Pentek ECP Series 1 Micron 20"BB Pleated Cellulose Polyester Filter Cartridge

Pentair (Pentek) ECP Series Cartridges are manufactured from a special formulation of resinClose Viewer-impregnated cellulose and polyester fibers. This unique blend of materials provides higher wet strength than regular cellulose cartridges. It also provides high flow rates and dirt-holding capacity while maintaining extremely low pressure drop.

The media is pleated around a polypropylene core for added strength. The pleated endcaps of the standard cartridges are immersed in a thermo-setting vinyl plastisol. The Big Blue cartridges have a molded endcap with gaskets. The pleated ends are sealed to the endcap with a thermoplastic adhesive. The overlap seam is sonically welded to reduce internal bypass, improving filtration efficiency.

ECP Series Cartridge endcaps feature a color-coding system for easy identification of micron ratings: tan (1 micron), white (5 microns), blue (20 microns), and yellow (50 microns).

ECP Series cartridges contain more media surface area than most competitive cartridges.
