Product Description
Pentair Pentek P1 Sediment Water Filter, 10-Inch Spun-Bonded Polypropylene Cartridge, 10" x 2.5", 1 Micron, Under Sink Replacement, NSF Certified
- KEEPS YOUR WATER CLEANER - Reduces fine dirt, sand, silt, rust, and scale particles from residential, commercial, and municipal drinking water, helping protect your appliances, plumbing, and downstream filters.
- TRUE GRADIENT DENSITY - Pure 100% polypropylene fibers are spun together to form a true gradient density from the outer to inner surface, capturing coarse particles outside and finer particles within.
- NSF CERTIFIED MATERIALS - Tested and Certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for material requirements; coreless fibers are sintered into a solid matrix and will not impart taste, odor, or color.
- FITS 10-INCH STANDARD HOUSINGS - Maximum dimensions of 2.38" x 9.88" let this cartridge replace any 10" x 2.5" sediment filter in standard under-sink and reverse osmosis housings.
- LOW PRESSURE DROP - Just 0.6 psi at 5 gpm with a 40 to 145 degrees F temperature range; replace when you notice a drop in water pressure or water quality.
This Pentek P1 spun polypropylene filter cartridge reduces sand, silt, scale, and rust particles in residential, commercial, and municipal drinking water. It has a nominal filtration rating of 1 micron at an efficiency of 85%. The filter is made of spun polypropylene fibers for resistance to chemicals and bacteria. It has an initial pressure drop of 0.6 pound per square inch (psi) at a flow rate of 5 gallons per minute (gpm), and operates over a temperature range of 40 to 145 degrees F (4.4 to 62.8 degrees C). This spun polypropylene filter cartridge meets National Sanitation Foundation/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) standard 42 for quality assurance, and is used for treatment of residential, commercial, and municipal drinking water.

Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by means of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They are made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems typically consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to remove different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that is blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum flow rate, and the amount of water that can be filtered before the filter must be replaced. Water filters are used in a wide range of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.
Pentair manufactures industrial, commercial, and residential water filtration components and systems. The company, founded in 1966 and headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards 9001 and 14001 for quality assurance.
