Description
FCPP1BB20 WodaRO BIG BLUE 20" string filter 1 micron is a sedimentary filter cartridge for preliminary mechanical water filtration. It works well as a water filter in residential and utility installations where protection of fittings, household appliances, and heating system components against fine solid contaminants is important. Thanks to its construction from pure polypropylene fiber wound around a core, it effectively traps sand, sludge, silt, and rust, supporting everyday water treatment and the operation of more advanced solutions such as a water filtration system or a reverse osmosis filter.
Effective mechanical filtration for installations and equipment
The BIG BLUE 20" sediment cartridge with 1 micron filtration accuracy is designed to remove fine fractions of solid contaminants present in water. Such deposits not only reduce the quality of utility water, but can also accelerate wear of installations and negatively affect the operation of household and heating devices.
The FCPP1BB20 model helps limit the presence of typical mechanical contaminants such as:
- sand,
- sludge,
- silt,
- rust.
It is a good choice wherever effective pre-filtration is needed before further treatment stages or before equipment sensitive to suspended particles.
Polypropylene fiber construction
The cartridge is made of pure polypropylene fiber wound around a filtration core. This construction is no accident — it provides increasing filtration density toward the center of the cartridge. In practice, this means gradual capture of contaminants on successive layers of filtration material.
Thanks to this solution, filtration is stable and efficient, and the cartridge itself performs well as a pre-treatment element for water in larger Big Blue 20" housings.
What is the BIG BLUE 20" 1 micron string filter used for?
The product is intended for preliminary filtration of suspended matter and mechanical deposits. Its task is to retain fine solid particles that could lead to damage or accelerated wear of water system components.
The cartridge can be used as a protective element for:
- water installations,
- household appliances,
- heating devices,
- advanced water treatment systems.
In practice, such a string filter often serves as the first filtration stage, preparing water for further purification in systems using a osmosis filter, reverse osmosis, or another reverse osmosis system.
The cartridge is intended for mechanical filtration and removal of solid contaminants. It is not designed to change the taste, odor, or chemical composition of water. To maintain high filtration efficiency and proper protection of the installation, the cartridge should be regularly inspected and replaced depending on the level of water contamination and the intensity of use.
Key practical benefits
- 1 micron filtration accuracy for capturing very fine mechanical impurities,
- string construction made of pure polypropylene fiber,
- filtration density increasing toward the core,
- effective removal of sand, sludge, silt, and rust,
- protection of installations, household appliances, and heating devices against deposits,
- suitability as a pre-stage in water filtration and treatment systems,
- BIG BLUE 20" format suitable for larger filter housings.
Where does it work best?
The FCPP1BB20 cartridge is used wherever water may contain suspended matter and mechanical deposits that need to be effectively separated at the very beginning of the filtration process. It is a practical solution for users who want to reduce the impact of contaminants on the durability of installations and equipment.
It can be used as part of a filtration system in residential buildings and in other places where preliminary mechanical filtration is needed before further treatment.

FAQ
What is the BIG BLUE 20" 1 micron string filter used for?
It is a cartridge for preliminary mechanical water filtration. It retains fine solid contaminants such as sand, sludge, silt, and rust, protecting the installation and connected equipment.
What contaminants does this filter cartridge remove?
The cartridge removes fine fractions of mechanical contaminants, including sand, sludge, silt, and rust. It is designed to retain suspended matter and deposits present in water.
What does 1 micron filtration accuracy mean?
1 micron accuracy means very fine mechanical filtration, allowing small solid particles to be retained. This is useful where effective protection of the installation and subsequent stages of water treatment is important.
What material is the cartridge made of?
The cartridge is made of pure polypropylene fiber. The material is wound around a filtration core, creating a structure with increasing filtration density toward the center.
Why does the string construction matter?
The string design means filtration takes place in layers. The material density increases toward the core, so contaminants are captured gradually, and the cartridge works effectively as a sediment filter.
Is this cartridge suitable as a pre-filter for a reverse osmosis system?
Yes, it can work as a pre-stage in an advanced water filtration system, also before solutions such as a reverse osmosis filter, osmosis filter, or reverse osmosis, provided that a suitable BIG BLUE 20" housing and a compatible installation configuration are used.
Does the cartridge improve the taste and odor of water?
No, it is a cartridge for mechanical filtration. Its purpose is to remove solid contaminants, not to change the taste, odor, or chemical composition of water.
How often should the cartridge be replaced?
The replacement frequency depends on water quality and intensity of use. The cartridge should be checked regularly and replaced when the level of contamination affects filtration efficiency or water flow.
In what applications does such a water filter work best?
It works best in installations requiring protection against mechanical deposits — before household appliances, water system components, heating devices, and as part of a larger water treatment system.
