The 3M High Flow Filter System
The 3M™ High Flow Filter System is an advanced design that uses 3M innovation
and 3M Purification’s extensive filtration experience to deliver a high flow filter in
a compact housing design. When compared to conventional cartridge systems, this
system provides the following advantages:
High flow capability
The construction of 3M High Flow filter systems permits flow rates of up to 1884 lpm
in a single cartridge. The result? Fewer filter elements to accommodate your flow
requirements. In fact, the 3M High Flow filter systems require as few as one-tenth the
number of elements as competitive 2.5” (63,5 mm) pleated cartridges (see Figure 1).
Compact design
Applications
Industrial
• Municipal water, RO prefiltration, reclaimed
water, coolants, nozzle protection, boiler
condensate
Chemical
• Quench water, aqueous salt solutions, final
products
Petrochemicals
• Waterflooding, produced water, enhanced
oil recovery, completion fluids, amine
sweetening, final products
Using fewer elements combined with an outside-to-in flow path enables a reduction
in the size of housing required for your application. The 3M High Flow filter housing
takes up as little as one-half the size of competitive housings for a given flow rate. The
result is lower capital investment costs and a compact footprint that saves valuable
plant space (see Figure 1).
Ease of Use
The 3M High Flow filter system is designed with ease-of-use in mind. From a userfriendly, ergonomically designed handle that makes cartridge installation and removal
easier without the use of special tools or other hardware, to a “twist-to-lock” cartridge
seating mechanism that provides a positive seal, the 3M High Flow filter system
facilitates easy operation and maintenance of your filter system.

3M High Flow filters are designed using state-of-the-art technology, optimising both
performance and effluent quality to provide customer satisfaction. The elements use a
pleat design that results in a high usable filtering surface area per filter.
3M™ High Flow
Filtration System
Radial pleat design
3M innovation is at the heart of the 3M High Flow filter. A compound radial pleat
design helps maximise the usable surface area per filter. Blown microfibre forms
the basis of the filter media, which is made to tightly controlled fibre diameter
specifications to produce a media with absolute rated particle retention characteristics.
Our 3M Purification manufacturing process embosses the media to produce a more
uniform pleat pattern, which, in turn, allows greater utilisation of the media by evenly
distributing the fluid throughout the entire filter structure. This results in consistent
particle retention in a compact, space-saving design.
Design features
The 3M High Flow filter contains several features to combine high performance with
easy operation.
Ergonomically designed handle facilitates fast and
easy insertion and removal without use of special
tools. Twist to lock seating mechanism provides
positive seal.

• An ergonomically designed handle has been designed to facilitate fast and easy
insertion and removal without the use of special tools. Cartridges are simply
inserted over a built-in guide tube.

Filter comparison
Consider the following benefits of the 3M High Flow filter system over competitive
2.5” (63,5 mm diameter) cartridges in a 1325 lpm and a 7571 lpm system* (see figure
1).
• The 3M High Flow filter system requires 90% fewer cartridges as competitive
2.5” (63,5 mm diameter) cartridge systems for a given flow rate.
• 3M High Flow housings are 33% to 50% smaller than competitively sized
housings for a given flow rate.
• Fewer filters and a user-friendly housing design means faster change-outs than
competitively sized systems.
* Comparison assumes fluid viscosity of 1 cP
