Absolute Rated Filter Bag – MAB Series

The CMI MAB Series Absolute Rated Filter Bags are designed for applications requiring high-efficiency, absolute-rated filtration up to 99%.
Built using multi-layer melt-blown polypropylene microfiber, these bags deliver precise particle retention comparable to pleated cartridges—but at a significantly lower cost.

All MAB bags are fully welded, eliminating the risk of bypass caused by sewing holes.
A final outer layer of PP woven fabric enhances handling strength, prevents fiber migration, and ensures clean operation for high-purity processes.

 

MAB Series is a high-efficiency absolute rated filter bag, and can be used as an equivalent for AGF absolute bags.”

 

The MAB Series is suitable for Food & Beverage applications and meets FDA-relevant material compliance requirements.
