How to do water treatment? UMECO® introduce you a professional water treatment knowledge, the distinction and application analysis between these three sorts of filter cartridges.
PP melt-blown filter
PP melt-blown filter is a filter medium made from non-toxic and tasteless PP particles by heating & melting, spraying, towing and shaping. It has pore-uniformed, deep filtering structure, and with high filtering efficiency, acid and base resisted characteristics. It can effectively remove suspended matters, particles and rusts in liquids.
If it is made from PP particle which is called PP melt-blown filter, of course, there are some other materials for selection, PP melt-blown filter is largely not only used in water purification, but also in other chemical industry thanks for its excellent chemical compatibility, e.g.: strong acid, strong base and organic solvent filtration.

String-Wound Filter
String-wound filter is a deep filtration elements for low viscosity, low impurities liquid filtration, it is made from textile fiber line, mainly polypropylene and cotton wool line, by twining it on PP or SS inner core. It can effectively remove suspended matters, particles and rusts in liquids.

Classical Application
- Pre-filtration of industry water, municipal tap water and water for food and beverage industry.
- Pre-filtration of developer, etch solution, plating solution and organic solvent.
- Cooling circulating water, boiler water supply, ultra-pure water secondary filtration.
Pleated Filtered Elements
PP pleated filter cartridge is made from extra-fine PP fiber membrane, with its stable filter rating, high dirt-hold capacity, large effective filtering area, it can remove micron particles and gel matters, its filtering effectiveness can be as high as 99.8%. for other filtering purpose, the material for making pleated filter cartridge for selection can be: stainless steel screen, sintered screen, PTFE, PES, Nylon, etc.
Regular Technical Data
| OD | 69mm |
| ID | 28mm |
| Length | 5-40 inch |
| Filter Media | PP |
| Skeleton | PP |
| Removal Rating | 0.1-50 micron |
| End Caps | DOE 222 226 215 |
| PH Value | 1~13 |

| Max. Working Differential | 0.01Mpa / 0.06 Mpa (forward and reverse) |
Classical Application
- Acid-base liquid clarification filtration.
- Photoresist, developer final filtration.
- Ink, painting, printing ink, adhesive final filtration.
Melt-blown filters use layered PP fibers for gradient particle removal, ideal for deep filtration. String-wound filters, crafted from wound fibers, excel in high-flow industrial pre-filtration. Pleated filter cartridges maximize its surface filtering area so as to offering superior dirt-holding capacity for precision applications in water treatment field. In this article we will go through what they and how they perform in various industries.
