The 20-Inch Polypropylene (PP) Sediment Cartridge<\/b> is the industry standard for primary water purification. Specifically engineered to handle the sediment-heavy water often found in Sri Lankan municipal and well water supplies, this cartridge uses a graded pore structure to maximize dirt-holding capacity.<\/p>\n Multi-Layered Depth Filtration:<\/b> The melt-blown design features a gradient density that traps larger particles on the outside and finer particles toward the core. This ensures the entire thickness of the filter is utilized, preventing premature surface clogging.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Superior Equipment Protection:<\/b> By removing abrasive silt and rust, this pre-filter acts as a “shield” for secondary filters like Carbon Blocks and sensitive Reverse Osmosis (RO) membranes, significantly extending their operational life.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Chemical & Temperature Resilience:<\/b> Made from 100% pure, non-toxic polypropylene, it is highly resistant to bacterial growth and handles a wide temperature range ($4\\text{\u00b0C}$<\/span> to $60\\text{\u00b0C}$<\/span>), making it safe for drinking water, food processing, and pharmaceutical use.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Low Pressure Drop:<\/b> Despite its fine micron rating, the tubular structure allows for a high flow rate ($5\\text{–}10\\text{ GPM}$<\/span> for slim units), ensuring you maintain consistent water pressure across your taps and showers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Individually Wrapped:<\/b> Each cartridge is shrink-wrapped to maintain hygiene and prevent contamination before installation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Whole-House Filtration:<\/b> The ideal first stage for protecting modern homes with multiple bathrooms and high-end fixtures.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Industrial & Commercial RO Pre-Treatment:<\/b> A critical component for 250 LPH, 500 LPH, and larger industrial water plants.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Borehole & Well Water:<\/b> Effectively filters out the fine “red mud” and sand common in local ground water sources.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Ensure ultra-clear water with the 20-Inch PP Sediment Water Filter Cartridge<\/strong>. Crafted from 100% food-grade, melt-blown polypropylene, this high-capacity filter effectively captures sand, dirt, rust, and silt that can clog your pipes and damage expensive appliances. Its 20-inch length provides double the filtration surface area of standard 10-inch filters, making it perfect for high-flow residential and industrial applications in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n Micron Rating:<\/b> Available in high-precision 1 Micron<\/b> or 5 Micron<\/b> for tailored sediment removal.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n High Capacity:<\/b> Advanced depth filtration ensures a longer lifespan and fewer replacements.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Universal Fit:<\/b> Compatible with all standard 20-inch Slim (2.5″) or Jumbo (4.5″) filter housings.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Durability:<\/b> Robust construction designed to withstand pressure surges up to 100 PSI.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9015,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[33,24],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-8999","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-water-filter-cartridges","product_cat-water-filters","desktop-align-center","tablet-align-center","mobile-align-center","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/8999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8999"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=8999"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=8999"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prudenceeng.lk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=8999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Key Features & Benefits:<\/b><\/h3>\n
