HF60 High Flow Filter Cartridge for Industrial Security Filtration
HF60 filter is a popular large-flow pleated filter cartridge designed for industrial liquid precision filtration, widely deployed in filter vessels alongside DHFPA-Series Filter Cartridge, serving as an alternative to MP Series High Flow Pleated Cartridges. This HF60 filter adopts gradient pleated polypropylene medium, featuring large effective filtration area, low initial pressure drop and outstanding dirt holding capability. It efficiently captures suspended solids, colloids and fine particulate contaminants to protect reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration membrane elements from abrasion and fouling. With standardized interface dimensions, HF60 filter realizes direct interchange with mainstream industrial filter housings, helping water treatment stations, chemical plants and power enterprises cut spare parts procurement costs and simplify daily maintenance work.

Product Description
HF60 filter is a typical outside-in high flow filter cartridge, developed for high-capacity industrial water treatment and process liquid filtration. The complete filter cartridge consists of reinforced inner and outer support cages, multi-layer gradient pleated filter medium, injection-molded end caps and elastic sealing gaskets. Thermal fusion welding technology is adopted for assembly without extra adhesive, preventing organic dissolution and secondary contamination to fluid.
Multiple filtration precision grades are available for HF60 filter, covering 1μm, 5μm, 10μm and 20μm, which can match different pretreatment standards before membrane systems. It mainly undertakes security filtration tasks, intercepting fine impurities that escape from multi-media filtration and activated carbon filtration. A single HF60 filter delivers much higher flow capacity than conventional 20-inch folded filter cartridges, which reduces the total quantity of filter elements required in the filter housing and optimizes system pipeline layout.
The HF60 filter is widely used in circulating water purification, boiler feed water treatment, industrial wastewater reuse, chemical raw liquid filtration and electronic ultrapure water preparation. It can directly replace many imported large-flow filter elements. Users do not need to transform existing filter vessels, realizing low-cost equipment upgrading for old water treatment projects. Multiple HF60 filters can be arranged in parallel inside large horizontal filters to satisfy continuous high-flow production demands.
Working Principle
HF60 filter operates based on outside-in cross-flow filtration principle. Untreated fluid enters the filter housing and flows toward the outer surface of HF60 filter. Particulate pollutants, sediment and colloids are trapped on the surface and internal layers of pleated medium. Purified fluid penetrates the filter medium and converges inside the inner support core, then flows out as filtrate.
The intensive pleated structure greatly expands the effective filtration area. As intercepted pollutants accumulate continuously, the pressure difference between inlet and outlet will rise gradually. Once differential pressure reaches the preset alarm value, operators need to replace HF60 filter to restore system flow rate. Polypropylene raw material brings excellent chemical compatibility, adapting to neutral aqueous fluid and routine acid & alkali cleaning solutions used for filter housing maintenance. The rigid support cage prevents filter medium deformation under instantaneous water pressure impact, avoiding fluid bypass and guaranteeing stable filtration efficiency throughout the service cycle.

FAQ
Q1: What is the standard size of HF60 filter?
A1: HF60 filter belongs to 40-inch high flow filter cartridge. The actual flow rate is affected by filtration precision and fluid temperature. We can provide flow-pressure test data according to your working conditions.
Q2: Can HF60 filter be cleaned and reused after contamination?
A2: HF60 filter adopts disposable pleated polypropylene medium. Conventional chemical cleaning cannot fully recover flux after severe fouling. It is recommended to replace the filter cartridge when differential pressure exceeds the limit.
Q3: What is the maximum continuous operating temperature for HF60 filter?
A3: Standard polypropylene HF60 filter can continuously work below 60°C. If high-temperature fluid treatment is required, please contact our engineers for alternative material solutions.
Q4: How to choose proper filtration precision for HF60 filter?
A4: 5μm HF60 filter is the mainstream choice for RO membrane security filtration. For coarse pretreatment, select 10μm or 20μm specifications. You can provide water quality reports to obtain professional selection advice.
Q5: Can we customize end cap and sealing forms for HF60 filter?
A5: Yes. We provide customized sealing gaskets and end cap structures to fit different horizontal and vertical filter housings for industrial projects.
