Micron Rating: 5 micron (nominal)
Size: 10" Standard (Std) (10" × 2.5")
Media: Carbon block
Filter Type: Carbon block cartridge
Function: Fine sediment filtration and chlorine, taste, and odour reduction

-
Typical replacement interval: Every 3–6 months, depending on water quality, chlorine levels, and water usage.
Replace sooner if:
Chlorine taste or odour returns.
Water flow decreases noticeably.
The cartridge becomes heavily clogged.
Carbon block media cannot be washed or regenerated. Replace the cartridge once its filtration capacity is exhausted.
Best Used With
A 20 micron or 5 micron sediment pre-filter where water contains heavy sediment to extend the life of the carbon block cartridge.
As part of a multi-stage filtration system for improved water quality and longer cartridge life.
Not Suitable For
Bacteria or virus removal.
Water softening or hardness reduction.
Dissolved contaminants that are not effectively reduced by activated carbon.
Heavy sediment loads without a suitable sediment pre-filter.
