POREX® Inline Vacuum Filters filter dust and other small particles from the vacuum flow to reduce the risk of operation breakdown or stoppage in the pump. The miniature filters can be used on compressed air lines or vacuum lines to protect vacuum pumps, vacuum switches, and valves from contamination. The Inline Filters are constructed of […]
View More In 1974, Porex introduced the very first porous plastic vent designed and engineered for use as a flame arrestor for lead-acid batteries. Since then, Porex has produced billions of porous plastic vents supplied to battery manufacturers globally. POREX® Battery Vents are utilized as single and multiple-component flame arrestors and designed to provide a durable, cost-effective […]
View More Porex® Porous Plastic Silencers, constructed of polyethylene, were engineered to balance noise reduction and acceptable backpressure in the pneumatic system. In addition, the porous polyethylene composition used for the silencer solution provides a significantly lower weight, excellent corrosion resistance, and the ability to filter particles and aerosols. The Porex silencers are equipped with an injection-molded […]
