Highlights
  • Proprietary diamond pleat design optimizes usable surface area of the cartridge to maximize filter life
  • Highest flow rate among 3M large format filters allows for operational flexibility to maintain process flow requirements
  • Ergonomic horizontal design with a twist-to-lock handle allows for faster and easier cartridge installation and removal
  • High flow capability enables fewer cartridges, which results in reduced cartridge handling and disposal, reduced filter change-out time and less individual cartridge seal points to help achieve sustainability goals
  • Outside-to-inside flow construction allows for compact housing design
  • Absolute-rated polypropylene filter provides consistent performance, effluent quality and broad chemical compatibility
  • Extensive food contact compliance* *For details related to specific use conditions or limitations for food contact applications, please contact your 3M Representative for more information

3M™ High Flow Series HF and HFM Filter Cartridges offer high efficiency and outside-to-inside flow for food and beverage, industrial water and oil and gas applications. Each cartridge has an ergonomic design and a pleat style that provides a large surface area for a long life with a reduced number of change-outs and labor savings for your application.

Each grade of the 3M™ High Flow Series Filters systems is manufactured in polypropylene material. The blown microfiber (BMF) media provides high particle reduction efficiency and a broad chemical compatibility. No adhesives, binders, or silicone are used in the manufacturing process. O-rings are available in a variety of materials to suit your applications.

The maximum design flow through the High Flow HF and HFM cartridges is 85 gpm for 10 inch length, 350 gpm for 40 inch length and 500 gpm for 60 inch length filter cartridges. Results will vary depending on process conditions. Ratings from 0.5 to 70 micron absolute or 5 micron nominal are available. The maximum forward differential pressure is 50psid at 68°F (3.4 bar at 20°C) and the recommended change-out pressure is 35psid at 68°F (2.4 bar at 20°C).

Work with your local distributor to find the right high flow filter housing for your industrial filtration needs.
