FILTRATION MEDIA
BECO® MEMBRAN PS Beer Cartridges
Constructed using robust polyethersulfone membrane material, polypropylene support
fleeces to protect the membrane, and a polypropylene cage and core to ensure maximum
mechanical stability. Can be used together with the BECO PROTECT® FS, ensuring superior
protection and maximized throughput for the BECO® MEMBRAN PS.
y Asymmetric polyethersulfone membrane provides high microbiological retention and
reliable integrity testing.
y High filter area (25.2 ft2 per 30”) cartridge along with the asymmetric membrane
structure offers high flow rates and outstanding service life.
y Special design allows for 72.5 psi (5 bar) differential pressure in the direction of flow
and 29 psi (2 bar) differential pressure in reverse to support maximum throughputs.
y High thermal stability allows more than 100 steam sterilization cycles at a maximum
of 1 bar at 250°F and hot water sanitation up to maximum temperature of 194°F.
y Broad chemical compatibility.
y Available in 0.45 and 0.65 μm (Absolute), code 7, 30” (750 mm).
y Supports full maintenance of valuable flavor and color in final product.
BECO PROTECT® FS Pre-Filter and Clarification Cartridges
Innovative depth filtration cartridges with a unique design of specially pleated
polypropylene fleeces with a larger filter surface area and depth that supports particle
retention capacity. Used together with the BECO® MEMBRAN PS Cartridges, they
pre-filter beer ensuring superior protection and maximized throughput for the BECO®
MEMBRAN PS Cartridges.
y High retention for reliable separation effect (Beta Ratio ≥ 5000 or ≥ 99.98%
efficiency for defined particles).
y Outstanding protection for subsequent membrane filtration due to fine, new filter
material (by 0.2 μm – Type).
y Self-supporting pleats ensure excellent backflush capabilities.
y Backflushable up to 29 psig (200 kPa, 2 bar) at 176°F (80°C).
y High chemical resistance due to 100% polypropylene materials.
y High thermal stability allows steam sterilization and hot water sanitation (max. temp 194°F).
y Red bayonet tip easily distinguishes it from final filter.
y Available in 0.5, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 μm, code 7 and length of 30” (750 mm).
y Full maintenance of valuable flavor and color in final product.
BECODISC® & BECODISC® R+ Lenticular Filter Cartridges
Characterized by maximum purity and comprised of the same mineral-free depth filtration
material as the BECOPAD®, BECODISC® support a wide range of applications including
coarse and sterile filtration of all liquid media. Outer edge is coated with polypropylene
and sealed. Precisely-fitting intermediate profile rings seal the space between filter cells.
Cartridge held together by three-part segmented stainless steel sleeve that ensures
excellent mechanical sealing and eliminates leakage.
y Full range of grades available for clarification and/or preparation for sterile filtration.
y Easy operation including quick set up and change out time.
y Small footprint.
BECODISC® Forward Flow and Not Backflushable.
y Available in 12” diameter x 16 cell, providing 20.5 ft2 surface area.
y Available in 16” diameter x 16 cell — special order only.
BECODISC® R+ are engineered with an additional support cage and are backflushable.
y Available in 12” diameter x 17 cell, providing 22.6 ft2 surface area — special order only.
y Available in 16” diameter x 17 cell, providing 43.1 ft2 surface area — special order only.
