High flow capacity pleated filter cartridges.
Fulflo® MegaFlow™ cartridges provide a cost effective alternative to wound and other 2 1/2" OD style filter cartridges in high flow applications such as reverse osmosis pre-filtration and similar applications where nominal efficiency is sufficient. Each MegaFlow™ cartridge can handle flow rates up to 175 gpm (662 lpm), significantly reducing the number of cartridges required and the housing size. Each 6" (152 mm) diameter MegaFlow™ cartridge has flow capacity equal to 8 standard 2 1/2" OD x 40" long filter cartridges. Positive o-ring seals and a built in handle make cartridge installation reliable, fast and easy.
MegaFlow™ cartridges are available in either pleated polypropylene or cellulose media with nominal ratings of 0.5, 1, 5 and 10 micron.
Typical applications include potable water, waste water, reverse osmosis pre-filtration, lubricating oil and coolants.
Features & Benefits at a Glance
- high flow capacity means fewer cartridges and reduces labor costs to change
- high flow capacity allows smaller housings and less capital expenditure
- built in handle makes change fast, easy and safe
- o-ring seal assures filtration integrity
- choice of polypropylene or cellulose media allows use in both aqueous and non-aqueous fluid applications
- thermally bonded polypropylene and phenolic resin bonded cellulose filter media prevent particle bleed through and unloading that commonly occurs with wound cartridges
- high surface area pleated design provides lower pressure drop and longer service life than other cartridges
