Description
A 50-micron sediment filter is effective for filtering out larger particles and sediments from water. Here's what it typically does:
-
Removes Large Particles: Filters out particles that are 50 microns or larger in size, such as sand, dirt, rust, and sediment.
-
Improves Water Clarity: Reduces turbidity by removing visible particles that can cause cloudiness in water.
-
Protects Downstream Equipment: Helps prevent clogging and damage to plumbing fixtures, appliances, and more sensitive filtration systems downstream.
However, it may not be sufficient for filtering out smaller contaminants like bacteria, viruses, or very fine sediment. For higher purity water or specific filtration needs, a filter with a smaller micron rating would be necessary.
Quality Materials
Pentair Pleated filters are made of resin-impregnated cellulose and polyester media pleated around a polypropylene core for strength. These materials trap suspended particles, block microbes and absorb unwanted chemicals or substances that cause a chemical change to the water, such as acid neutralization.
Benefits:
