Long Life

"Donaldson's pleated LifeTec elements provide cutting-edge filtration technology for liquid applications. 

The cage and pleat design within LifeTec elements significantly enhance filtration performance, all while reducing the total cost of ownership. In contrast to conventional melt-blown cartridges, LifeTec boasts superior holding capacity and lower pressure drop, resulting in extended operational life and fewer replacement cycles. Furthermore, LifeTec's exceptional retention rate provides enhanced protection for your processes, safeguarding your product and brand against potential contaminants."

Structural Stability

Structural StabilityWhen installing elements, they are frequently twisted into place to ensure proper positioning. With conventional rectangular cage designs, this twisting action can subject the element to excessive stress, potentially causing damage to the support structure and inner media. This damage can significantly compromise the element's effectiveness.

LifeTec's robust support cage structure is engineered to resist deformation, preventing media failure. This design enhances reliability and reduces costs by extending the number of cleaning and sterilisation cycles the filter can undergo.

Significant Savings

Significant SavingsProcess owners who prioritise cost efficiency understand that LifeTec offers substantial savings.

LifeTec filters have a longer lifespan, leading to reduced filter replacements, decreased expenses for labour and replacements, and minimised production interruptions. 

When seeking a proven technology that delivers savings in energy, maintenance, and filter costs, LifeTec is the way forward.
