Festo Develops Filters for Food Zones 

Festo recently introduced its MS series of filtration products that lower the risk of particle contamination when compressed air comes into direct contact with food or packaging in the food zone. 

The MS series is designed for food and packaging-in-food-zone applications in the dairy, baking, produce, processed foods, pet foods, craft beer, cold food processing, and beverage industries. The series is suitable for industries outside of food and beverage where clean compressed air enhances the longevity and efficient operation of pneumatic cylinders and processes. 

The three different models in the series – MS4, MS6, and MS9 – not only conform to FDA and Food Safety Modernization Act guidelines for clean air, they also meet or exceed the top national and international benchmarks, including Safe Quality Food Institute Codes Edition 9, 3-A standard 604-05, British Compressed Air Society Guideline 102, and ISO2200:2005
