Candle, pleated and tube elements with custom cores, end fittings and housings built to your drawings.

  HOW WE WORK

number one

Tell us about your process.

Fluid, viscosity, temperature (°F), pressure (psi), flow rate, contaminants and target rating.

Number 2

We engineer the element.

Media, geometry and housing are specified for your service, including retrofits into existing housings.

Test it on your line.

We supply samples and support a trial before you commit.

About Nagase Filter Co., Ltd.

DENAFILTER is designed and manufactured by Nagase Filter Co., Ltd., a wholly owned NAGASE company, in Japan. NAGASE has served industrial manufacturers since 1832, with sales and technical support across the US and Canada.

SWITCHING TO DENAFILTER

Thinking about a change? We'll make it easy.

Whether you're qualifying a second source, planning ahead for supply, or looking for longer runs and fewer gels, moving to DENAFILTER is straightforward: 

One engineer from start to finish. The same DENAFILTER engineer handles your spec review, trial and qualification.


No re-engineering. Filters are made to fit your existing housings, so your line stays as it is.


Try before you commit. Start with a trial set, a DENALAB rental unit or a DENALYZER test on your own resin.


Change over at your pace. Qualify on one line or one housing first, then roll out across the plant when the data supports it.


Supplied across North America. Shipping to plants throughout the US and Canada, with sales and technical support through NAGASE.


WHAT TO HAVE READY

Speed up your review

✓   Filter type and nominal size (leaf disc, candle or pack)


✓   Inner-diameter type and hub style


✓  Current media type and micron rating


✓   Resin, melt temperature (°F), pressure (psi) and throughput (lb/hr)


✓   Filters per housing and typical change-out interval


✓   Current part number or drawing, if available


In most cases, yes. Our leaf discs are made to match other manufacturers' dimensions. Send us your current specs and we'll confirm.

Send it with your specs. Our engineers will identify the closest DENAFILTER equivalent and flag any differences.

Most plants verify a new filter on the line before full adoption. We can start with a trial set or a test on your own resin.

Yes. You can qualify DENAFILTER on a single line or housing first, then expand once the results are in.

We reply within two business days. [Confirm turnaround for a full recommendation with Denafilter.]

Yes. We design housings, center posts, heaters and valves if you're upgrading the whole system.
