Grooved Melted-Spray Sediment Filters
The Sediment filter is usually the first stage in a water filtration system. It serves to remove visible dirt particles such as mud, rust, and sand from the water.
A Melted-spray filter cartridge has a multi-layer structure and is self-bonded, thus not making use of a chemical binder.
The "Grooved" Melted Spray filters have a larger surface area compared to the standard type melted Spray cartridges typically used in the water filtration industry. This larger surface area results in higher flow rate capacity, as well as a slightly high life span for the filter.
The Grooved Melted Spray Sediment Filters are available in 1, 5, 10, & 20 microns.
Features:
• 100% pure, chemical-free virgin polypropylene
• Specially designed to remove rust, dirt, particles and impurities as small as 1 micron
• 3X longer filter life for reduced waste and lower environmental impact
• Available in a full range of sizes and micron ratings
• Fully recyclable
• Prefilter for domestic or commercial water filter systems and reverse osmosis
• Standalone point-of-entry or point-of-use sediment filtration
• Up to 80% more surface area compared to the standard Melted Spray sediment filter
• Increased dirt-holding capacity
• Extended service life and reduced maintenance costs
After passing through this filter, the water may appear to be clean. However, looks can be deceiving and most water contaminants are smaller than what our eyes can see. These contaminants may not be removable by the sole use of a sediment filter.
Sediment filters are rated by a micron number. A micron is a unit of length that is equal to one millionth (10-6) of a meter. The most common sediment filters available are 1, 5, 10, and 20um (micron) filters. The micron number refers to the largest dirt particle that will pass through the filter.
To put this in perspective, look at the sizes of the following objects:
- Eye of a needle ……………………………………….1230 micron
- Dot (.)…………………………………………………………615 micron
- Table salt……………………………………………………100 micron
- Human Hair (average diameter)………………….60 micron
- White Blood Cell…………………………………………..25 micron
- Red Blood Cell………………………………………………..8 micron
- Spider Web………………………………………………...2 - 3 micron
- Bacteria (harmful)……………………………………0.3 - 2 micron
With a nominal sediment filter, 60 – 98% of all the particles larger than the specified filter micron number are removed.
