Save up to 30% on the total cost of filtration* with the 3M™ High Flow Series Filter Cartridge, 0.5 µm.
*Compared to traditional 2.5” diameter filter cartridges
Removing particles as small as 0.5 µm during the prefilter process can pay big dividends down the line – like up to 30% filtration cost savings *
*Compared to traditional 2.5” diameter filter cartridges.
The higher quality of your source water after prefiltration, the better your whole process will be – especially the consistency and quality of your final products.
High flow filtration does some of the upstream heavy lifting (microbial or micro-particle reduction) so your more expensive downstream membrane filters last longer.
When your filters last longer, they require fewer change-outs, which reduces downtime and saves on labor costs. Plus, this filter can do the work of multiple traditional filters, meaning less waste going into landfills.
All of which mean the new 0.5 µm High Flow filter can provide excellent downstream membrane filter protection.

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.
3M™ High Flow Series Filter Cartridge
3M™ High Flow Series HF and HFM Filter Cartridges provide high flow capability in an outside-to-inside flow path that allows for small housing sizes and reduces the number of cartridges needed for your application, resulting in lower labour costs and a more sustainable solution. With a single open-end design and fewer individual cartridge seal points than 2.5 inch filters, these filter cartridges also help to reduce the chance of fluid bypass.
Designed to accommodate high flow rates for industrial applications, 3M™ High Flow Series Filters require fewer filters to maintain your process flow requirements.
Our proprietary diamond pleat design provides large surface area to help maximise filter loading capacity for a long filter life and a reduced number of required change-outs.
3M High Flow Series Filters feature a horizontal ergonomic design in the 40 and 60 inch versions.
Featuring a twist-to lock mechanism, filter change-outs are quick and easy and do not require any special tools or hardware for installation or removal.
These high flow filter cartridges offer great particulate removal and surface filtration for a variety of industrial applications.
Featuring a thick media, these high flow filters are designed to filter deformables and organics. They also help prevent premature blinding of the filter’s outer surface, promoting fuller utilisation of the media for an optimal combination of particle removal efficiency and contaminant holding capability.
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 1 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.
