Mon-A-Vac Disposable Media Vacuum Fluid Filtration Systems

The PRAB Mon-A-Vac is a disposable media vacuum filter that maximizes contaminant removal. Filters utilize a vacuum chamber to draw dirty coolant through the disposable filter media. They apply the proven principle of optimal filtration through contaminate or sludge build-up, forming a cake on the filter media. Filtration is maximized as caking builds up on the media. Standard vacuum filter units are available with flow rates up to 3,000 GPM.

Mon-A-Matic Semi-Permanent Media Vacuum Fluid Filtration Systems

The PRAB Mon-A-Matic is a semi-permanent media vacuum filter that removes particulate down to 10 microns. This vacuum filter uses a synthetic filter media to reduce operational costs while providing fine particulate removal. Backflushing the filter with clean coolant keeps the filter clean and eliminates the need for large volumes of air. The backflushed solids drop from the filter element and settle into a tank where they are removed via an automatic chain dragout.
