The Ultipleat® High Flow Filter is a large diameter, coreless, single open-ended, pleated cartridge with an inside-to-outside flow pattern. Its unique crescent-shaped pleat geometry, along with its large 152.4 mm (6 inch) diameter and proprietary range of available Pall filter media, permits you to use significantly fewer filters and smaller housings for high flow rate applications. Systems can handle up to 115,443 lpm (30,500 gpm).

Features and Benefits:
High flow rate per filter cartridge
These pleated high flow filters are available in the following variants –
Ultipleat® High Flow 1 Micron Element:
With its large 6.3 inch (16 cm) diameter, this filter allows you to use fewer filters to remove fine particles and cysts in high flow applications.
*Particle removal rating
Crescent-Shaped Pleat Geometry
Ultipleat® High Flow Filter Elements (1 µm) for Water Polishing Filtration:
These filter elements make use of polyethersulfone (PES) media with unique, laid-over pleat geometry. The filter's unique laid-over pleat geometry, combined with its large diameter, requires fewer elements for a given flow rate than standard diameter cartridges. Therefore, filter vessels are smaller, resulting in lower capital, installation costs, and reduced operating costs.
Ultipleat® High Flow Filter for Etchant Applications:
This filter is designed for TFT LCD liquid applications like wet etching and cleaning. The filter’s large diameter, inside-out flow path, and unique, high area, and pleated construction provide long service life. The filter is more economical due to its high flow capacity.
Please note that the service life is dependent upon chemical compatibility and temperature.
Ultipleat® High Flow Filter Elements with Profile® UP Media:
These pleated high flow filters are designed to withstand high flow rates up to 113 m3/hour (500 US gal/min) in a single 1524 mm (60 inch) cartridge. By utilizing Profile UP media with unique, laid-over pleat geometry, and a large diameter, fewer elements are required for a given flow rate than standard diameter cartridges. The filters feature a fixed fiber matrix and are free from surfactants and adhesives.
Ultipleat® High Flow XL Filters:
The spacing between the pleats within the Ultipleat XL filter has been optimized to deal with applications with moderate solids loadings.
Pall also offers Ultipleat® High Flow Housings for different applications in various industries.
Pall’s Ultipleat High Flow Filters have a wide range of applications across various industries.

4 Multiply this value by the total system flow to determine the aqueous pressure drop. For fluids other than water, multiply this value by the fluid’s viscosity at the operating temperature in centipoise. This value is the pressure drop across the Ultipleat High Flow filter(s) only; it must be added to the pressure drop contribution from the Ultipleat High Flow filter housing.
