Does anyone query by auditor about the filter flow rate before? Mind to share experience?

Hi Carine

A filter would normally have a specified efficiency (% removal and particle size) and a maximum flow rate.

Kind regards,

This depends on your filter and what you are removing.

For foreign objects it is the filter efficiency for removing a specified particle size at a specified maximum flow rate that will be important.
