Summary
Product identification
LOFPLEAT™ HF-G High Flow Capacity Glasfiber Filter Cartridges are designed with pleated microglasfiber media. They offer high total surface area, allowing a single cartridge to replace several standard elements, leading to quicker and easier change-outs. The unique inside-out flow design contributes to higher debris holding capacity.
Features and Benefits
- Higher flow capacity reduces required number of cartridges
- Lower initial costs with smaller vessel
- Less labor required for changeouts
- Available with absolute rated media at 1 to 20 µm retention levels
- Inside-out flow for greater dirt holding capacity
- Capable of flow rates up to 1,892.5 l/min in a single 60” length
- Can be retrofitted in most competitive high-flow housings
- Thermally bonded construction

Filter Removal Efficiency
The cartridges provide the following removal efficiencies based on Beta Ratio:
- Beta 1000: 99.90% efficiency
- Beta 100: 99% efficiency
- Beta 10: 90% efficiency
Corresponding micron ratings for these Beta Ratios are:
- 1 µm: Beta 1000 (1), Beta 100 (0.6), Beta 10 (0.2)
- 2.5 µm: Beta 1000 (3), Beta 100 (2), Beta 10 (1.5)
- 4.5 µm: Beta 1000 (5), Beta 100 (4), Beta 10 (3)
- 10 µm: Beta 1000 (10), Beta 100 (8.5), Beta 10 (6.5)
- 20 µm: Beta 1000 (22), Beta 100 (19), Beta 10 (14)
Element Pressure Drop
A table providing Element Pressure Drop in mbar/m³/h and psid/gpm for various lengths and micron ratings is available. See the official PDF for exact tabulated values.
