PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge: Electroplating Nickel-Chromium-Copper Solution Circulation Filter Tank Liquid Purification Filter Cartridge

Product Introduction

This PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge is a professional liquid purification component custom-engineered for the circulation filter tanks of nickel, chromium and copper electroplating solutions, manufactured with high-purity industrial-grade polypropylene (PP) wire as the core raw material and adopting advanced precision spiral winding technology with adjustable winding density. Tailored to the stringent purification requirements of electroplating production, it is dedicated to efficiently removing insoluble particulate impurities from nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions in circulation filter tanks, acting as a core purification barrier for electroplating solution circulation systems. The all-PP structural design ensures excellent chemical resistance to acid, alkali and various electroplating additives, with no dissolution, no secondary pollution to the electroplating solution, and it can adapt to the continuous circulation and high-frequency filtration working conditions of electroplating tanks. It effectively maintains the cleanliness of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions, avoids impurity-induced plating defects such as pinholes, pits and uneven coating, and ensures the stability and consistency of electroplating production quality, while extending the service life of electroplating solution circulation equipment.

Filtration Precision

The PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge is optimized for the impurity removal demand of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions, with standard filtration precision grades covering 1 μm to 100 μm, and the commonly used specifications of 5 μm, 10 μm, 20 μm and 50 μm for targeted interception of different particle size insoluble impurities in electroplating solutions. Adopting a dense and uniform wire winding process, the filter layer features a highly consistent pore size distribution with strong impurity interception capacity, which can thoroughly remove metal debris, abrasive particles, colloidal precipitates and other insoluble fine and large particles generated during electroplating production from the circulation solution. This precise filtration performance ensures that the electroplating solution entering the plating tank meets the strict cleanliness standard, fundamentally eliminating plating quality problems caused by particulate impurities.

Flux

Benefiting from the optimized spiral wire-wound structure and high-permeability PP raw material, this filter cartridge maintains stable and high-efficiency flux performance under the working condition of electroplating solution circulation filtration, perfectly adapted to the continuous circulation flow demand of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solution filter tanks. Under the standard operating conditions of 25℃ and 0.2MPa inlet pressure, the initial pure water flux of a single cartridge reaches 70-130 L/m²·h, and the actual stable working flux for nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solution purification remains at 50-90 L/m²·h for a long time. The flux attenuation rate is extremely low during continuous circulation use, which can ensure the unobstructed circulation of the electroplating solution system, and avoid the reduction of electroplating production efficiency caused by insufficient filtration flux of the circulation filter tank.

Salt Rejection Rate

As a dedicated liquid purification component for electroplating solution circulation filtration, this PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge is designed for the efficient interception of insoluble particulate impurities in nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions, and does not have the ion separation and rejection function of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membrane components. Its salt rejection rate is 0%, which means it only retains insoluble solid impurities in the electroplating solution while allowing all soluble metal ions (Ni²⁺, Cr⁶⁺/Cr³⁺, Cu²⁺), plating additives and solvent molecules to pass through the filter layer smoothly. This characteristic is fully in line with the core demand of electroplating solution purification, which only needs to remove particulate impurities without changing the ion concentration and component ratio of the electroplating solution, and effectively maintains the chemical stability of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions.

Pressure Drop

The product is specially designed with a low-pressure drop optimization structure for the circulation filtration of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solutions. Under the rated working flux and standard temperature conditions, the initial pressure drop of a single filter cartridge is only 0.01-0.04 MPa, which minimizes the liquid flow resistance in the electroplating solution circulation filter tank and effectively reduces the energy consumption of the circulation pump in the electroplating system. During long-term continuous use, due to the uniform pore size distribution and high impurity-holding capacity of the PP wire-wound filter layer, the pressure drop of the cartridge rises slowly and linearly; the maximum allowable operating pressure drop is 0.15 MPa. When the system pressure drop reaches this value, replacement is recommended in a timely manner to ensure the normal operating pressure of the entire electroplating solution circulation system and avoid the impact of excessive pressure loss on the circulation efficiency and plating production.

Molecular Weight Cutoff (MWCO)

This PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge has a precise molecular weight cutoff range of 80,000 to 300,000 Daltons, which is specially calibrated for the purification demand of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solution circulation filtration. It can effectively intercept macromolecular substances in the electroplating solution such as colloidal precipitates, macromolecular organic impurities, polymer additive agglomerates and metal hydroxide flocs that may cause plating defects. The strict MWCO control ensures that small molecular weight metal ions, plating additives and water molecules pass through the filter layer smoothly while realizing the efficient interception of all harmful macromolecular insoluble impurities, and provides reliable molecular-level purification protection for the nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solution circulation system.

Membrane Thickness

The PP wire-wound filter layer of this cartridge adopts a multi-layer composite spiral winding design with a uniform total effective filter layer thickness of 120-200 μm, and the single PP wire diameter is precisely controlled to ensure the consistency of the filter layer pore size. The inner and outer sides of the filter layer are equipped with high-strength PP mesh protective layers with a thickness of 80-100 μm each, and the inner skeleton is a reinforced industrial-grade PP support structure with high rigidity and chemical resistance. The moderate and uniform filter layer thickness design not only ensures the high filtration precision and sufficient mechanical strength of the filter cartridge, but also effectively resists the liquid flow impact and pressure fluctuation in the electroplating solution circulation filter tank. The chemical-resistant PP raw material and precise winding process ensure that the filter layer has no material shedding and dissolution in the acid-alkali electroplating solution, avoiding secondary pollution to the electroplating solution and meeting the strict purification requirements of electroplating production.

Replacement Cycle

Under the normal operating conditions of nickel-chromium-copper electroplating solution circulation filter tanks (electroplating solution impurity content ≤30 mg/L, 24-hour continuous circulation filtration, regular simple backwashing), the recommended replacement cycle of this PP Wire-Wound Filter Cartridge is 3-5 months. If the electroplating production load is high (impurity content >30 mg/L) or the electroplating solution contains a large amount of metal debris due to workpiece polishing and other processes, the replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened to 1-3 months. In addition, when the pressure drop of the electroplating solution circulation filter tank reaches the maximum allowable value of 0.15 MPa, or the filtration flux decreases significantly and cannot be restored after backwashing, the filter cartridge should be replaced immediately to ensure the purification effect of the electroplating solution and avoid the occurrence of plating defects caused by excessive impurities.
