Filtering paints, inks, adhesives, and other very thick fluids, can be a challenging task. Thicker viscosities make some filtration technologies such as wound cartridges useless as the pump has to work too hard to push the liquid through. This is where the term "void area" in a filter comes into play - the more void area (the space in between the fibers of a filter), the easier it is to flow thick solutions through.
Good choices include Parker's ProBond filter cartridge, bag filters, wedgewire screens, and strainers. Please consult with a H.C. Warner engineer for proper filter selection.
