Carbon Cartridges

The primary functions of activated carbon are the removal of chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chlorinated hydrocarbons and organic impurities whilst acting as a mechanical filter for particulate reduction due to the cartridge construction.

Standard applications, although carbon is used for many bespoke purposes, are numerous and as the adsorption capabilities and capacities are explored further, the employment of activated carbon is increasing.

Commonly Used To Reduce: Chlorine, Chloramine, Organics, Taste and odour, Heavy metals and Colour

Aquafilter AICRO-L4-AQ In-line Granular activated carbon cartridge with KDF® media

ACC-3 cartridges are designed such that where water flows from bottom to top ensures a long contact time, allowing for maximum adsorption and treatment. KDF utilizing redox reactions, kills or inhibits bacteria growth, converts chlorine to chlorides and removes iron, hydrogen sulphide and heavy metals (lead, arsenic, etc.). Used in combination with activated carbon, KDF can significantly extend the life of filter cartridges. Non-woven polypropylene creates a barrier that prevents filtration media from being washed out. Aquafilter offers AICRO-L4 In-line Granular activated carbon cartridges (AICRO-4-QM and AICRO-L4) with KDF® media suitable for POU (Point of Use) installations. Through its accurate combination of granular activated carbon (GAC) and KDF® media. AICRO-L4 cartridges reduce the concentration of chlorine, VOC’s, hydrogen sulphide, heavy metals such as, iron, copper, lead, mercury and arsenic.. AICRO-L4 series improves the taste and odour of your drinking water and KDF® media extends the service life of your cartridge, providing a continuous supply of fresh and clean drinking water.

Pentair Pentair FloPlus Carbon Filter 0.5 micron 10" Large Diameter

Carbon cartridges made with Fibredyne™ technology are far more advanced than traditional carbon block cartridges. Benefits of higher flow rates, lower pressure drops, higher treatment capacity and less susceptibility to premature blocking from sediment make them the leading carbon cartridges on the market.The fibres (coated in powdered activated carbon) have a very large surface area to offer increased capacity, more flow paths to allow for increased flow and reduced pressure drop and also create areas where sediment can be trapped.The construction methods used to manufacture Fibredyne™ cartridges allow for a variety of constituents to be incorporated that solve specific application problems. Lead and other heavy metals removal can be targeted, Cryptosporidium and Giardia cysts removed and developments that produce no fines or Sulphur release is a particular benefit in electroplating applications. Fibredyne™ technology also enables the use of moulded Santoprene gaskets, meaning no glues are used and the risk of end-caps being left in the housing during cartridge change is vastly reduced..Features & Benefits Reduces particles as small as 0.5 micron in size by mechanical means NSF/ANSI Standard 53 certified to reduce cysts such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia by mechanical means Premium dirt-holding capacity Outstanding chlorine taste & odour reduction True depth filtration High flow rates and low pressure drop similar to a nominal 10-micron cartridge Maximum life - dirt-holding ability of a 10-micron carbon block with the particulate efficiency of a 0.5-micron cartridge Specifications Filter Media – Bonded PAC Endcaps – Polypropylene Netting – Polyethylene Gaskets – Santoprene Temperature Rating – 40-180°F (4.4-82.2°C)
