Parker Filters MFNP050‑40N‑ITT ITT‑End‑Cap High Flow Pleated Filter Cartridge
Parker MFNP050‑40N‑ITT belongs to the Fulflo Mega‑Flow high‑flow cartridge family, featuring special ITT‑style end‑cap interface, 5‑micron nominal rating and 40‑inch length, specially engineered for dedicated ITT‑interface filter housings in heavy‑duty industrial pretreatment and RO membrane protection. Its 6‑inch large‑diameter pleated construction delivers outstanding single‑element throughput and high dirt‑holding capacity for high‑volume process water treatment. Many water‑treatment engineers select POV12UNPFA replacement filter cartridge and HF20‑S‑3M large‑flow filter element to match with MFNP050‑40N‑ITT, completing multi‑stage pre‑filtration chains and lowering SDI value for downstream membrane systems.

Product Description
Parker MFNP050‑40N‑ITT is a specialized high‑flow pleated filter cartridge from the Parker Fulflo Mega‑Flow product line. Distinguished from universal flat‑cap MFNP050‑40N model, this variant adopts exclusive ITT‑configuration end‑cap, which is designed to fit filter housings with special internal ITT interface structure and cannot be interchanged with ordinary flat‑end‑cap cartridges. With 6‑inch (152 mm) outer diameter, 40‑inch overall length and 5‑μm nominal filtration precision, this cartridge serves as critical consumable for large‑flow raw‑water purification, process‑liquid clarification and RO security pre‑filtration in multiple industrial sectors.
The whole cartridge adopts full polypropylene material system: multi‑layer gradient pleated polypropylene filter media, reinforced PP inner‑outer support cages, glass‑fiber‑filled polypropylene ITT‑structure end‑cap and integrated lifting handle. Thermal‑fusion hot‑melt welding is applied throughout manufacturing without adhesive glue, eliminating risks of glue dissolution, fiber shedding and secondary fluid contamination. Buna‑N nitrile O‑ring provides stable sealing performance matching ITT‑housing inner structure, effectively preventing unfiltered liquid bypass. The built‑in lifting handle supports tool‑free quick disassembly and installation, reducing on‑site maintenance labor and system downtimeParkerGB.
Maximum continuous operating temperature reaches 82°C, with reliable chemical compatibility for neutral aqueous solutions, weak acid and weak‑alkali process fluids. The large pleated area brings excellent dirt‑holding performance under continuous heavy‑duty running conditions. It is widely deployed for power plant condensate water treatment, petrochemical process water, food‑beverage raw‑water pretreatment and ultrapure‑water pre‑filtration for electronics factories. End‑users should strictly confirm housing ITT‑interface requirement before ordering; universal flat‑cap cartridges cannot be installed in ITT‑type filter housings.
Working Principle
Parker MFNP050‑40N‑ITT high‑flow filter cartridge works on proven outside‑in depth filtration principle. Driven by system pressure, raw water or industrial process liquid flows into ITT‑type filter housing and contacts the outer pleated surface of the cartridge. Multi‑layer gradient‑pore polypropylene media completes graded impurity interception: coarse sediment and large flocs are trapped on outer coarse‑pore layer, while fine suspended solids and colloidal particles are captured by inner fine‑pore media layers.
Gradient‑pleated structure maximizes dirt‑holding volume and slows differential‑pressure rising speed. After step‑by‑step purification, liquid converges through inner support core and flows steadily to downstream RO, UF and other precision separation equipment. Reinforced inner‑outer support cages strengthen structural rigidity to resist high‑speed water‑flow impact and avoid filter media collapse or liquid bypass. When inlet‑outlet differential pressure rises to 25‑30 PSID alarm threshold, operators need to replace the cartridge timely to restore rated flow rate and filtration efficiency of the whole pretreatment systemParkerGB.

FAQ
Q1: What is the main difference between MFNP050‑40N‑ITT and MFNP050‑40N?
A1: MFNP050‑40N‑ITT adopts special ITT‑structure end‑cap, only fits ITT‑interface filter housings; MFNP050‑40N is universal flat‑cap version for ordinary Mega‑Flow housings. Two types cannot cross‑install with each other.
Q2: What are the key specifications of Parker MFNP050‑40N‑ITT?
A2: Nominal precision 5 μm, length 40‑inch, outer diameter 6‑inch, ITT dedicated end‑cap, media polypropylene, seal Buna‑N, max continuous working temperature 82°C, outside‑in filtration direction.
Q3: When should MFNP050‑40N‑ITT filter cartridge be replaced?
A3: Replace when inlet‑outlet differential pressure reaches 25‑30 PSID or obvious flow‑rate attenuation occurs. Periodic replacement according to on‑site raw‑water quality is also recommended.
Q4: Can MFNP050‑40N‑ITT be cleaned and reused?
A4: It belongs to disposable polypropylene pleated filter consumable. After colloids and fine particles block internal pores, cleaning cannot fully restore filtration performance; direct replacement is advised after pressure‑drop alarm.
Q5: What shall be confirmed before purchasing MFNP050‑40N‑ITT?
A5: Confirm the filter housing is ITT‑interface type, verify working fluid temperature and chemical property matching PP material and Buna‑N seal, confirm raw‑water SDI to judge whether 5‑μm precision meets pretreatment requirement.
