    • Filter Type: Pleated Sediment Cartridge

    • Media: Pleated polypropylene

    • Size: 10" Big Blue (10" x 4.5")

    • Micron Rating: 5 micron

    • Function: Sediment, dirt, rust, sand, silt, and suspended solids reduction

    • Temperature Range: 4°C to 45°C

    • Maximum Operating Pressure: 125 psi (862 kPa)

    • Housing Compatibility: Standard 10" Big Blue filter housings

  • Typical replacement interval: Every 6–12 months, depending on water quality, sediment levels, and water usage.

    Replace sooner if:

    • Water flow decreases noticeably.

    • Pressure drop increases across the filter.

    • The cartridge becomes heavily clogged or discoloured.

    • Sediment begins passing through the filtration system.

    • Filtration performance declines.

    Pleated polypropylene media may be rinsed and reused in some non-potable applications. Replace the cartridge when the media is damaged, permanently blocked, or no longer provides effective sediment reduction.

    Best Used With

    • A 20 micron or 50 micron sediment pre-filter for high sediment water sources to extend cartridge life.

    • Activated carbon filters for chlorine, taste, and odour reduction.

    • As part of a multi-stage filtration system for improved water quality and protection of downstream equipment.

    Not Suitable For

    • Chlorine, taste, or odour reduction.

    • Bacteria or virus removal.

    • Water softening or hardness reduction.

    • Dissolved chemical contaminant removal.

    • Heavy sediment loads without suitable pre-filtration.
