About Pleated Filter Cartridges 

• Filter cartridges outperform wound, spun, melt blown, resin bonded and other ”depth” type filter elements because our cartridges are pleated to provide increased surface area and longer life. Lower pressure drop is another significant advantage, using Harmsco Hurricane & WaterBetter pleated cartridges, which allows for increased flow rates and the use of smaller filter housings to reduce capital equipment costs. Further savings are provided because our 100% synthetic filter media is cleanable, five micron and up, to lower cartridge replacement costs. 

• Pleated filter cartridges outperform other pleated elements because our high performance filter media is systematically produced using 100% synthetic fibers, with no binders or additives to leave a residue, foam or contaminate. Our filter media is thicker than other products. For this reason,  Premium Hurricane -Free Cartridges

provide high flow capability, lower overall operating cost,  longer filter runs with fewer change outs. 

 Pleated Filters Features 

• Filter media is pleated for greater surface area 

• Synthetic filter media is cellulose-free 

• “Thicker” filter media has a greater capacity to capture and retain particles, compared to thin, more rigid media types, which have less void space for particle retention 

• Increased contanminant removal

• All cartridge types and lengths are individually wrapped

Features to using Filters 

• High flow capability; long life; reduced filtration costs, compared to wound and spun cartridges. 

• No additives or binders, which may cause foaming. 

• Increased dirt holding capacity; longer life; fewer cartridge replacements needed; and reduced filtration costs, compared to other pleated cartridge suppliers 

• Increased particle removal efficiency; longer life; and reduced cost per gallon filtered

Lower pressure drop for higher flow rates 

Filter cartridges are pleated, so initial pressure drop is significantly less compared to depth cartridges, such a wound, spun, melt blown and resin bonded. As a result, higher flow rates are possible, reducing filter housing size requirements to lower capital equipment costs.

Washable & Reusable 

Harmsco pleasted filter cartridges are washable and reusable, five micron and up to reduce filtration costs. For best results, direct spray into pleats to dislodge sediment. Or, let dry and brush off filter cake from surface of the media
