pressure loss is the pressure drop between the inlet and outlet of the element due to the hydraulic resistance at a given flow.

What does pressure loss mean in practice?

The difference increases with flow and contamination, and its value includes the insert, bed, valves and narrowings of the tested section.

When does it matter?

High loss limits available flow and may prevent proper backwashing or powering of equipment downstream of the filter.

Which solutions are related to it?

Measurement is installed before and after the step, a larger surface is selected and the element is serviced after reaching the set threshold.
