1. Product Introduction of High flow filter
The high‑flow filter is a pleated large‑flux filter cartridge installed in stainless‑steel filter housing, undertaking the first‑stage fine‑filtration pretreatment for industrial ultrafiltration water‑purification, circulating‑water recycling, sewage disposal and process‑water treatment systems.
Common industrial raw water, circulating cooling water, factory wastewater and process water carry sediment, metal particles, grease sludge, polymer colloids and residual tiny impurities. Without the interception of the high‑flow filter, hard fine particles will scratch the surface of expensive ultrafiltration membranes, cause serious membrane fouling, raise chemical‑cleaning frequency and greatly shorten the service cycle of ultrafiltration‑membrane assemblies. Our high‑flow filter adopts multi‑layer composite folded filter material, featuring huge dirt‑holding capacity, stable big‑flux throughput and outstanding acid‑alkali resistance, far better than ordinary small‑flow common‑type filter cartridges.
Industrial raw‑water firstly removes large‑grained sediment, rust chunks and bulky waste through the upstream liquid filter. After preliminary coarse filtration, water flows into the filter housing and gets deep purification by our high‑flow filter. Multiple interchangeable cartridge options are prepared for diverse working‑conditions:
‑ Standard‑type industrial ultrafiltration safety filtration:AQUALINE ALN01‑60B High Flow Pleated Water Cartridge Filter
‑ Import‑model filter‑element replacement:EQUIVALENT ALN01‑60B High Flow Pleated Water Filter Cartridge
‑ Steam‑plant condensed‑water recycling system:Condensed Water Filter Element for Industrial Ultrafiltration
‑ Seawater and high‑salinity water treatment projects:Dow Membrane Filters Type SW30HRLE‑400 High Flow Cartridge
Our high‑flow filter is assembled with multi‑layer pleated filter cloth, rigid plastic inner supporting skeleton, impact‑resistant injection‑molded end‑caps and corrosion‑resistant EPDM sealing rings. Two mainstream installation specifications, the 226‑fin bayonet and flat open‑end cap, fit most international‑standard large‑flow filter housings. Every finished‑product needs to pass bubble‑point inspection, air‑tightness detection and acid‑alkali soaking test before delivery. Our factory provides bulk‑order supply and non‑standard customization according to on‑site water‑quality condition and ultrafiltration‑system operating‑parameters.

2. Working Principle: Collaborative Filtration With Ultrafiltration Equipment
The full water‑purification workflow adopts three‑level progressive filtration: liquid‑filter coarse filtration → high‑flow‑filter fine physical screening → ultrafiltration‑membrane deep separation. The folded filter medium captures different‑sized particulate pollutants by physical sieving, inertial sedimentation and surface adsorption.
2.1 Long‑time Stable Large‑flux Operation
After coarse‑impurity removal of the upstream liquid filter, raw water flows inward from the outer folded layer of the high‑flow filter. Large‑size sediment and suspended debris are intercepted on the outer surface, fine colloids and tiny particles are blocked by multi‑layer dense filter cloth, and purified water flows toward the central water‑collecting pipeline and enters the ultrafiltration‑membrane module.
Ultrafiltration membranes will further intercept macromolecular organic matter, bacteria and micro‑fine pollutants. Benefiting from the expanded folded filtering area, the high‑flow filter keeps stable low pressure‑drop under long‑time high‑speed water flow, offering steady feed‑water for non‑stop industrial ultrafiltration‑water‑treatment equipment.
2.2 Differential‑pressure Reminder for Cartridge Replacement
Suspended pollutants keep accumulating on the folded filter‑layer during continuous operation and lift the inlet‑outlet pressure‑difference. Operators need to replace the high‑flow filter once pressure‑difference hits the warning threshold of 0.25 MPa. Blocked cartridges will increase pump operating‑load, reduce ultrafiltration water‑yield and accelerate abrasive contamination on ultrafiltration‑membrane surfaces.
2.3 Matching Operation for Ultrafiltration Back‑washing System
Water treated by the high‑flow filter works as the back‑flushing water source for ultrafiltration‑membrane assemblies. After mixing with compressed air, gas‑water mixed liquid washes away pollutants stuck on the membrane surface, slow down fouling and extend the chemical‑cleaning cycle of industrial ultrafiltration machinery.

FAQ
Q1: What advantages can the high‑flow filter bring to industrial ultrafiltration‑membrane equipment?
A: It owns huge effective filtering area and excellent dirt‑holding capacity, intercepts most suspended particles, oil sludge and colloidal pollutants inside raw water, slow down ultrafiltration‑membrane fouling, cut chemical‑cleaning frequency and extend membrane working‑life.
Q2: Can you customize the high‑flow filter to match my existing ultrafiltration‑water‑treatment system?
A: Yes. Our technical staff adjust cartridge length, filtering precision, filter‑medium material and end‑cap structure according to on‑site water‑quality, pipeline flow and filter‑housing parameters.
Q3: What is the standard replacement cycle of the high‑flow filter?
A: The service cycle lasts 1‑3 months under stable low‑pollution inlet‑water. Heavy‑polluted sewage, oily water and seawater will speed‑up cartridge clogging and shorten service life.
Q4: Why install a liquid filter on the upstream pipeline of the high‑flow filter?
A: The upstream liquid filter intercepts large sediment, rust blocks and hard coarse particles, prevent hard impurities from scratching the folded filter cloth, delay clogging and achieve dual‑stage protection for downstream ultrafiltration‑membranes.
Q5: Which factors will lead to early‑time blockage for the high‑flow filter?
A: Excessive pollutant concentration of inlet‑water, upstream liquid‑filter failure, long‑time over‑rated‑flow running and improperly‑selected filter‑medium material will trigger fast pressure‑difference rise and premature cartridge clogging.
Q6: Can multiple high‑flow filters adopt parallel installation on large‑scale industrial ultrafiltration‑machines?
A: Parallel installation is fully supported. Multiple cartridges work together in large‑size filter housings and provide stable large‑flux pretreated water for heavy‑duty industrial ultrafiltration‑water‑treatment equipment.
