Puretec PX055 Polyspun Sediment 5 Micron 2.5" x 5" Water Filter Cartridge

Operating on cold-water supply networks, the compact Puretec PX055 sediment removal cartridge isolates solid particles like sand, silt, and clay. Suitable for standard inline cold-water filter housings, this model performs physical pre-filtration in space-restricted setups. Its installation is straightforward, connecting with standard plumbing lines to intercept suspended solids.

Regarding materials of construction, this cartridge is manufactured from raw virgin polypropylene with melted synthetic fibers. The polyspun media utilizes a coreless construction with no center core to restrict fluid velocity. The cartridge weighs approximately 0.15 kg and is specified for fluid temperatures from 4.4°C to 60°C.

This compact cartridge measures 2.5 inches in diameter by 5 inches in length. It features a nominal rating of 5 microns for physical particulate separation. The unit achieves a maximum flow rate of 14 L/Min with low flow resistance, providing filtration on cold-water setups.

Depth filtration is performed by the graded density structure, which allows larger particulates to be captured on the outer layers and finer ones near the core. This multi-layered layout provides a high dirt-holding capacity. Due to its pure polypropylene fibers, the cartridge is compatible with various liquid chemicals.

• Spun polypropylene construction utilizing synthetic fibers melted simultaneously for media longevity.
• Coreless depth filtration configuration utilizes a graded density design to collect solid particles.
• Specifically designed for standard water filter housings compatible with 2.5" x 5" replacement units.
• Filters suspended sand, silt, rust, and clay, serving as a primary inline physical pre-filter.
• Nominal filtration rating specified at 5 Micron to capture raw water particulates in cold-water lines.
• Operates at maximum flow capacity of 14 L/Min, providing liquid filtration with minimal flow loss.
• Withstands water temperatures up to 60°C (140°F), making the cartridge suitable for bore water supplies.
