Engineered with a unique fur-like surface texture, this Deep PP Filter Cartridge is designed for maximum dirt-holding capacity. The dense, fibrous outer layer acts as a deep-bed filter, effectively trapping fine sediments and gelatinous impurities that can challenge standard melt-blown cartridges. It is the ideal solution for filtering turbid or variable quality water.
Exceptional Dirt Loading: The fibrous, fur-like surface creates a vast network of paths for capturing and retaining large volumes of sediment, silt, and organic matter, significantly extending service cycles.
Superior Depth Filtration: Unlike surface filters, it allows particles to penetrate deeply into the media, utilizing the entire cross-section for contaminant removal and preventing rapid surface blinding.
Handles Gelatinous Contaminants: The dense fiber matrix is particularly effective at filtering out slimy or viscous particles that can easily pass through smoother surfaces.
Ideal for Variable Water Quality: Performs consistently well even with fluctuating influent turbidity, providing reliable protection for downstream equipment.

Install as normal. Due to its high dirt capacity, monitor pressure drop closely. A gradual increase is normal. Replace when the differential pressure reaches 0.28 MPa or flow rate becomes unacceptable.
Q: How often should I replace the melt blown cartridge?
A: Typically every 3–6 months, depending on water quality and usage. A noticeable drop in water pressure indicates it's time for replacement.
Q: Can this cartridge be used with hot water?
A: No, it is designed for cold water applications only. Maximum operating temperature is 60°C.
Q: Does it remove chemicals or bacteria?
A: No, it is designed for sediment removal only. For chemical or microbial removal, use with activated carbon or UV systems.
