High Performance Filtration Systems

Since its inception FTA has developed a unique place in the heavy and light industrial, manufacturing processes, trucking, automotive and mining sectors across Australia.

Filter Technology Australia's knife-edge filtration systems deliver low cost, compact and easy to maintain systems suitable for use in oil or fuel.

In this world of high component cost and expensive down time, maintaining cleanliness of fuel and oil is the key to improved efficiency of your plant and equipment.

The key to the success of FTA's technology is the way in which oils, fuels and solvents pass through the filter media. FTA's by-pass oil and full flow fuel filters differ from conventional filtration systems because FTA media is tightly wound around a central core to a predetermined tension. The core is then pressure packed into a Zytel canister.

The oils, fuels or solvents pass between the tightly wound media. This is where the term depth filtration comes from, as the fluid passes down the entire length of the filter media.
