Loading:
The data above shows typical loading capacities of the different
micron rated filters. Loading capacity is determined by challenging a filter with
a dispersion of silica test dust in water at the recommended flow rate. Pressure
drop is monitored and testing is terminated at 50 psid (3.4 bar). (742B is
terminated at 35 psid– 2.4 bar.) The loading capacity reported is the dry weight
gain of the cartridge.

Efficiency:
The 3M™ High Flow Filter Cartridges are rated using a silica test
challenge in water at 30 gpm (6.8 cu m/hr). The results reported are typical
initial efficiencies taken within ten minutes of the start of the test. For more
information on how 3M conducts its filter efficiency testing, please contact
