The Pentek KE100G2S is a polyester felt bag filter with a 100-micron nominal rating. This makes it ideal for coarse filtration applications where larger sediment, scale, and particulate removal is needed before finer downstream filtration. The polyester felt media provides efficient depth filtration while maintaining excellent flow rates in industrial and commercial bag filter housings.

The Pentek KE100G2S is a Size 2 bag filter measuring approximately 7 inches in diameter by 32 inches in length, with a filtration surface area of about 1.0 square foot. It is engineered to fit standard Size 2 bag filter housings, including Pentek BPT and BPH series housings, as well as other industry-standard #2 size vessels. The plastic sealing ring (indicated by the "S" in the model number) ensures a secure, leak-free seal within compatible housings.

The Pentek KE100G2S supports a maximum flow rate of up to 180 GPM (gallons per minute) in properly sized housings, making it suitable for high-volume industrial and commercial applications. Service life varies based on water quality and particulate load, but the filter should be replaced when the differential pressure reaches 25 PSID (pounds per square inch differential) or after noticeable flow reduction. In typical applications, replacement every 1–3 months is common.

The KE100G2S is designed for industrial process water, pre-RO filtration, cooling tower water, wastewater treatment, chemical processing, plating solutions, and machine coolant filtration. Its polyester felt construction is chemically compatible with a wide range of fluids, including acids, alkalis, and many solvents, with a maximum operating temperature of 275°F (135°C), making it a versatile choice for demanding filtration environments.

The Pentek KE100G2S is a single-use, disposable polyester felt bag filter and is not designed to be washed or reused. Attempting to clean and reuse the filter can compromise its structural integrity, reduce filtration efficiency, and allow trapped contaminants to bypass the media. Once the differential pressure limit is reached, the used filter should be removed and disposed of according to local regulations, especially if it has been used to capture hazardous or regulated contaminants.
