Pleated filter cartridges are surface filters for removing hard, non-deformable particles from a liquid stream. They feature a large filter area, a high dirt holding capacity and consequently a long filtration lifetime. The sharp cut-off characteristics created by the filter media ensures dependable and highly efficient particle removal at the designated micron rating. Pleated filter cartridges are therefore widely used as particle size classification filters, as well as being utilised as either final filters or as protection for expensive membrane filter cartridges.
The Econopleat series of pleated cartridges consist of 3 layers of filter media, resulting in a high surface area cartridge that performs well with high flow rates, whilst achieving a good dirt holding capacity with no compromise to operational pressure drops.
