CFS 0.5 Micron 10x2.5 Depth Sediment Prefilter for SF-MT-0.5-10 - 4 Pack

CFS 0.5 Micron 10x2.5 Depth Sediment Prefilter for SF-MT-0.5-10 - 4 Pack

• Sediment removal at its finest. Scientifically-advanced sediment filters are designed specifically for use in RO and RO/DI units in areas where high sediment is a problem. Enhanced design features graduated sediment removal to trap larger particles near its surface and minute particles in the center. Designed for a longer life cycle and greater particulate holding capacity. Truly purify your aquarium water supply with this filter cartridge.
• GRADED DENSITY DEPTH MEDIA AT 0.5 MICRON – The polypropylene is spun loose on the outside and tight toward the core, so coarse grit is held near the surface and the finest particles are retained deep in the wall. That is what makes a half micron rating practical: the load spreads through the full thickness instead of blinding off one face, so flow holds steady far longer than a surface filter at the same rating.
• CLEARER WATER FROM EVERY SOURCE – Whether your home runs on municipal tap water or a private well, the cartridge captures the sand, silt, dirt and rust that cloud water and wear out fixtures and appliances. Sediment media works on particles only — for taste and odor add a carbon stage, and for certified contaminant reduction look for cartridges tested to NSF/ANSI standards for those claims.
• FITS THESE PART NUMBERS – Direct replacement for SF-MT-0.5-10 at 0.5 micron. It is a standard 2.5 by 10 inch cartridge, so it drops into most aquarium and residential RO and RODI prefilter housings. Note that the string wound version of the same rating is SF-SW-0.5-10 and the pleated alternative is 0.35 micron - different construction, same position. Coarser MicroTec cartridges at 1 and 5 micron fit the same housing but pass larger particles.
• MATCH THE FILTER TO YOUR WATER – Cartridges are maintenance parts, not water treatment plans, and no single one handles everything. Carbon reduces chlorine taste and odor. Sediment media captures sand, silt, dirt and rust. For any specific contaminant you are concerned about, look for a system certified to the NSF/ANSI standard that names it. If you are on a private well, start with a water test.
