It is amazing how much contamination finds its way into the ink supply. This can lead to quality issues and if the material is metallic or hard (dried water-based ink, blade material, ceramic chips), roll scoring can result. Graymills filters, designed specifically for ink applications, mount inline to prevent contamination from reaching the print deck. A magnet at the inlet of the filter pulls metallic material out of the ink. A 10x-power rare earth magnet is optional for filters and is also available on an adjustable bracket that hangs in the ink container or pan. Surge suppressor models are available for diaphragm and peristaltic pumps.
