Description
FITaqua AC-PP-10-5 is a mechanical 5-micron filter cartridge for standard 10-inch housings, designed for effective removal of insoluble impurities from water, such as rust, sand, silt, and suspended solids. This water filter, made of polypropylene nonwoven fabric, works well both in pipe-mounted installations and under-sink systems, as well as an element that protects the reverse osmosis filter and the entire water filtration system. A 5-micron filtration rating, 10 x 2.5 inch standard size, flow rate up to 15 l/min, and PZH approval, BPA FREE, and PHTHALATE FREE markings make it a practical choice for everyday water treatment.

5-micron mechanical water filtration for many applications
The AC-PP-10-5 model is a mechanical foam cartridge by FITaqua, made of polypropylene nonwoven fabric. Its function is to retain mechanical impurities present in water before it reaches further filtration stages or the point of use.
The cartridge captures insoluble particles in water as small as 5 microns, including:
- rust,
- sand,
- silt,
- suspended solids,
- other mechanical impurities.
As a result, the water is pre-cleaned of deposits that may impair the operation of fittings, devices, and subsequent filter cartridges.
Which filters is the AC-PP-10-5 cartridge compatible with?
The cartridge has a standard 10 x 2.5 inch size, so it fits most 10-inch filter housings available on the market.
It can be used in various water treatment solutions, such as:
- filters mounted on pipes,
- under-sink filters,
- osmosis systems for drinking water treatment,
- setups where it works as a prefilter to protect the RO membrane.
This is a universal cartridge for domestic and utility applications wherever effective mechanical filtration is needed before further water purification stages.
Why choose a polypropylene nonwoven cartridge?
Polypropylene nonwoven fabric is a material commonly used in mechanical filtration due to its good effectiveness in retaining solid particles and broad compatibility with popular filter housings. The AC-PP-10-5 model uses meltblown technology, which makes it possible to obtain a stable filtration structure and an accuracy suitable for everyday water treatment.
In practice, this means effective protection of further system components and support for devices such as an RO filter, a classic under-sink filter, or a complete reverse osmosis system.
Safety of use and build quality
The cartridge has PZH approval, as well as BPA FREE and PHTHALATE FREE markings. These are important features for users looking for water filtration and treatment solutions intended for everyday contact with a home installation.
The product is manufactured in Poland and undergoes quality control at every stage of production.
Operation and cartridge replacement
The cartridge flow rate is up to 15 l/min, which allows for convenient use in typical domestic installations. Its service life reaches up to 12,000 liters or up to 6 months of operation.
The actual service life of the cartridge depends on the level of water consumption and the degree of contamination. If there is a higher amount of sediment in the water, replacement may be needed sooner. The maximum operating temperature of the cartridge is 38°C.
Regular replacement of the mechanical cartridge helps maintain high filtration efficiency and protects subsequent system components, especially when the cartridge works as a prefilter before the RO membrane or other purification stages.
