PP Pleated Cartridge

---

Overview

The DropX Pleated Cartridge provides high-efficiency surface filtration with an exceptionally large filtration area for extended service life and stable flow. Constructed from pleated polypropylene or polyester media, it is designed to handle high-volume filtration with low pressure loss. Its cleanable, reusable structure makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring long-term, consistent performance and minimal downtime.

Key Features

The pleated design increases surface area several times compared to depth filters, resulting in longer operating cycles and reduced replacement frequency. The uniform pleat geometry ensures even flow distribution and maximizes particle retention without compromising flow rate. Reinforced end caps and core provide excellent structural strength, while thermally bonded construction eliminates bypass and media migration. Available in multiple micron ratings and lengths, the DropX Pleated Cartridge offers outstanding clarity, efficiency, and value.

Applications

Commonly used in RO and UF pre-filtration, chemical processing, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and beverage production, the DropX Pleated Cartridge excels in high-flow, high-purity applications. It is ideal where frequent filter changes are undesirable and consistent, low-turbidity filtrate is essential.

Specifications

Constructed from pleated polypropylene media supported by a rigid PP core and end caps, the cartridge is available in micron ratings from 0.2 µm to 50 µm and in standard lengths of 10", 20", 30", and 40". The high-surface-area pleated media enables long filtration runs with minimal pressure drop. Operating temperature tolerance is up to 80°C with a clean differential pressure limit of 2.5 bar and burst resistance above 4 bar. Designed for compatibility with DOE and SOE housings, the DropX Pleated Cartridge provides reliable, economical filtration for both industrial and high-purity systems.
