Pleated Depth Cartridge Filters 

When the range of particulate contamination is better understood and narrower in range then pleated depth cartridge filters are used because of their pleated filter media. This offers far better flow characteristics than similar sized depth cartridge filters, reducing initial capital cost or reducing running costs by signficantly extending the cartridge service life.

Acting as a prefilter, pleated depth cartridge filters perform an important role by protecting follow-on membrane technologies - microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis - so their efficacy and service life can be maximised.
