Alternative filters
16 May 2016
With a range of more than 163,000 different filter element cartridges, Hi-line Industries is confident in its ability to provide a ‘one-stop’ filtration service for general industry, as well as the established compressed air, gas and vacuum and the widespread liquids handling and processing markets in this country.

To ensure their ability to service growing demands from the many UK commercial markets, Hi-line offers ‘copy exact’ alternative elements to ensure a simple ‘drop-in and seal’ installation procedure at the point of use. The Hi-line elements cover not only the compressed air (both coalescing and drying operations), together with the vacuum and breathing-air quality markets, but the liquids filtration requirements as associated with the chemical, processing, hydraulics, water, medical, breweries, dairies, pharmaceutical and many general food processing establishments.
Experienced plant engineers are aware that regular maintenance using OEM original equipment cartridges can prove expensive. However, growing numbers are turning to Hi-line’s proven experience in manufacturing ‘copy exact’ alternatives to these OEM filters. Hi-line says prices can be up to 75% less – without any detriment to build quality, performance or service life expectancy.
Hi-line alternative elements are manufactured to ISO 8573-1:2010 standards, complying with the necessary compressed air purity classes. Furthermore, in order to deliver over four times the filtration area compared to conventional wrapped or rolled media filters, a Hi-line pleated media construction is used, together with high quality stainless steel to ensure a robust solution for all industrial filtration requirements.
Replacement alternative filters supplied by Hi-line are said to be at least performance equal to any original filter elements that need to be replaced.
