SKU: MOW-GROUP-10027114
FULL PRODUCT LINE
Filter Sheets - 20 Cm X 20 Cm (5-7 Micron) are designed specifically for 20x20 plate filters, offering a reliable solution for wine filtration. These 5-7 micron pads are considered "rough" filtration and are typically used to prepare wine for finer filtration using 2-3 micron or 1.5 micron pads, depending on the winemaker's preferences and objectives. It is essential to note that all pad filters are rated 'nominal', meaning that around 90-95% of particulate matter at the micron rating will be filtered out. This means that some smaller material will also be filtered out, and some larger material may pass through.
These filter sheets are designed to be sterilized using various methods, including in-line steam, auto-claving, dry heat, hot water, or chemical methods. For optimal results, we recommend running Saniclean solution through the pads, followed by sterile water or a small amount of wine that is then discarded. After sterilization, the pads will need to be re-tightened to ensure optimal performance.
Each filter sheet has a distinct entry side and exit side, distinguishable by their textures. The entry side features a billowy texture, often referred to as the "rough" side, while the exit side has a crosshatch pattern and is commonly known as the "smooth" side. Understanding the difference between these two sides is crucial for effective filtration.
The 20cm x 20cm filter pads are designed to provide a reliable and efficient filtration process. By using these pads, winemakers can achieve better clarity and stability in their wines. The 5-7 micron rating ensures that most particulate matter is removed, while allowing the wine to retain its natural flavors and aromas.
In addition to their effectiveness, these filter sheets are also easy to use and maintain. They can be easily loaded into plate and frame filters, and their durable design ensures that they can withstand repeated use and cleaning.
Overall, the Filter Sheets - 20 Cm X 20 Cm (5-7 Micron) offer a reliable and efficient solution for wine filtration. Whether you're a seasoned winemaker or just starting out, these filter sheets are an essential tool for achieving high-quality wines. With their nominal 5-7 micron rating and durable design, they provide an effective and efficient way to remove particulate matter and improve the clarity and stability of your wines.
