Product details

Enhanced contaminant reduction. Reduced filtration costs.

3M™ LifeASSURE™ IMC Series Filter Cartridge

Enhanced contaminant reduction. Reduced filtration costs.
3M™ LifeASSURE™ IMC Series Filter Cartridges feature a naturally hydrophilic Nylon 6,6 membrane with polypropylene components which provides low extractables, increased filter life and superior contaminant reduction for industrial filtration. These filters are ideally suited for DI water, critical parts cleaning and numerous chemical applications where high-efficiency contaminant reduction at 0.1, 0.2 and 0.45 μm is required.
Naturally hydrophilic Nylon 6,6 membrane.

Naturally hydrophilic Nylon 6,6 membrane.

Polypropylene components provide low extractables, increased filter life and effective contaminant reduction.

Advanced Pleat Technology (APT).

Advanced Pleat Technology (APT).

The 3M™ LifeASSURE™ IMC Series Filter Cartridge is manufactured using a continuously variable pleat height configuration, which utilizes the open space between the outside pleats. This novel technology maximizes capacity by increasing the filtration area which allows for greater particle loading. The result is a fully used surface area that provides increased filter life.

Absolute rated.

Absolute rated.

Users can integrity test 3M™ LifeASSURE™ IMC Series Filter Cartridges for bubble point, diffusive flow or pressure hold procedures while the filters are in the housing to ensure proper installation and operation.

Lower total industrial filtration costs.

Lower total industrial filtration costs.

Less energy consumption, filter wear and labor results in a reduced cost of ownership over time.

  • No IPA pre-wetting required, which avoids a potential source of contamination and chemical interaction, while reducing downtime and hazardous waste disposal
  • Reduces potential for micro-bubble formation by not de-wetting in outgassing fluid unlike hydrophobic membranes such as Polypropylene, Polyethylene or PTFE
  • Enhanced contaminant reduction capacity results in longer filter life than competing filter cartridges
  • Economic alternative to PTFE filter cartridges when compatible
  • Superior flow characteristics in a compact design reduces the number of required filter elements
  • Increased flow rates provide faster bath clean-up and reduced energy consumption
  • Provides a low differential pressure to minimize micro bubble formation
  • Increased throughput and filter lifetime lowers cost of ownership

Suggested Applications

  • DI Water
  • Critical Parts Cleaning
  • Chemical Filtration
  • Industrial Filtration
  • Membrane filtration
