Meissner SKR Filters
SKR filter cartridges are pleated, small-area filters for critical point-of-use filtration and small batch processing of liquids and gases.
Available in two sizes, the filters are designed for use in Meissner’s SKR filter housings and in competitive filter housings that accommodate a skirt-flange sealing mechanism. SKR filter cartridges are part of Meissner’s SFE (Small Flow Element) filter product line.
A skirt-flange adapter is integrally welded to the end cap of each SKR filter cartridge. When the cartridge is installed and the housing is fully assembled, the adapter prevents fluid bypass.
