High flow water filter is a cylindrical large-flow precision filter cartridge specially developed for industrial water treatment. As the core pretreatment barrier of ultrafiltration system, it has been widely adopted in water purification, wastewater reuse and desalination industries. Raw water sourced from groundwater, surface water and recycled production wastewater contains silt, rust particles, fine fibers and organic colloids. Without effective interception by high flow water filter, these tiny contaminants will continuously scour and block ultrafiltration membrane pores, causing irreversible membrane fouling, shortening membrane service life and increasing the frequency of chemical cleaning. For this reason, high flow water filter has become standard supporting consumable for almost all industrial ultrafiltration projects.
Raw water firstly removes bulky sediment and hard particulate impurities through upstream liquid filter, and then enters high flow water filter to capture micro pollutants that threaten the safe operation of ultrafiltration membranes. We supply multiple filter products suitable for different ultrafiltration working conditions:
For large-scale ultrapure water ultrafiltration pretreatment projects: select High Flow Filter Element
For seawater desalination and circulating water ultrafiltration systems: adopt 60" PP High Flow Water Filter for Industrial Ultrafiltration Systems
For municipal reclaimed water reuse ultrafiltration stations: use Pleated High Flow Filter Cartridge for Ultrafiltration Water Treatment
For chemical wastewater and weakly corrosive water medium treatment: deploy Premium High Flow Water Filter Element for Industrial Liquid Filtration
The complete structure of high flow water filter consists of pleated filter media, internal reinforced support skeleton, upper and lower end caps and sealing rings. Common raw materials include polypropylene, glass fiber and PTFE, with filtration precision ranging from 1μm to 50μm. The mainstream connection modes are 226 fin interface and flat open end cap, compatible with most stainless steel filter housings on the market. All finished high flow water filters pass bubble point test and hydraulic pressure inspection before delivery to ensure stable coordinated operation with ultrafiltration equipment. Our factory supports stock supply of standard specifications and customized production for non-standard ultrafiltration systems.
The whole water purification workflow forms three-level progressive filtration: liquid filter coarse filtration → high flow water filter precision filtration → ultrafiltration membrane deep separation. The high flow water filter traps contaminants of different particle sizes through physical interception, inertial deposition and adsorption of multi-layer filter media.
After preliminary coarse filtration by front liquid filter, raw water flows into filter housing and permeates inward from outer filter layer to the central water collecting pipe of high flow water filter. Large impurities are intercepted on the outer filter layer, and tiny colloids and organic particles are captured inside filter media. Purified water converges in the central pipeline and steadily flows into ultrafiltration equipment to remove bacteria, macromolecular organics and residual ultrafine suspended substances. Optimized pleated structure effectively improves dirt holding capacity and maintains low system pressure drop under long-term continuous high-flow operation, avoiding insufficient water supply during continuous water production of ultrafiltration units.
Pollutants will gradually accumulate on filter media during long-time operation, leading to continuous rise of inlet and outlet differential pressure. When pressure difference reaches the warning value of 0.25MPa, operators need to replace high flow water filter timely. Clogged filters will increase water pump load, reduce ultrafiltration water yield and accelerate membrane contamination.
Water treated by high flow water filter can be used as backwashing water source of ultrafiltration membrane modules. Mixed with compressed air to form gas-water cleaning medium, it can thoroughly wash pollutants attached to ultrafiltration membrane surface, effectively slow down membrane fouling and extend the chemical cleaning cycle of ultrafiltration equipment.

Q1: What protective functions can high flow water filter provide for ultrafiltration equipment?
A: It effectively intercepts various impurities in raw water, reduces pollutant load on ultrafiltration membranes, slows down fouling speed, extends membrane service life and lowers shutdown maintenance frequency of ultrafiltration production lines.
Q2: Can you customize high flow water filter to fit our existing ultrafiltration system?
A: Yes. Our technical team adjusts filter length, outer diameter and interface according to on-site water quality, system flow and filter housing parameters to achieve perfect matching with your ultrafiltration equipment.
Q3: What is the regular replacement cycle of high flow water filter?
A: Under stable clean water quality, the replacement cycle is 1–3 months. If raw water turbidity remains high, differential pressure rises rapidly and service life will be shortened significantly.
Q4: Why install liquid filter upstream of high flow water filter in ultrafiltration pretreatment pipeline?
A: The front liquid filter traps gravel, rust blocks and large hard impurities, preventing sharp particles from scratching filter media, delaying filter clogging, and forming dual protection for downstream ultrafiltration membranes.
Q5: Which factors lead to premature blockage of high flow water filter?
A: Excessive impurity concentration of inlet water, failure of upstream liquid filter, long-term overload flow operation and improper selection of filtration precision will cause rapid differential pressure growth and early clogging.
Q6: Can multiple high flow water filters operate in parallel to supply water for large industrial ultrafiltration units?
A: Definitely yes. Multiple filters can be installed in parallel inside large filter housing, supplying stable large-flow qualified water for heavy-duty ultrafiltration equipment, widely used in municipal reuse water and industrial water treatment projects.
