Global Filter Product Categories
Pleated Depth Cartridges
Pleated depth cartridges combine high dirt-holding capacity with excellent filtration efficiency. These filters are commonly used as pre-filters or polishing filters in applications where particulate removal is critical.
Pleated Membrane Cartridges
Membrane cartridges are designed for critical filtration applications requiring high purity and absolute-rated performance.
High Flow Cartridges
High-flow cartridges reduce the number of filter elements required while maintaining excellent flow rates and low differential pressure.
Depth Filter Cartridges
Depth cartridges provide economical particulate removal and are ideal for applications with heavier contaminant loads.
Filter Vessels & Housings
Global Filter offers cartridge and bag vessel solutions designed for industrial, sanitary, and high-purity applications.
Product Selection Guide
Choosing the correct filter depends on several factors:
Contaminant Type
Consider whether the process requires removal of:
- Sediment
- Particulates
- Microorganisms
- Process contaminants
- Product impurities
Micron Rating
The required filtration level will influence product selection and overall system performance.
Flow Rate Requirements
Higher flow applications may benefit from high-flow cartridge designs or bag filtration systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What industries use Global Filter products?
Global Filter products are used in food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotechnology, water treatment, chemical processing, microelectronics, paints and coatings, and other industrial applications. Their filtration solutions help remove contaminants, protect equipment, and improve product quality.
What is the difference between pleated depth and membrane cartridges?
Pleated depth cartridges are designed for particulate removal and prefiltration, offering high dirt-holding capacity and long service life. Membrane cartridges provide finer filtration and are typically used for final filtration, high-purity applications, and microbial reduction.
Which Global Filter products are recommended for food and beverage applications?
Pleated depth cartridges are commonly used for beverage clarification and ingredient filtration, while membrane cartridges are often used for bottled water, final product filtration, and other applications requiring higher purity levels. The best solution depends on your specific process and filtration requirements.
How do I select the correct micron rating?
The right micron rating depends on the size of the contaminants you need to remove and your process requirements. Higher micron ratings are typically used for coarse filtration, while lower micron ratings provide finer filtration. Our filtration specialists can help determine the best option for your application.
