FCCFE20BB Aquafilter deionization cartridge BIG BLUE 20

Iron removal cartridge for service water Big Blue 20

Aquafilter FCCFE20BB is a cartridge with active media designed for iron removal from water. Its purpose is to effectively retain iron compounds dissolved in water, which may be responsible for reduced service water quality and accelerated fouling of fittings, appliances, and surfaces that come into contact with it.

The cartridge is used wherever effective service water treatment is needed in 20" Big Blue type housings. It helps protect washing machines, dishwashers, and heating equipment while also improving everyday water use comfort at home.

How the Aquafilter FCCFE20BB cartridge works

Inside the cartridge, a special fine-grained granulate with a high capacity for capturing iron ions is used. As a result, water flowing through the media undergoes an effective iron removal process, which translates into a clear improvement in its service quality.

The composition of the media placed inside the cartridge housing adjusts the water reaction (pH), supporting the iron removal process. In addition, the cartridge design has been developed so that the flowing water penetrates the entire ion-exchange granulate bed, ensuring its maximum performance.

The cartridge is also equipped with its own final filter, which prevents granulate particles from escaping beyond the filter. Additional protection is provided by a polypropylene filter insert.

Key benefits in everyday use

Using the Aquafilter FCCFE20BB iron removal cartridge helps improve the service parameters of water and reduce the effects of iron presence in the system. This solution is especially useful wherever water causes deposits, streaks, or an unpleasant metallic aftertaste.

Cartridge application

The FCCFE20BB model is intended for 20" Big Blue type housings. It works well as part of a service water filtration system wherever the goal is to reduce the impact of iron on water use comfort and on the condition of appliances and installations.

The cartridge can be used for both cold and hot service water, which gives it broad application in household water treatment systems.

Why iron removal from water is important

Excessive iron content in water can affect not only its taste and odor, but also the appearance of sanitary ware, fittings, and laundry. In practice, this means a greater tendency for yellow stains to appear on fabrics, as well as brown and rusty streaks on sinks, bathtubs, or other surfaces that come into contact with water.

Selecting the right iron removal cartridge for a Big Blue 20 housing allows you to create an effective water treatment stage in a domestic installation. This type of solution can operate as part of a larger filtration set, similarly to other components used in systems preparing water for everyday use.
