Puretec PL100MP1 Pleated Sediment MaxiPlus 100 Micron 4.5" x 10" Water Filter Cartridge

Operating as an initial wide-format screening filter, the Puretec PL100MP1 cartridge captures coarse sand, rust scale, and algae clumps. This model is engineered for high-turbidity water sources, providing high flow capacity. It is suitable for MaxiPlus filter housings and is suitable for initial borehole water cleanup.

The core element consists of high-strength non-woven polyester fabric sheets folded into multiple wide pleat layers. This pleated polyester media is braced by an internal polypropylene core that provides structural stiffness. The end caps are formed by embedding the media ends in thermo-setting vinyl plastisol PVC, creating a leak-free seal.

The physical dimensions of this model are 4.5 inches in diameter by 10 inches in length, featuring a nominal rating of 100 microns. It incorporates more than 16 square feet (1.48 square meters) of active filter media to trap incoming particles. The structural overlap seam is sonically welded, which blocks internal water bypass and increases the physical capture efficiency.

The unit operates at a maximum flow rate of 110 L/Min, keeping clean pressure drop low during service. It is rated for liquid temperatures from 4.4°C to 51.7°C (40°F to 125°F). Featuring washable polyester fabric, this model utilizes a reusable configuration, allowing physical cleaning between filtration runs.

Features
