String Wound Sediment Filters: How Do They Work?
String wound filter cartridges have multiple layers of string wound tightly around a support core in diamond shaped patterns to prevent breakage of short fibers. As liquid passes through the cartridge, the woven layers of string on the outer diameter filter out bigger sediment particles (those greater than or equal to the micron rating). Smaller particles (those less than the micron rating) are then filtered out by the layers near the polypropylene core at the center of the cartridge. uid.Benefits of String Wound Cartridges for Your Filtering Application
Rosedale string wound filter cartridges are made with a highly innovative single core design to eliminate the “joints” common in other manufacturers’ elements at 10” intervals. Compared to standard elements, wound filter cartridges offer several added benefits, such as:- True depth filtration
- Higher efficiency
- Extended service life
- Lower pressure drop
- Greater solids holding capacity
