High performance. High efficiency. High confidence.

When it comes to industrial water filtration, speed, capacity and filter life matter. Using filters that have a low dirt-holding capacity and minimal surface area can slow down processes, and lead to reduced productivity and production.

We’ve got the solution you need to feel confident you’re optimizing your system’s filtration: The 3M™ High Flow HFR Series Filter Cartridge, a high-performance, long-lasting and cost-effective filter option that offers absolute-rated particle retention and fits into existing Pall Ultipleat® High Flow Housings.
