GrowoniX 4.5 x 20 in Pleated Sediment Filter for RO Pre-Filtration
This 10-micron pleated cartridge is the first line of defense in a GrowoniX water system, catching the dirt, silt, and particulates that would otherwise clog your carbon stage and foul the RO membrane. The pleated design packs far more surface area than a standard spun filter, giving it high dirt-holding capacity and very low pressure drop so flow stays strong as the cartridge loads. It's built from 100% pure polypropylene polyester that resists bacteria and chemicals, and it's the sediment filter that ships standard in most GrowoniX units.
Washable, Reusable 10 Micron Filter for High-Flow Systems
Because the pleats are washable, you can rinse the cartridge and put it back in service instead of replacing it every cycle, which adds up over a season of feedings. It's made with FDA CFR 21-approved material and meets NSF Standards 42, 61, and 372, so it's cleared for drinking-water duty as well as RO pre-filtration, industrial, and municipal use. Run it as the lead stage on a 4.5 x 20 in (Big Blue) housing; rinse it when flow starts to drop and replace it once the pleats no longer come clean.
Key Features
- 10-Micron Pleated Media: Traps sand, silt, rust, and particulates before they reach carbon and membrane stages.
- Washable & Reusable: Rinse and reinstall instead of replacing every cycle for lower running cost.
- Low Pressure Drop: High pleated surface area keeps flow strong as the cartridge loads with debris.
- 100% Polypropylene Polyester: Bacteria- and chemical-resistant construction for a long service life.
- FDA & NSF Certified: FDA CFR 21 material meeting NSF Standards 42, 61, and 372 for drinking-water use.
