Description
FCPP20BB20 WodaRO Big Blue 20" string filter 20 microns is an efficient filter cartridge for preliminary mechanical water filtration, designed for Big Blue 20" housings. As a water filter, it removes solid contaminants such as sand, silt, sludge and rust, helping protect the installation, fittings and household and heating appliances. It is a practical element that supports effective water treatment and can play an important role as a first stage when the entire water filtration system needs protection against mechanical sediments.
String cartridge for mechanical water filtration
The BIG BLUE 20" string sediment cartridge has been designed to remove fine fractions of solid contaminants present in water. It traps particles that can worsen the quality of domestic water and contribute to sediment buildup in the installation.
Its purpose is effective mechanical filtration of suspended matter and contaminants such as:
- sand,
- sludge,
- silt,
- rust.
This solution is especially useful where water requires pre-treatment before further use or before additional filtration stages.
Construction and operating principle
The cartridge is made of pure polypropylene fiber wound around a filter core. This construction is not accidental — it ensures increasing filter density toward the core, which promotes effective capture of mechanical contaminants throughout the cartridge structure.
Thanks to the string design, contaminants are retained gradually, and the cartridge itself works well as a protective element for the further parts of the installation. This is especially important when the goal is to limit the passage of sediment into devices operating with water.
Application
The cartridge is intended for the preliminary filtration of suspended solids and mechanical deposits. It can be used in systems where the priority is protecting the water installation and devices exposed to contact with solid contaminants.
It helps protect, among others:
- water installation,
- household appliances,
- heating devices.
Pre-filtration is also very important in more advanced solutions, such as domestic water preparation systems or setups working with devices such as reverse osmosis filters, osmosis filters, reverse osmosis, or reverse osmosis systems, where reducing the amount of mechanical sediment helps protect subsequent elements of the system.
The cartridge is intended for mechanical filtration of solid contaminants. To maintain effective performance and proper installation protection, monitor its wear level and replace it after a noticeable drop in flow or clear operational contamination.
Main benefits
- effective removal of fine fractions of solid contaminants from water,
- capture of sand, sludge, silt and rust,
- made of pure polypropylene fiber,
- string construction wound around a filter core,
- increasing filter density toward the core,
- support for preliminary water filtration before further treatment stages,
- protection of installation, household appliances and heating devices against mechanical deposits.
Why pre-filtration is worth using
Mechanical contaminants present in water can lead to faster wear of installation components, sediment buildup and poorer performance of devices that come into contact with water. The Big Blue 20" 20 micron string cartridge limits the passage of these particles further downstream, thereby supporting safer and more predictable system operation.
It is a simple yet important element in situations where stable operation of a domestic installation and effective protection of devices against typical mechanical contaminants matter.

FAQ
What is the BIG BLUE 20" 20 micron string cartridge used for?
The cartridge is used for preliminary mechanical water filtration. Its task is to retain fine solid contaminants such as sand, sludge, silt and rust in order to better protect the installation and devices operating with water.
What contaminants does this filter cartridge remove?
The cartridge removes fine fractions of solid contaminants present in water, including sand, sludge, silt and rust. It is intended for filtering sediment and mechanical suspended matter.
What material is the cartridge made of?
The cartridge is made of pure polypropylene fiber. The filter material is wound around a filter core, creating a string structure responsible for capturing contaminants.
What does the structure with increasing density toward the core provide?
This design means that the filter gradually captures contaminants within its structure. The increase in filter density toward the core supports effective mechanical filtration and helps retain fine solid particles.
Which housings is this cartridge compatible with?
The model is designed for Big Blue 20" housings. Before purchase, make sure that the housing you have is compatible with this size standard.
Is this cartridge suitable for protecting household and heating devices?
Yes, that is exactly what it is intended for. Preliminary mechanical filtration helps reduce the amount of sediment reaching household appliances and heating devices, supporting their protection against solid contaminants.
Can the cartridge be used as the first stage of an expanded water filtration system?
Yes, the string cartridge works very well as a preliminary stage. It can support the protection of further components of the installation and water treatment systems, including systems using an osmosis filter or reverse osmosis filter.
When should the cartridge be replaced?
The cartridge should be replaced when it is visibly dirty or when a noticeable drop in water flow occurs. Regular monitoring of its condition helps maintain filtration efficiency and proper installation protection.
