3. Product Features

1. High Dirt-Holding Capacity:

• Utilizes tapered-pore media (e.g., HDC® II, Profile®) to trap particles efficiently without rapid clogging.

• Achieves Beta 5000 (99.98%) efficiency in removing contaminants ≥1 micron.

2. Coreless Construction:

• Reduces disposal volume by 75% compared to traditional depth filters.

• No metallic components, enabling safe incineration or recycling.

3. Uniform Flow Distribution:

• Crescent-shaped pleats and helical wrap ensure even fluid distribution, preventing media collapse and bypass.

4. Chemical Compatibility:

• Resistant to acids, alkalis, hydrocarbons, and solvents, suitable for aggressive industrial fluids.

5. Modular Design:

• Compatible with horizontal or vertical housings (ASME-certified), supporting flow rates up to 15,140 lpm (4,000 gpm).

4. Product Advantages

• Lower Operating Costs:

• 30% fewer filter changeouts vs. bag or pleated filters, minimizing downtime.

• Reduced energy consumption due to low differential pressure (≤0.3 bar at 500 gpm).

• Extended Service Life:

• Automated backwashing compatibility extends membrane lifespan to 12–18 months.

• Environmental Compliance:

• Meets ISO 14001 standards with recyclable materials and reduced waste generation.

• Versatility:

• Available in multiple micron ratings (1–70 µm) and media types for tailored filtration.

5. Working Principle

The Replacement Pall High-Flow Filter Element operates through a multi-layered filtration process:

1. Pre-Treatment:

• Incoming fluid passes through sand or activated carbon filters to remove large particulates.

2. Primary Filtration:

• Fluid enters the filter element’s coreless structure, flowing from the inside out.

• Contaminants are trapped within the pleated media, while purified fluid exits through the outer drainage layer.

3. Pleat Optimization:

• Crescent-shaped pleats maintain uniform flow channels, preventing premature clogging and maximizing media utilization.

4. Backwashing/CIP:

• Automated reverse flushing removes accumulated solids, restoring flux without disassembly.

6. Application in Textile Industry

In textile manufacturing, the Replacement Pall High-Flow Filter Element ensures consistent quality in critical processes:

1. Dye and Chemical Filtration:

• Removes undissolved pigments, lint, and impurities from dye baths, preventing fabric discoloration.

2. Process Water Purification:

• Filters suspended solids and organic matter from water used in washing and finishing, reducing fabric contamination.

3. Wastewater Recycling:

• Treats effluent to meet discharge standards, recovering up to 90% of water for reuse.

4. Spin Finish Oils:

• Clears particulates from lubricants applied to synthetic fibers, ensuring smooth spinning operations.

Case Study:
A textile plant in Jiangsu, China, reduced dye waste by 35% and extended filter service life by 50% after switching to these filters, achieving annual savings of $28,000.
