Polypropylene Filter Cartridges
3M™ High Flow Series
Filtration Systems
Features such as an ergonomically designed handle and a unique “twist-to-lock” seating
mechanism facilitate easy operation and maintenance of the filter system. The system is
particularly suit able for many OEM applications.
Materials Of Construction
Each grade of the 3M™ High Flow Series Filter is manufactured from meltblown FDA
compliant polypropylene microber media, providing high particle reduction efciency
with broad chemical compatibility.
No adhesives, binders, surfactants, or lubricants are used in the manufacturing process.
Operating Conditions
The 10” 3M High Flow series filter system is
ideally suited for applications where convenience
and ease of use are priorities. The system uses 3M
Innovation and 3M Purification Inc.'s extensive
filtration experience to enable flow rates up to 85
gpm in a single cartridge. The Compound Radial
Pleat design packs significantly higher usable
surface areas per unit volume than can be achieved
with conventional pleated cartridge filters.
Features & Benefits
High flow capability of up to 85
gpm per cartridge

Radial Pleat design
Compact design
• Reduced filter usage - minimizes product loss,
labor, disposal costs, operator exposure, and
downtime for filter change-out
• High loading capacity for long life and
lower cost filtration
• Smaller housing minimizes capital expense requirements
• Reduces system footprint
