Mechanical filtration cartridge PX 20“ SL

Product detailed description

Replacement filter cartridge for the removal of mechanical impurities from water. Available in filter cartridge options according to jfiltration fineness 1, 5 or 25 microns.  Suitable for use with 20" SL type filters or with AQ TUBE filter 20“.

The filter cartridge is made of 100% polypropylene and its porosity ensures high resistance to bacteria and viruses. Effective filtration ensures the removal of mechanical impurities from water: sand, soil, clay, hair, and other undissolved particles. 

These filter cartridges are used for deep filtration of mechanical impurities, which means that particles are captured throughout the entire depth of the filter material and not just on the surface of the cartridge. This increases the overall capacity of the cartridge compared to surface filtration.

Unlike standard polypropylene cartridges, these cartridges have a special MELT-BLOWN internal structure (the fiber density increases from the surface of the cartridge to its center). This ensures gradual filtration from the largest to the smallest particles, which improves the quality of the water treatment process and the cartridge itself has a longer lifespan compared to those with a homogeneous structure.
