155359-43 / DGD-2501 Pentek Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge
Product Description
This Pentek DGD-2501 spun polypropylene filter cartridge reduces sand, silt, scale, and rust particles in residential, commercial, and municipal drinking water. It has two separate gradient layers for higher particle reduction efficiency and dirt-loading capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The nominal filtration rating of the pre-filter layer is 25 microns, and the rating of the post-filter layer is 1 micron. The filter is made of spun polypropylene fibers for resistance to chemicals and bacteria. It has an initial pressure drop of less than 1 pound per square inch (psi) at a flow rate of 10 gallons per minute (gpm), and operates over a temperature range of 40 to 145 degrees F (4.4 to 62.8 degrees C). This spun polypropylene filter cartridge meets National Sanitation Foundation/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) standard 42 for quality assurance, and is used for treatment of residential, commercial, and municipal drinking water.
Specifications
Nominal filtration rating (pre-filter) 25 microns
Nominal filtration rating (post-filter) 1 micron
Initial pressure drop at 10 gpm <1 psi
Temperature range 40 to 145 degrees F (4.4 to 62.8 degrees C)
Maximum dimensions (H x W) 10 x 4-1/2 inches (254 x 114 mm)
Materials certification NSF/ANSI standard 42
The nominal filtration rating is for a particle removal efficiency of 85%.
H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.
Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by means of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They are made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems typically consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to remove different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that is blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum flow rate, and the amount of water that can be filtered before the filter must be replaced. Water filters are used in a wide range of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.

My well tends to pick up a lot of sediment and these filters are better than any paper filter, plus they have two gradients to trap the larger particles before the smaller particles. My family uses a bunch of water and these filters last well past 3 months.

These are great filters, much better than the pleated filters I've used for years. I cut it open after I changed it and was pleased to see the particles trapped throughout the thickness of the filter. This allowed my water pressure to remain higher over the life of the filter. I highly recommend it!!!
