Yes - a 5 micron will filter out much smaller particles than a 30 micron.
A 5 Micron because it is smaller than the 30 Micron. Thanks! I'm not a professional plumber, but I am a college graduate, and it seems to me that 5-micron openings would not restrict water flow more that 30-micron openings as long as there are at least 36 times as many of them, so I would think that it depends not only on the particulate size for which the filter is rated but also on the filter's surface area and density (please let me know if I am wrong). -HW
It should.

1 micron = 3.93700787 × 10-5 inches
1 micron = 3.93700787 × 10-5 inches
A 5 Micron is more fine then a 20 Micron, It means, if a particle has a thickness of 1 micron. only 5 numbers of particle can be passed through a 5 Micron filter at a time while 20 numbers of Particle can be passed through a 20 Micron filters. the 5 Micron is more efferent to the 20 Micron.

5 microns is less than 10 microns so a 5 micron filter removes smaller particles.
It should.
1 micron is smaller
It depends on what you want to use it for!
They can be used to filter water so that rust and dust and dirt do not contaminate downstream (drinking water, industrial or commercial processing, etc)

3 microns is larger
I was gonna say 4.8 microns, but I thought that would be too obvious.
