HFU640GF005H13 Replacement Filter Cartridge | Reliable Pall Compatible Filter Cartridge for High Flow Filtration Systems
MemKway HFU640GF005H13 replacement filter cartridge is designed as a compatible alternative for selected Pall Ultipleat High Flow filtration systems. It features a 0.5 μm glass fiber filtration grade in a 40-inch high-flow cartridge configuration for applications requiring finer particulate removal than standard polypropylene-media HFU options.
The glass fiber media configuration makes this model suitable for selected process-water, condensate, high-purity water and industrial liquid filtration duties where fine particle control is required. Final compatibility should be confirmed using the complete OEM part number, filtration requirement and seal configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A1: HFU640GF005H13 replacement filter uses a 0.5 μm filtration grade with glass fiber media for fine particulate removal in industrial liquid filtration applications.
A2: HFU640GF005H13 uses a finer 0.5 μm filtration grade, while HFU640GF010H13 uses a coarser rating. Both belong to the 40-inch GF-media replacement family but serve different particle-removal requirements.
A3: The main difference is the filter media. HFU640GF005H13 uses glass fiber media, while HFU640UY models typically use polypropylene media. The appropriate choice depends on the required filtration performance and process conditions.
A4: The HFU640GF005H13 replacement cartridge uses glass fiber filter media with polypropylene support components. The final construction should be confirmed according to the required application and seal configuration.
A5: This model is suitable for selected fine-filtration applications such as process water, high-purity water pretreatment, condensate filtration and other industrial liquid filtration duties where 0.5 μm glass fiber filtration is appropriate.
