Description:
The Inline Sediment K-33 (PP) is a pre-filter cartridge designed to remove impurities and contaminants from the water before it reaches the alkaline filtration stage. It's a pleated polyester (PP) cartridge that uses a unique design to capture sediment, dirt, and other particles as small as 5 microns.
 
What does it do?
The Inline Sediment K-33 (PP) filter cartridge performs several important functions:
1. Removes sediment and particulate matter: The cartridge captures sediment, dirt, sand, and other particles that can clog the more expensive and delicate alkaline filters downstream.
2. Reduces impurities: The filter removes impurities like rust, corrosion, and other contaminants that can affect the taste, odor, and appearance of the water.
3. Protects equipment: By removing large particles and sediment, the Inline Sediment K-33 (PP) helps protect the more expensive alkaline filters and other equipment from damage.
4. Extends filter life: By capturing larger particles and sediment, the cartridge helps extend the life of the alkaline filters by reducing the amount of debris that accumulates on their surfaces.

When to replace?
The Inline Sediment K-33 (PP) cartridge should be replaced every 6-12 months or as recommended by the manufacturer, depending on the usage and water quality. Failure to replace the cartridge regularly may lead to reduced filter performance, contamination of the alkaline filters, or even damage to the equipment.
Remember to always follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation, maintenance, and replacement of this filter cartridge to ensure optimal performance and safety.
