Cartridge filters are used to remove the solid and other dirt particles from the water. These are the simple and modular filters installed in housing or a case in a RO plant to remove the dirt and even chemicals present in the water.
These filters are composed of many materials. Mostly they are made up of polypropylene because it resists the growth of bacteria. However, they can also be made of wound string, rigid foam, or pleated film. Sometimes, cellulose is also used to make up the cartridge filter.
When the water gets passed through this filter, the solid material gets trapped on the cartridge filter. The filters are placed according to the size of the particles. This means that the filters are rated according to their ratings to remove particles of a specific size. The cartridge filter are mostly in size of 20 micron, 5 micron and at last 1 micron.
The filters work properly when the water passing through them does not contain many solid materials and has a significantly less quantity of chemicals present in it.
The cartridge filters don't have the capability of backwashing themselves. They have to be replaced once they become either dirty or get blocked.
