Puretec CB955 Carbon Block 0.5 Micron 2.5" x 5" Replacement Cartridge

Mobile living environments such as RVs, caravans, or single-tap undersink kits require chemical absorption within a compact physical footprint. This 5 inch cartridge is specified for the reduction of chlorine, bad taste, and odor from local water supplies. It serves as a polishing stage or a primary filter where housing height is limited but chlorine, taste and odour reduction is a critical service requirement.

Performance metrics include a maximum flow rate of 8 L/Min and a precise 0.5 micron nominal filtration rating. The media has a chlorine reduction capacity of 38,283 L, ensuring consistent aesthetic water quality throughout its operational cycle. It maintains mechanical stability under pressure conditions up to 900 kPa, facilitating a uniform fluid path through the bonded carbon matrix.

Design technology utilizes bonded activated carbon provides water treatment with no release of carbon fines. The internal structure is engineered to release no carbon fines into the effluent stream, protecting downstream faucets and valves.

Construction features a standard 2.5" x 5" housing footprint with a maximum liquid temperature rating of 82°C. This temperature tolerance supports usage in varied environmental conditions and diverse plumbing configurations. The unit is WaterMark certified and fits standard 5 inch pressurized housings, providing a barrier against Cryptosporidium and Giardia cysts in space-restricted installations.
