Puretec GC201-H Heavy Metal Reduction Granular Carbon 20 Micron 2.5" x 10" Replacement Cartridge

Residential environments with aging metal plumbing infrastructure may experience elevated levels of dissolved heavy metals and chemical additives. This specialized 10 inch granular carbon cartridge provides heavy metal reduction and addresses aesthetic contaminants in local water supplies. It is suitable for undersink filtration systems where high-purity water is required for domestic kitchens or food service points.

Hydraulic performance is rated for a maximum flow of 15 L/Min with a 20 micron post-filter rating for sediment and carbon fine extraction. The media utilizes a granular activated carbon bed designed to facilitate maximum contact time between the water and the chemical absorption pathways. It operates reliably under standard pressure conditions, maintaining steady hydraulic velocity through the specialized heavy metal reduction matrix.

Internal design allows water to enter at one end and travel the entire length of the media bed before exiting through a post-filtration layer. This configuration clarifies the water by removing unwanted taste and odors while providing a technical barrier against dissolved heavy metals.

Construction features a standard 2.5" x 10" architectural footprint, ensuring universal compatibility with standard filter housings and bracketry. The housing is manufactured from high-grade materials and includes gaskets made from Buna-N and Santoprene for reliable sealing. Its design prevents the release of carbon particles into the effluent stream, maintaining the clarity and taste of the discharge water in residential distribution points.
