Note: Filter housing selection should also be considered when flow rate per cartridge is determined.
Lower pressure drop for higher flow rates
These cartridges are pleated, so initial pressure drop is sig-
nificantly less compared to depth cartridges, such as wound,
spun, melt blown and resin bonded. As a result, higher flow
rates are possible, reducing filter housing size requirements to
lower capital equipment costs.

Washable & reusable
Our cartridges (5 micron and
up) are washable and reus-
able, to reduce filtration costs.
For best results, direct spray
into pleats to dislodge sedi-
ment. Or, let dry and brush
off filter cake from surface of
the media.
All cartridges
are individually
shrink wrapped
for purity
