Reusable o-ring seal
3MTM 740 Series Filter Cartridges are used in applications with high contaminant reduction requirements. Our high
efficiency, outside-to-inside flow direction with large diameter, pleated media permits high flow rates.
Our 740 series cartridges are used in filter housings that accept 6.5 inch/165 mm outside diameter, 40 inch/1016 m
length filter cartridges with 226 o-ring connections. Polypropylene microfiber forms the basis of the filtration media
we use in the 740 series filter cartridges. Our manufacturing processes allow for tightly controlled specifications
resulting in a filter media with consistent and predictable particle retention characteristics. We offer 740 series
cartridges in micron ratings ranging from 1 to 70 microns (@99.9% Particle Removal Efficiency). Polypropylene
provides broad chemical compatibility for use in a variety of applications.
We produce 740 series cartridges in two configurations - "B" and "K." The "B" versions contain the maximum amou
of filter media surface area for those applications where high contaminant holding capacity is needed. The "K"
versions contain an optimized amount of filter media surface area (60% - 70% of 'B" versions) for those applications
that benefit from a low unit cost filter design. In "B" and "K" versions, the microfiber media is pleated in a compound
radial design that optimizes the usable surface area of the filter cartridges. The 740 series cartridges also incorporat
polypropylene end caps, outer sleeves and cores to protect the pleat structure and provide durability. A double o-ri
seal helps reduce the risk of fluid bypass.
