Particulatematter is removed progressively throughout the media,resulting in a more efficient removal mechanismSome Typical PROGAF ApplicationsAll materials used in the construction of PROGAF FilterBags, including the multilayer melt-blown polypropylenemedia, are FDA/EC listed materials that meet theirrequirements for food contact applications. But food orbeverages are not the only applications that can takeadvantage of PROGAF’s high filtration efficienciesand capacity retention. The pharmaceutical, microelectronics,chemical, food, ink and paint, and watertreatment industries can also use PROGAF HighPerformance Filter Bags.Chemical and Pharmaceutical IndustriesDemanding filtration in high-purity industries are theapplications PROGAF was made for. Media capable ofremoval to 2 µm absolute with long service live is essentialfor activated carbon removal or catalyst recovery. Gelremoval requires a deep matrix of fine fibers. A PROGAFbag is ideally suited for each of these applications.Available in four filtration ratings, one of the PROGAFbags will deliver just the needed performance.Water FiltrationWater filtration applications have traditionally beendominated by cartridge filtration. Following extensiveworldwide trials, PROGAF 51 has demonstrated a log 3.5reduction of impurities in these demanding applications.Micro-ElectronicsThese applications typically require chemicals that areconstantly filtered to extremely low levels of particlecontaminant. PROGAF’s special profile, with its highefficiency media and graded density structure, providesperformance characteristics superior to that of traditionalcartridge type filtration. PROGAF out-performs cartridgesin terms of dirt-holding capacity, service life, and cost.Membrane prefiltration significantly reduces the SDIvalues in water filtration.Compare PROGAF to Filter Cartridges andSee the DifferenceThe two charts on the next page graphically illustrate theadvantages of PROGAF High Performance Filter Bagsover different types of filter cartridges. PROGAF FilterBags and filter cartridges come in many shapes and sizes.Compare PROGAF Filter Bags with their cartridge equivalentin material, micron rating and industry qualifications.Progressive structure of PROGAF filter bags deliversoperating differential pressure which starts and remainslower during filter life than other comparable filters. Thechart shown here illustrates the results of actual comparisontests made against two common styles ofcartridge filters: depth-loading and pleated polypropylene.During laboratory loading tests, the PROGAFfilters remained at the lowest differential pressure of any32

of the three over the life, illustrating the effectiveness ofthe progressively structured media.OPERATIONALCONSIDERATIONSBag PositionerTo ensure proper performance, PROGAF Filter Bags mustbe used with the HAYWARD Bag Positioner. Using themtogether aids bag insertion into the filter housing andassures correct alignment of the bag inside the restrainerbasket, prevents the bag from being pushed out of therestrainer basket in case of reverse flow, and makes bagremoval easier.Pre-Wetting in Aqueous SolutionsPROGAF filter bags are fabricated from fine polypropylenefiltration media. This material is hydrophobic, whichmeans that water will not wet the surface of the fibers.Therefore, a fluid with lower surface tension must first beused to wet the fibers, as well as cartridge filters madefrom this material. Prior to installation, you must firstimmerse the bags for a few minutes in a wetting solutioncompatible with the process fluid. After the fibers are wet,water is drawn in by capillary action.

Comprised of several filterstyles, CLEARGAF is the only filter bag to deliver:- Fully FDA compliant materials per 21CFR177- Fully EC compliant per 90/128/EEC- Independent testing and certification- Special single packaging and warehouse controlCLEARGAF Filter Bags for DirectContact with FoodstuffsFilter Bags are widely used for the filtration of fluids thatare directly or indirectly used as foodstuffs. In most applications,these types of filters must be carefully selectedto ensure that foodstuffs are not contaminated from theiruse. Most materials used to manufacture disposablefilters, including bag filters and cartridge filters, are polymers,which are generally selected for their purity in theapplication. Many of these materials, however, containmaterials that can diffuse out of the plastic into theprocess fluid. This effect, known as migration, can lead tofoodstuff contamination. For this reason, the use of polymersis often limited to products such as CLEARGAFFilter Bags, which are made from materials that havebeen documented as safe in food applications.CLEARGAF Filter Bags conform to both US FDA andEuropean EC regulations. The difference between theFDA and EC regulations is one of degree. FDA regulationlimits on migration are proportional to weight. EC limits,however, are based on area, and must be demonstratedin tests on finished articles. For heavy material, theEC limits can be up to 50 times more restrictive thanthe FDA ones.Independent VerificationYou can be sure all CLEARGAF Filter Bags meet theserequirements, because they have been evaluated, testedand certified for EC migration performance by an independentfood research institute. CLEARGAF FilterBags are also made only from materials listed in the USCode of Federal Regulations Title 21 Part 177. No othermaterials are added during fabrication.Special Manufacturing and PackagingCLEARGAF Filter Bags are manufactured under specialconditions to ensure that they contain no contamination.Immediately after manufacture, each bag is individuallysealed in protective plastic packaging to keep themcontamination-free. HAYWARD has special warehousingfacilities for CLEARGAF Filter Bags to further protectthem during storage. No other manufacturer goes tothese lengths to ensure the quality of their food gradefilter bags. For less demanding food and beverageapplications, HAYWARD offers a line of cost effectivefilter bags that are appropriate for many applications.40

HAYFLOW HAYWARD’s Revolutionary New Filter ElementHAYFLOW – The Next Generation ofFiltration SystemsWith this new, patent pending filter element HAYWARDtechnology has combined the best of both bag andcartridge filters into one single filtration element foroutstanding filtration performance. Because HAYFLOW’ssurface area is up to 70% greater than a similar size filterbag, existing systems that use HAYFLOW experiencelonger filter element life and less changing, resulting inreduced running costs. With HAYFLOW, designers ofnew bag filtration systems can opt for reduced runningcosts or, because of the high flow rates possible withHAYFLOW, reduce filter housing size by up to 50% thuslowering the initial cost of the system.What Makes the HAYFLOW ElementBetterThe heart of HAYWARD’s HAYFLOW filter element is twoconcentric cylinders of high-quality extended lifeHAYWARD filter media. These cylinders are formedusing unique welding technology to create a no by-passseam. The diameter of the cylinder is the same size as astandard filter bag, so retrofitting into existing systems iseasy. The HAYFLOW element is fitted with HAYWARD’spatented SENTINEL ® sealing ring, ensuring a positiveseal with the filter vessel to protect against bypass of theprocess media.How the HAYFLOW Element WorksThe process fluid enters the inside of the element,passes through it, and exits through the vessel outlet.Like a filter bag, the filtered-out material stays insidethe HAYFLOW element. The HAYFLOW element is unlikea filter cartridge, where the residue of the filtered materialremains on the outside of the cartridge, complicatingthe changing process.The concentricmedia layers arewelded onto a topand a bottom ringAn All-Around Better ChoiceChanging a HAYFLOW filter element can actually beeasier than changing a filter bag, because HAYFLOW’srevolutionary design only retains 25% of the residual liquidvolume of a similarly sized filter bag. When you need tochange the element, it weighs up to 75% less than afilter bag. A full bag can weigh up to 33 lbs, so weightis an important consideration for the system operator.44

NOMINALRATEDµmgpm0.1 1 10 100 10000 45 110 175 220Easy installationof HAYFLOW’sinto existing bagfilter housingsThe lower retention volume of HAYFLOW means less saleableproduct has to be thrown away. This importantHAYFLOW feature can provide considerable savings overtime. HAYFLOW’S cylindrical construction offers strengthunrivaled in other similar products. The all-welded filterelement is fit to a matching restrainer basket, allowing thefiltration media to be replaced easily and quickly. Theclose-tolerance fit of the filter and the restrainer basketprovide ease of installation and worry-free performance.This combination of fully-welded seams and a rigid, cylindricalgeometry provides strength over a full range of operatingdifferential pressure. The HAYFLOW element is alwayssmooth and fits to the basket walls without crimps orpleats, guaranteeing a quick and easy installation. Batchsystem operators often do not want to stop a batchprocess and change a filter bag. Using HAYFLOW, systemoperators have found up to 5 times the life over a similarsize filter bag and experienced reduced operating costs.Usually, bag filters are bigger than cartridge filters butare easier to handle and more cost effective. HAYFLOWbrings the best of both systems together...high flow ratesin compact vessels, or a longer lifetime and extendedchanging cycles. HAYFLOW combines highly efficientfilter media, enlarged surface area, better dirt-holdingcapabilities and a reduction of the residual liquid volumeretained in the element. All of these advantages result insuperior filtration performance.The Choice is YoursHAYWARD’s HAYFLOW filter elementcan be adapted to a wide rangeof applications through the use of differentfilter media. Basically, any weldable filtrationmedia can be used to construct aHAYFLOW element. Multilayered construction isalso possible for applications that require it. Usingmelt-blown polypropylene media, HAYFLOW elementsare available with high micron retention ratings, and withselective absorption characteristics as well. StandardHAYFLOW filter elements are available in both polypropyleneand polyester construction. These two materials arevery versatile and will perform in a majority of applicationsover a wide range of temperatures. HAYWARD uses ahigh-quality, extended life DURAGAF needle felt mediawith extremely fine fibers and higher pore volumes forsuperior performance.
