PP filter cartridge, also known as melt blown filter cartridge, is a type of filter material made from non-toxic and odorless polypropylene (PP) as raw material. This material has good chemical stability, resistance to mold, acid and alkali, and resistance to organic or inorganic solvents (except for chlorosulfonic acid, concentrated nitric acid, and strong oxidants), thus ensuring its safety.


In terms of drinking water filtration, PP filter cartridges have the following advantages:


Efficient filtration: PP filter element can effectively filter out large impurities such as gravel, soil, rust, etc. in water, ensuring the initial purity of water quality. Its filtration efficiency is stable and can maintain low pressure loss, reducing equipment energy consumption.


Long lifespan and low cost: PP filter cartridges have a relatively long service life and are relatively affordable, making them the preferred filter type for many household water purification equipment.


Wide applicability: PP filter cartridges are not only suitable for filtering household drinking water, but also widely used in various fields such as industrial pure water filtration, pharmaceutical industry, food industry, etc. Their reliability and stability have been widely recognized.


In addition, to ensure the effectiveness of PP filters in drinking water filtration, users need to pay attention to the following points:


Regular replacement: The filtering effect of PP filter cartridge will weaken with the increase of usage time, so it is necessary to replace the filter cartridge regularly to ensure the filtering effect. It is generally recommended to replace the filter element every 3-6 months based on water quality and usage conditions.


Choose the appropriate size: PP filter cartridges come in different sizes and specifications, and you need to choose the appropriate size according to the requirements of the filter pot or water purifier you are using. Using an inappropriate size may result in the filter cartridge not being installed properly or the filtration effect being poor.


Keep dry: PP filter cartridges will absorb moisture during use. If left in a humid environment for a long time, it may breed bacteria and mold, affecting the service life and filtration effect of the filter cartridge. Therefore, when replacing the filter element, it is recommended to air dry it before use and pay attention to the dry environment during storage.


Above, PP filter can be safely and effectively used for drinking water filtration, providing users with clean and healthy drinking water.
