FCCFE10BB Aquafilter deionization cartridge BIG BLUE 10

Iron removal cartridge for Big Blue 10 housings

Aquafilter FCCFE10BB has been designed to operate in 10" Big Blue housings. Inside the cartridge there is active iron-removal media that effectively captures iron compounds dissolved in water. This solution is especially useful wherever water causes a metallic aftertaste, unpleasant odor, or leaves difficult-to-remove marks on appliances and surfaces.

The cartridge uses a special fine-grained granulate with a high capacity for capturing iron ions. At the same time, the media composition inside the housing helps adjust the water reaction (pH), which improves the iron removal process itself and supports more effective performance of the filtration medium.

How does the Aquafilter FCCFE10BB cartridge work?

Water flowing through the cartridge penetrates the entire ion-exchange granulate bed, ensuring its maximum utilization. As a result, the cartridge effectively supports the reduction of iron compounds responsible for deteriorating the utility properties of water.

The design has been supplemented with a final filter that prevents granulate particles from escaping beyond the cartridge. Additionally, a polypropylene filter insert has been used, serving as extra protection for the entire filtration structure.

Key advantages of the cartridge

Application in the home and installation

The FCCFE10BB iron removal cartridge is used wherever improvement of utility water quality and reduction of the negative impact of iron on household appliances and home equipment are needed. The product is used to protect household appliances, including washing machines and dishwashers, as well as heating equipment.

Reducing iron compounds translates into more comfortable water use and a lower risk of deposits and discoloration. In practice, this means cleaner fittings, fewer marks on bathtubs and sinks, and a lower likelihood of yellow stains appearing on fabrics washed in water with elevated iron content.

Operation and installation recommendations

To extend the service life of the cartridge, a housing with a mechanical cartridge from the FCPS or FCPP series should be installed before the housing with the carbon cartridge. Such pre-protection helps reduce the inflow of mechanical impurities and supports stable operation of the entire filtration system.
