Fount filtration can have marked improvements on print quality once installed.
A 'must have' for printers running low or no alcohol...
Most presses have fount filtration installed, however these are typically rated at only seventy five microns, and over time will affect print quality.
 The performance speaks for itself we used to dump the fount every two weeks, now its two to three months. 
Lincoln Barnwell, Director of Barnwell Print
The PUREFILTER, three stage filter, filters down to one micron and when installed will reduce press down time, which can often be two hours per week, by extending the life of the fount.
- Three stage filtration
- Capable of filtering 24/7
- Warning light for blocked filters
- Pressure gauge to inform staff when filters need changing
- Easily installed on either circulator or near wall
- Reduces paper dust and calcium build-up on rollers
- Less chemical usage
- Better for the environment
- More stable press chemistry
Modern litho printing requires exacting standards from fountain solutions, and to achieve this, and function at their best require a little care.
PUREFILTER self contained filtration units from Mayday Graphics provides stable, filtered, clean fountain solution, and have high filtering abilities, all necessary for high quality printing.
PUREFILTER consists of an electric pump that continually circulates the fountain solution independently from the press circulation through three integral fi lters 24 hours a day whether the machine is in operation or not keeping the fount solution clean and vastly reducing the need to drain down and refill.
This reduces chemical usage particularly in low or no alcohol applications, there is a built in pressure switch to protect the pump if the filters block and a pressure gauge to tell the operators when the filters need replacing.
