FCCEL5-L Aquafilter pleated filter LONG 20"
FCCEL5-L
Rating
FCCEL5-L Aquafilter is a mechanical 20" LONG accordion filter cartridge for cold water filtration. It effectively traps sand, rust, silt, and suspensions, making it suitable as the first stage of drinking and utility water treatment. The accordion design increases the filtration surface area with low pressure drop. The cartridge is reusable (up to 3 times) after being rinsed with water.
Description
FCCEL5-L Aquafilter is a mechanical pleated filter cartridge 20" LONG for cold water filtration. It effectively traps sand, rust, silt, and other suspended solids, making it an excellent first stage in drinking water and utility water installations. Thanks to its increased working surface area, it provides efficient water treatment with low pressure drop and can be used in many systems as a practical water filter, also as a pre-filter element before more advanced solutions such as a water filtration system or reverse osmosis.
Mechanical contaminant filtration in 20" LONG housings
Aquafilter FCCEL5-L belongs to the series of reusable mechanical pleated cartridges designed for use with cold water. Its purpose is to capture solid contaminants present in water that may reduce its quality, burden subsequent filtration stages, and accelerate wear of installation components.
The cartridge filters water with an accuracy of 5 microns, effectively removing typical mechanical contaminants found in household and utility water treatment systems.
Key advantages of the Aquafilter FCCEL5-L cartridge
- removes mechanical impurities such as rust, sand, silt, and suspended solids,
- mainly used as the first stage of filtration for drinking water and general utility water,
- it is a reusable cartridge,
- the pleated design provides greater filtration efficiency,
- ensures very good filtration with a low pressure drop,
- fits most 20-inch LONG inline filter housings available on the market.
Why does the pleated design matter?
The pleated structure increases the cartridge's filtration surface compared to simpler mechanical solutions. In practice, this means efficient operation while maintaining good water flow and a lower perceived pressure drop in the installation. This is especially important where pre-filtration is intended to protect downstream system components, such as finer cartridges, water treatment devices, or a reverse osmosis filter.
Application
The FCCEL5-L model performs well wherever effective mechanical filtration of cold water is required. It can operate as a pre-filtration stage in drinking water and utility water systems, helping to reduce the amount of sediment and solid particles passing further into the installation.
It is a good choice for applications where protection of subsequent filtration set components, stable operation, and easy maintenance matter. The cartridge can be used as an element preceding more advanced solutions such as a reverse osmosis system or an osmotic filter.
Operation and reuse
The cartridge is one of the reusable models. It can be used up to 3 times, provided it is first cleaned by rinsing under running water. This is a practical solution for users who want to maintain effective mechanical filtration with convenient and economical operation.
The cartridge is designed for cold water filtration. The recommended service life is 3–6 months until the first rinsing, and the actual operating time depends on the quality of the feed water and the amount of contaminants retained. After a noticeable drop in performance or heavy soiling, the cartridge should be rinsed, and once its reuse potential has been exhausted, it should be replaced with a new one.
Compatibility
Aquafilter FCCEL5-L fits most 20" LONG inline housings available on the market. Before purchase, it is worth comparing the cartridge size and the housing's installation space to ensure proper fit with your existing filtration system.

FAQ
What is the Aquafilter FCCEL5-L cartridge used for?
It is a mechanical pleated cartridge for cold water filtration, designed to remove contaminants such as sand, rust, silt, and suspended solids. It most often works as the first stage of filtration for drinking water and utility water.
What contaminants does this cartridge remove?
The cartridge traps mechanical impurities, including rust, sand, silt, and various types of suspended solids present in water.
Is the FCCEL5-L cartridge reusable?
Yes. The cartridge can be used up to 3 times, as long as it is first cleaned by rinsing under running water.
What type of water is the FCCEL5-L Aquafilter LONG 20" pleated cartridge intended for?
The FCCEL5-L model is intended exclusively for cold water filtration and operates within a temperature range of 2 to 45 °C.
What is the filtration accuracy of the cartridge?
The filtration accuracy is 5 microns, which allows it to effectively remove typical mechanical contaminants from water.
Which housings does the 20" LONG cartridge fit?
The cartridge fits most 20" LONG inline housings available on the market. Before purchase, it is worth checking the dimensional compatibility with your existing housing.
How long can the cartridge be used before rinsing?
The estimated service life is 3-6 months until the first rinsing. The actual operating time depends on the quality of the incoming water and the amount of mechanical contaminants.
Is the cartridge suitable as a pre-filter before osmosis?
Yes. By removing mechanical particles, the cartridge can serve as a pre-filtration stage before systems such as an osmotic filter, reverse osmosis filter, or an advanced water filtration system.
