Fact Sheet
Dairy JX Series
Microfiltration – Clarification and Fat Removal
The Dairy JX microfiltration elements are character-
ized by a nominal pore size of 0.3micron and are
low fouling when oils and grease are present. These
elements are used for the removal of fat and colloi-
dal impurities in food process streams and are often
used in cheese brine clarification.
These elements feature a Durasan* Cage patented
outer wrap, a selection of feed spacers, and polysul-
fone parts.
The Dairy JX elements comply with:
FDA Regulations relevant sections of 21CFR
EU Framework 1935/2004/EC
