White pleated liquid filter cartridges with folded media and protective support cages

Pleated Filter Cartridges.

More surface. A considered choice of media. Explore pleated cartridges for particle removal and fine liquid filtration, built around your process requirements.

Start with the media.

The material is one part of the decision. Explore each direction, then match the construction and configuration to your liquid.

PP Pleated Filter Cartridges

Pleated polypropylene media for particulate filtration and upstream process protection. Explore filtration grades, dimensions and end connections.

More area. A clear path through.

Explore the folded media, follow liquid through the filter pack and into the center channel.

A continuous pleated sheet creates the filtration area.

Liquid path Retained particles
  1. The media folds back and forth around the core, creating a larger filtration area within the cartridge diameter.

  2. Liquid passes from the outside through the folded media. Particle retention depends on the selected medium and its filtration grade.

  3. Filtered liquid passes through the support core into the center channel and continues toward the housing outlet.

Match the media to the liquid.

Construction and surface treatment matter. Compare the selection context, then confirm the exact grade and complete cartridge specification.

Match the media to the liquid.

PP · PolypropylenePleated fibrous media; distinguish the construction from a membrane grade.Particle removal and prefiltration in compatible process liquids.Media construction, rating definition, fluid compatibility and pressure drop.
PES · PolyethersulfoneCommonly supplied as a hydrophilic membrane.Fine filtration of aqueous liquids, subject to the selected grade.Chemical compatibility, adsorption, extractables and cleaning requirements.
PVDF · Polyvinylidene fluorideMembrane grades may be hydrophilic or hydrophobic.Liquid filtration where surface treatment and process chemistry guide selection.Exact membrane grade, wettability, compatibility and operating conditions.
PTFE · PolytetrafluoroethyleneHydrophobic and hydrophilic membrane variants exist.Chemically demanding liquids following a specific compatibility review.Wetting procedure, all wetted materials, fluid chemistry and temperature.
Nylon · PolyamideHydrophilic polyamide membrane; adsorption can influence selection.Compatible water and solvent processes with defined cleanliness needs.Fluid compatibility, adsorption sensitivity, cleanliness and membrane grade.

The details that make it fit.

Prepare a clear specification, from the filtration target to the connection inside your housing.

Retention rating
Define the particle-removal target and compare how the rating is stated and tested, including nominal or absolute terminology.
Dimensions
Confirm overall length, outside diameter and the installation envelope inside your filter housing.
End connections
Match the end-cap format, adapter geometry and locating features to the housing connection.
Seals & wetted materials
Review the gasket, O-rings, core, supports and end caps alongside the filter media for fluid compatibility.
Operating conditions
Share temperature, flow and differential pressure, plus any cleaning or sterilization method and cycle requirements.

Consider the whole process.

Use your application to put the media choice in context, from process chemistry to downstream cleanliness.
