and temperature requirements.
