3M Micro-Klean CS filter cartridges are an improved conventionally wound cartridge. The materials of construction (core and roving) offer broad chemical compatibility and economical filtration. Continuous length winding eliminates the dead spots found on conventionally wound cartridges. A single roving strand employs a strictly controlled material to produce a consistent and high quality cartridge.
Available in Three Materials
3M Micro-Klean CS filter cartridges standard filtering media includes bleached cotton, unbleached cotton, rayon, and polypropylene. The lightweight, low-cost filtering materials offer a high contaminant-holding capacity and ability to remove both solid and viscous particles. The 3M Micro-Klean CS cartridge core is available in a variety of materials to suit a broad range of applications. Core materials include tin plated steel, 304 and 316 stainless steel, and polypropylene, and exhibit the following performance characteristics:
- Polypropylene is an economical and effective core material for most water and corrosives treatments and works in operating temperatures up to 2000 °F.
- Tin Plated Steel works well for oils, solvents, paints, and other non-FDA treatment applications
- 304 Stainless Steel is designed to work with applications that include diluted acids and moderately corrosive fluids
- 316 Stainless Steel is ideal for highly corrosive fluids and strong acids and performs in high temperatures up to 7500 °F
Details of 3M Micro-Klean CS Filter Cartridges
- Improved conventionally wound cartridge eliminates problems of by-pass, restricted flow, and inconsistent micron retention

- A single roving strand of strictly controlled material produces a consistent and high quality cartridge
- Liquid flows through the entire filter structure to help maintain consistent system pressure
Markets
3M Purification, Inc., manufactures the 3M Micro-Klean CS series filters on state-of-the-art precision winding machines. Yarn-wound filter cartridges are simple and versatile. The component materials (core and roving) offer broad chemical compatibility and economical filtration along with high structural stability. Continuous length winding, regardless of cartridge length, eliminates the “dead” spots found on conventionally wound cartridges. A single roving strand of material produces a consistent and high quality cartridge. This also results in more dense winding in the inner layers and coarser winding in outer layers to produce a more efficient filtering performance than previous manufacturing technology offered. Our filter cartridges are made to fit a wide array of industry applications including:
- Chemical
- Electronics
- Food & Beverage
- Oil & Gas
