NCP Series cartridges are constructed from a carbon- impregnated non-cellulose media. They offer sediment-filtration, as well as taste, odor and chlorine taste and odor reduction in one cartridge. Unlike cellulose cartridges, NCP Series cartridges are resistant to bacterial attack allowing them to be used for municipal and non-chlorinated water applications.Pleats provide additional surface area for high dirt-loading capacity, while maintaining minimal pressure drop. This combination of a pleated polyester media and carbon filtration produces an outstanding filter cartridge with extended service life.NCP Series cartridges are excellent polishing filters, closed loop streams and are ideal for post reverse osmosis and well water applications.Features:Non-cellulose media resists bacterial attackProvides sediment filtration and chlorine taste & odor reductionPleated for maximum dirt-loading capacityNominal 10-micron rating
