What do we need for a good high flow filter?

There are several factors tightly connected to the performance of high flow filters. Before choosing a high flow filter for your industry, you need to consider all these factors.

Materials

The raw materials of the filter cartridge are key to its quality and performance of it. When an unqualified material is used, generally the filter cartridge has a shorter service time and bad filtration performance.

Design

Only by adopting an appropriate and reasonable design for filter cartridge, the filter cartridge can perform perfectly. Unless uneven filtration or ineffective filtration might be caused.

Larger filtration surface

It can be reached by using a pleated or multi-layer structure. A large filtration area can obviously improve filtration efficiency and prolong the lifespan of high flow filter cartridges.

Below is the test analysis we have done for one of our customers. We hope the info will let you know more about what exactly a good high flow filtration is.
