{"product_id":"puretec-px-series-polyspun-sediment-cartridge","title":"Puretec PX Series Polyspun Sediment Cartridge","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Puretec PX series is a graded density polyspun sediment cartridge made from virgin polypropylene with no centre core. Graded density means the outside of the cartridge is coarser than the inside, so the whole depth of the material loads up with dirt rather than just the surface blinding over. It is the low cost sediment cartridge and the one most systems run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich micron?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e20 micron\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e50 micron\u003c\/strong\u003e as a first stage on dirty tank, creek or bore water, catching grit and sand. \u003cstrong\u003e5 micron\u003c\/strong\u003e is the general purpose choice and what most whole house systems run, taking out silt, rust and fine sediment. \u003cstrong\u003e1 micron\u003c\/strong\u003e is a polishing stage that goes after something coarser, or ahead of a UV steriliser, since UV only works in clear water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSmaller is not better.\u003c\/strong\u003e Fitting 1 micron as your only cartridge on tank water means it blocks fast, pressure falls off and you replace it far more often than you should. Two stages, coarse then fine, costs less to run and holds pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolyspun is not washable. When it is loaded, it gets replaced. If you want something you can rinse and reuse, look at the PL pleated range instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich size?\u003c\/strong\u003e Slimline is the standard 2.5 inch diameter cartridge. Jumbo, which Puretec calls MaxiPlus, is 4.5 inch and takes far more flow and far more dirt before it blocks, which is why whole house systems use it. The 10 inch and 20 inch measurement is the length. Your housing decides this, not your preference, so measure the old cartridge or read the housing label before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Puretec cartridges.
