High efficiency pleated filter cartridges
Flow-Max HP series filter cartridges are cost
effective, disposable, filter elements for a wide
range of applications. Flow-Max HP cartridges
are constructed of highly efficient pleated
polypropylene filter media with extended filter
area to provide high flow rates, low pressure
drop and increased dirt holding capacity.

Relative performance data were developed using laboratory tests,
which may be used for guidelines in cartridge selection. The
single-pass test method was used with particle counters and 3
GPM flow per 10” cartridge. Results vary, and actual field tests
may be necessary to determine final cartridge selection.
