5 Micron Polyethylene Membrane Filter Element, 2.5 Inch OD, 40 PSI, 30 GPM Flow Rate
Product Spotlights
As a trusted manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory proudly presents the 5 Micron Polyethylene Membrane Filter Element with a 2.5 Inch outer diameter, rated for 40 PSI and delivering a 30 GPM flow rate. This filter element is engineered to provide reliable and efficient filtration for a wide range of liquid applications, combining high dirt-holding capacity with low pressure drop. Our decades of experience in wire mesh and filtration products ensure that every element meets stringent quality standards, making it a preferred choice for industrial and commercial water treatment systems.
The filter element features a uniform polyethylene membrane structure that captures particles as small as 5 microns, effectively removing sediment, rust, sand, and other suspended solids from water. Its robust design withstands continuous operation at up to 40 PSI, while the 30 GPM flow rate ensures high throughput without compromising filtration efficiency. Whether used in pre-filtration, process water, or irrigation systems, this element delivers consistent performance and long service life.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Filtration Precision: 5 micron nominal rating ensures effective removal of fine particles, protecting downstream equipment and improving water clarity.
- Durable Polyethylene Membrane: Chemical-resistant and non-toxic material suitable for potable water and many industrial fluids.
- High Flow Capacity: 30 GPM flow rate at 40 PSI ensures minimal pressure drop and efficient system operation.

Detailed Product Description
The 5 Micron Polyethylene Membrane Filter Element is designed using advanced melt-blown or spun-bond technology to create a graded density structure. This means the outer layers capture larger particles, while the inner layers trap finer contaminants, maximizing dirt-holding capacity and extending service life. The polyethylene material is inherently hydrophobic, making it highly effective for water-based fluids, and it resists degradation from common chemicals like chlorine, acids, and alkalis within normal operating conditions.
Each filter element undergoes strict quality control checks, including pressure testing and flow verification, to ensure consistent performance. The 2.5-inch outer diameter is a standard size that fits most commercial and industrial filter housings, such as those used in reverse osmosis pre-treatment, well water filtration, and cooling tower systems. With a 30 GPM flow rate, this element is suitable for medium to high-flow applications, reducing the number of elements needed per system.
Installation is straightforward: simply insert the element into the housing, ensuring a proper seal. The element can be used with both flat and O-ring end caps, depending on your housing configuration. For optimal performance, we recommend replacing the element when the pressure drop across the filter reaches 10-15 PSI above the initial clean pressure drop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the main material of this filter element?
A: The filter element is made of polyethylene membrane, which is chemically resistant and suitable for potable water and many industrial fluids.
Q2: Can this filter element be used for high-temperature applications?
A: The maximum operating temperature is 140°F (60°C). For higher temperatures, please consult our technical team for alternative materials.
Q3: What is the typical lifespan of this filter element?
A: Lifespan depends on the feed water quality and flow rate. Under normal conditions, it can last from 3 to 6 months before replacement is needed. We recommend monitoring pressure drop.
Q4: Does this filter element remove bacteria or viruses?
A: No, 5 micron filtration is not sufficient for removing bacteria or viruses. It is designed for sediment and particulate removal. For microbial reduction, please use a finer micron rating or UV treatment.
Q5: What end cap options are available?
A: Standard options include flat ends and double open ends (DOE). Custom end caps, such as O-ring or gasket seals, are available upon request.
Q6: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer samples for evaluation. Please contact our sales team with your shipping details and requirements.
Q7: Is this filter element compatible with all standard 2.5-inch housings?
A: It is compatible with most standard 2.5-inch OD filter housings, but we recommend verifying the housing dimensions and end cap type to ensure a proper fit.
Q8: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our MOQ is typically 100 pieces, but smaller quantities are available for sample orders. Please inquire for specific requirements.
