Applied Membranes melt-blown polypropylene sediment filters remove dirt, rust, sand, silt, and other suspended solids from the water to protect downstream plumbing, fixtures, and equipments from damage due to sediment buildup.   The advanced graded pore structure maximizes the dirt-holding capacity and filter life by capturing the larger particles on the outside, and the smallest particles on the inside - so the entire depth of the filter is utilized.

Commonly used as stage 1 in a home RO system, Applied Membranes 5-Micron filter cartridge is excellent for reverse osmosis pretreatment, or as a stand-alone sediment control filtration solution.
