Tandem Products

The "Mixed Double" product that provides for increased separation efficiency!

The family of products called TANDEM™ combines the excellent filtration characteristics of P84™ fibers along with the significant advantages of other polymers.This asymmetric construction of dissimilar filter media employs technical optimization in order to achieve the profitability goals of your operation. The P84™ fiber, with its unique multi-lobular configuration, offers a filtration surface that is 60% greater than that of the dissimilar polymer used for the substrate.The results:

• Outstanding separation efficiency
• Excellent permeability regeneration capacity
• Dust does not penetrate into the depths of the felt structure
• Pressure drops are minimized (electrical cost savings)
• Extended bag life

Depending upon the application, TANDEM™ offers the following opportunities:

• Higher production capacities
• Lower emissions
• Lower operation costs
• The optimal value proposition between product price and resultant filtration efficiencies.

TANDEM can be provided in:

• Albarrie Polyester
• Albarrie Acrylic
• Albarrie PPS
• Albarrie Aramid
• Albarrie Basalt
• Albarrie Poly-Ox™
• Albarrie PTFE™

The Advantages of Using Albarrie Tandem™

• High separation efficiency at startup and during operation
• High separation efficiency at high air to cloth ratios
• Low resistance to flow
• Reduced cleaning pressure
• Lower chance of blinding
• Reduced operating costs
• Lower down time due to extended life of bags
• Equal to or better than other membranes at a lower entry cost
• Easier to install
• Easier to handle

A three fold increase in production does not affect the separation efficiency of the Albarrie Tandem fabric.

Albarrie Tandem™ versus Membrane Laminated Fabric

Pressure buildup is over two and a half times lower for Albarrie Tandem while achieving virtually the same separation efficiency in side by side tests compared with membrane laminated fabric.

Tandem versus Polyester Fabric

Albarrie Polyester Tandem fabric yields higher separation efficiency coupled with lower pressure buildup during comparative filtration tests with a standard polyester fabric.

Albarrie Tandem™ can solve any of the following problems:
