## Overview

The Pentek EP-10 Carbon Block Filter Cartridge delivers superior water purification with a 5-micron filtration rating, effectively reducing sediment and chlorine taste. Its advanced polyolefin pre-filter extends cartridge life by preventing clogging, while maintaining a low pressure drop of 3.4 psi at 1 gpm for consistent flow. Designed for residential and commercial use, it operates efficiently across a wide temperature range (40°F to 180°F), ensuring clean, great-tasting water every time.

## Description

Pentair Pentek EP Series Carbon Block Cartridges are manufactured using a process that yields a cartridge with a nominal 5- filtration rating and high dirt-holding capacity. A high porosity design helps the cartridge from plugging before its adsorption capacity is exhausted, maximizing the utilization of the carbon while maintaining low pressure drop. These cartridges are protected by a uniquely formulated polyolefin bilaminate pre-filter, designed to significantly increase the useful life of the cartridge by trapping sediment that typically plugs carbon block cartridges. EP Series Cartridges make an ideal choice for a wide range of residential, food service, commercial and industrial applications.

## Features

- Reduces fine sediment and chlorine taste and odor in residential and commercial drinking water
- Nominal filtration rating of 5 microns
- Bonded PAC media with polyolefin pre-filter and polyethylene netting for extended life
- Initial pressure drop of 3.4 psi at a flow rate of 1 gpm
- Temperature range of 40 to 180 degrees F (4.4 to 82.2 degrees C)
