Description
The Pleated Filter 20″ Standard 2.5″ is a high-performance, washable sediment filter designed to remove sand, silt, rust, dirt, and other suspended particles from water. Manufactured from durable pleated polyester media, it provides a significantly larger filtration surface area than conventional sediment cartridges, resulting in higher flow rates, lower pressure drop, and an extended service life.
Unlike disposable sediment filters, the pleated cartridge can be cleaned and reused multiple times, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for residential, commercial, and industrial water filtration systems. It is commonly installed as the first stage of a filtration system to protect carbon filters, reverse osmosis membranes, pumps, valves, and water-using appliances from sediment damage.
