Bulk Ink Filtration

You have been diverted to the Porvair Filtration Group website from www.inprinta.com as this site is no longer active.

Porvair is the manufacturer of the products formerly branded Inprinta. 

The general process of inkjet manufacture will start with manufacture of a ‘concentrate'. This mixture is produced from the colourants, dispersants and a carrier. This concentrate can then be used to produce multiple batches of a finished inkjet ink.

Once completed the concentrate is mixed with other raw materials (more carrier fluid, surfactants, and stabilising chemistries). Once fully mixed this becomes the final, pre-filtered, bulk ink. This can then be filtered and stored by container – whether it be a 200 litre bulk drum or a 7ml SoHo cartridge.

The final filtration process is often in series. Where a 10µm, 5µm and 1µm work together to produce a perfect finished ink whilst allowing manufacture to continue for the longest time before a filter change is required.

E-coats, primers, top coats, metallic and pearlite paints can all benefit from controlled filtration using our polypropylene filter cartridges.

Porvair Filtration Group supply Klearfil™ and Tekfil™ as a complete range of 10" filter cartridges for the manufacture of bulk inkjet fluid. These meltblown polypropylene cartridges are based on a robust all polypropylene construction, offering removal ratings from 0.5μmto 75μm.

Suitable for the filtration of aqueous and organic liquids, KlearfilTM and Tekfil™ cartridges can be used as prefilters, series filters or final filters in the manufacture of bulk inkjet fluid.

Polyfil™ filters have precise cut-off removal ratings allowing metallic and pearlite particles to pass through whilst removing unwanted agglomerates.  Klearfil™ will remove gels from E-coats and primers. 

Our high contaminant capacity disposable cartridge filters help to achieve lower running costs and a smaller process footprint. All filters have excellent chemical compatibility characteristics and have no surfactants or bonding agents, to minimise extractables and are manufactured in an ISO cleanroom.

A full range of stainless steel industrial and sanitary housings are available from 10 bar to 20 bar, with both single and multi-element housings to suit every application. The housings have in-line BSP port connections for ease of installation. Tri-clover and weld connections are available.
