Water can be contaminated by suspended particles like sand, silt, rust, and dirt, which can block filtration systems and reduce efficiency. Sediment filters act as the first line of defense, ensuring clear water and longer-lasting filtration performance. These filters are essential for various water purification systems, from commercial water purifiers to industrial RO systems.
HOW SEDIMENT FILTERS WORK – Sediment filters trap fine particles, preventing them from reaching RO membranes and other filtration stages. They are generally used in cartridge filters for treating the water, helping to maintain consistent flow of water and improve the lifespan of the whole filter purification systems.
Sediment filters are available in various sizes and micron ratings, making them ideal for customized filtration needs.
There are two main types of sediment filters:
PP Yarn Wound Filters are known for their high dust-holding capacity, making them suitable for heavy-duty filtration applications. These cartridges for water purifiers trap fine sediments and ensure water is safe and clear.
PP Melt Blown (Spun) Filters are cost-effective filters. These cartridges are used in water purifiers for clearing water, provide high sediment retention, protecting RO membranes and extending the life of purification systems.
