01 — The problem

The hidden cost of cartridge filtration in seawater desalination.

In a large SWRO plant, traditional 2.5″ elements quietly drive up every line of the budget.

CAPEX ↑

Hundreds to thousands of 2.5″ elements per plant

LABOR ↑

Monthly change-outs and long downtime windows

OPEX ↑

Short life and high ΔP damage RO membranes

STOCK ↑

Many SKUs — hard to stock and forecast

// Root cause: cartridge selection is still optimized for "small and many" — not for total cost of ownership.

02 — The solution
Max-A High Flow Filter Cartridge

One cartridge does the work of dozens.

A 6″ diameter and multiple in-to-out pleated layers pack up to 8.6 m² of media into a single element — 113 m³/h (500 GPM) of flow, 1–100 µm — with an inner core and outer cage for high mechanical strength.

One Max-A is equivalent to
56 pcs
Melt-blown 40″ φ2.5″ elements
37 pcs
Pleated 40″ φ2.5″ elements
5 pcs
Bag filters, Size #2
Outer diameter 6″ (152 mm)
Lengths 20 / 40 / 60 / 80″
Filtration area up to 8.6 m²
Max flow 113 m³/h · 500 GPM
Nominal 1–100 µm @ 90–95%
Absolute 1–20 µm @ 98–99.9%

03
100% drop-in

Identical dimensions and fit — a true one-for-one replacement for Pall RT-Plate.

04
Lower cost, same performance

Cut your filtration spend while holding filtration quality and flow.

06 — FAQ

Answers for buyers and engineers.

Per-unit price is higher, but total cost falls. One Max-A replaces up to 56 melt-blown elements, with far fewer housings, less labor and less downtime — net procurement and annual OPEX both drop 30–40%.

Yes. The single-handle version is a direct drop-in for genuine Pall RT-Plate cartridges in FRP, GRP and other large-flow housings — no modification needed.

The opposite. Fewer cartridges mean fewer connection points and lower leak risk; the inner core and outer cage give high mechanical strength; low ΔP means smaller pressure swings.

Nominal 1–100 µm at 90–95% or absolute 1–20 µm at 98–99.9%. Media is PP or glass fiber; cage and end caps are polypropylene; gaskets in EPDM, silicone, Buna-N or Viton. Silicone-free, FDA CFR21.

Yes — RO desalination prefiltration, oil & gas, power-generation condensate, petrochemical, food & beverage, pharmaceutical and automotive.
