Water filter cartridge USTM PP 10" 5 micron — sediment replacement element

USTM PP 10" 5 micron is a polypropylene sediment filter cartridge for mechanical water purification. The 10-inch cartridge removes particles down to 5 microns, protecting downstream equipment and subsequent filtration stages from sand, silt and deposits. It fits standard housings that accept 10" PP elements and is suitable for residential and light commercial pre-filtration.

Advantages

The polypropylene PP5 construction provides reliable removal of insoluble contaminants and suspended solids with a filtration rating of up to 5 microns. The element is compatible with many common 10" filter housings, allowing straightforward replacement. Typical service life is up to 14,000 litres or up to 6 months under normal conditions, with a recommended maximum flow rate of 25 l/min for best performance.

Suitable for

• Whole-house pre-filtration systems
• Under-sink and point-of-use filters
• Low-pressure water installations
• Protecting downstream equipment and finer filtration stages

How to use

Install the cartridge into a compatible 10" filter housing following the housing manufacturer’s instructions. Shut off the water supply, relieve pressure, remove the housing cover, and replace the old element with the USTM PP 10" 5 micron cartridge. Reassemble the housing, open the supply, and check for leaks. Flush the new cartridge for a short period until water runs clear before regular use.

Usage recommendations

Replace the cartridge every 6 months or when throughput reaches approximately 14,000 litres, or sooner if flow rate or water clarity deteriorates. Use in housings rated for the element size and maintain upstream pre-filters as needed to extend service life.
