Cartridge filters

Cartridge filters for aquaculture and aquariology

A cartridge filter is a highly efficient filtration system used to remove impurities, particles, and contaminants from water. Commonly used in aquaculture, pool filtration systems, and industrial applications, cartridge filters are designed to offer fine filtration, typically ranging from 1 to 100 microns. They consist of a cylindrical cartridge made from materials like polyester, polypropylene, or pleated paper, which trap suspended solids as water passes through.

Cartridge filters are particularly favored for their high dirt-holding capacity and easy maintenance, requiring fewer backwashing processes compared to other filtration types. They are ideal for applications where high-quality water is essential, such as in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS), swimming pools, and drinking water treatment.

Key Features:

  • Fine filtration: Captures a wide range of particles, from coarse debris to fine particulates.

  • Durability: Made from robust materials for long-lasting performance.

  • Easy maintenance: Replacing or cleaning the cartridge is straightforward, saving time and labor.

  • Versatility: Suitable for various applications like aquaculture, water treatment, and pool filtration.
