Versatile Filtration ApplicationsThe PP Pleated Filter Cartridge meets the demanding filtration requirements of sectors like RO water plants, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, electronics, and chemical processing. Its compatibility with a range of fluids makes it a versatile and reliable solution for numerous industrial and commercial environments.
Robust Construction and MaterialsEngineered with polypropylene for the filter media, end caps, core, and cage, the cartridge ensures chemical resistance and structural integrity. The pleated, thermal bonded design maximizes surface area, filter life, and contaminant retention efficiency without compromising flow or pressure.
Flexible Options and StandardsAvailable in multiple lengths (10"40") and micron ratings (0.150 micron), the cartridge adapts to specific filtration needs. It features EPDM, Silicone, or Viton O-rings, DOE or SOE end connections, and complies with FDA CFR Title 21 and ISO manufacturing practices, ensuring broad compatibility and regulatory acceptance.
FAQs of PP PLEATED FILTER CARTRIDGE:
Q: How is the PP pleated filter cartridge used in industrial filtration processes?
A: The PP pleated filter cartridge is installed in filtration housings, where it removes suspended solids and contaminants from liquids, protecting downstream equipment and processes. It is particularly effective as a pre-filter in RO systems and in critical applications such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, and electronics manufacturing.
Q: What are the benefits of the pleated design in this filter cartridge?
A: The pleated structure provides significantly increased surface area compared to non-pleated filters, resulting in higher dirt holding capacity, lower initial pressure drop, longer operational life, and greater filtration efficiency, especially in high-demand environments.
Q: When should I replace the PP pleated filter cartridge?
A: Replacement intervals depend on the application, feed water quality, and the selected micron rating. Typically, replacement is recommended when the pressure drop across the filter reaches the maximum differential pressure of 3.5 bar at 25C, or as scheduled by the operational maintenance routine.
Q: What micron sizes are available for this filter, and how do I choose the right one?
A: Micron ratings range from 0.1 to 50 micron (0.1, 0.22, 0.45, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50). Selection depends on the level of particulate removal required in your specific application. For example, finer micron ratings are suitable for ultra-pure water and electronics, while larger ones fit general pre-filtration needs.
Q: Where can the PP pleated filter cartridge be sourced in India?
A: These cartridges are available through multiple channels, including dealers, distributors, manufacturers, suppliers, exporters, wholesalers, retailers, and fabricators across India. Custom packaging and specifications may also be requested based on project requirements.
Q: What is the installation process for the PP pleated filter cartridge?
A: The cartridge is inserted into compatible filter housings, utilizing either DOE (Double Open End) or SOE (O-ring end) connections. Care should be taken to select the correct gasket or O-ring material (EPDM, Silicone, Viton) for the applications chemical compatibility and sealing requirements.
Q: What are the cleaning and disposal recommendations for these cartridges?
A: The PP pleated filter cartridge is designed to be non-washable and disposable. Once the filter reaches its maximum dirt holding capacity or differential pressure limit, it should be safely removed and properly disposed of according to company or local environmental guidelines.
