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

    Pentair PENTAIR Fibredyne Carbon Block 5µm 20" for Big Blue

    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.Key Product Features Outstanding sediment reduction ensures less plugging, meaning the CFB-Plus achieves its full chlorine reduction capacity 100% more chlorine, taste and odour reduction than original carbon blocks Unique post filtration layer, fused to carbon/fibre media prevents carbon fines being released into the effluent stream Tested and certified by NSF International to ANSI/NSF Standard 42 Manufactured entirely from FDA compliant materials Part Numbers: CFB-PLUS-10, CFB-PLUS-20, CFB-PLUS-30, CFB-PLUS-10BB, CFB-PLUS-20BB
