Performance and Features

Filtration Efficiency

  • Nominal Ratings: 0.5μm, 1μm, 5μm, 10μm (90% efficiency).

  • Absolute Ratings: 1μm, 3μm, 5μm, 10μm (99% efficiency for PP media; varies for cellulose).

Flow and Pressure Drop

  • High Flow Capacity: Handles 175 GPM (662 LPM) per cartridge, reducing cartridge count by 8x compared to 2.5-inch cartridges.

  • Low Pressure Drop: Pleated design reduces resistance, extending service life.

Materials Compliance

  • PP Media: Compliant with FDA regulations (21 CFR Title 21) for food and beverage applications.

  • Cellulose Media: Suitable for non-aqueous fluids.


Key Advantages

  1. High Flow Capacity:

    • Reduces cartridge count by 8x, lowering housing size and capital costs.

    • Handles up to 3,325 GPM (12,586 LPM) in horizontal/vertical housings.

  2. Long Service Life:

    • Pleated design increases surface area (55–60 ft²), reducing pressure drop and extending filter life.

    • Thermally bonded media prevents particle bleed-through and unloading.

  3. Low Maintenance:

    • Built-in handle enables fast, safe cartridge replacement.

    • Fewer changeouts reduce labor costs and downtime.

  4. Seal Integrity:

    • Positive O-ring seals ensure no bypass flow.

  5. Versatility:

    • Available in PP (aqueous) or cellulose (non-aqueous) media.

    • Suitable for diverse applications, including reverse osmosis pre-filtration.

Application in Steel Mill Water Treatment

The Replacement Parker High-Flow Filter Element is ideally suited for steel mill water treatment, addressing critical challenges:

  1. Circulating Water Filtration:

    • Removes iron, scale, and particulates from cooling water systems, preventing equipment corrosion and scaling.

    • Ensures consistent water quality for blast furnaces, rolling mills, and other critical processes.

  2. Wastewater Recirculation:

    • Polishes wastewater for reuse in non-contact cooling, reducing freshwater consumption.

    • Removes oils, greases, and suspended solids to meet discharge standards.

  3. Boiler Feed Water:

    • Filters dissolved solids and silica to prevent boiler tube fouling, improving energy efficiency and equipment lifespan.

Key Benefits for Steel Mills:

  • Sustainability: Reduces water intake and wastewater discharge.

  • Cost Savings: Lower freshwater and chemical treatment costs.

  • Process Reliability: Consistent filtration prevents equipment damage and production delays.


Other Industrial Applications

LEFILTER’s Replacement Parker High-Flow Filter Element excels in diverse industries:

  1. Reverse Osmosis (RO) Pre-Filtration: Protects RO systems in water treatment plants.

  2. Lubricating Oil and Coolants: Removes particulates in machinery and metalworking fluids.

  3. Potable Water and Wastewater Treatment: Ensures clean water for municipalities and industrial processes.

  4. Chemical Processing: Filters corrosive fluids and solvents in petrochemical applications.

  5. Food and Beverage: Meets FDA standards for filtration in processing and bottling.


Working Principle

The Replacement Parker High-Flow Filter Element operates through a two-stage process:

  1. Surface Filtration: Larger particles are trapped on the outer layer of the pleated media.

  2. Deep Filtration: Smaller contaminants are captured within the media’s tortuous pores, leveraging the high surface area for extended dirt-holding capacity.

Inside-to-Outside Flow:

  • Fluid enters through the inner core, passes through the media, and exits through the outer cage.

  • Solids are retained within the media, maintaining consistent performance until changeout.


Conclusion

LEFILTER’s Replacement Parker High-Flow Filter Element combines innovation, reliability, and cost efficiency to deliver unmatched performance in high-flow applications. Whether optimizing water treatment in steel mills, safeguarding RO systems, or ensuring clean fluids in food processing, this product offers:
