Description
WodaRO FCPS1BB10 is a BIG BLUE 10" foam cartridge designed for mechanical water filtration in standard 4.5" × 10" housings. This filter cartridge helps retain sand, silt, rust, and other sediments, supporting everyday water treatment and the operation of domestic installations. It works well as a pre-filter in whole-house filters, as well as a component of a larger water filtration system.

Mechanical cartridge for effective filtration of solid contaminants
FCPS1BB10 is a high-quality foam mechanical cartridge designed for use in the popular BIG BLUE 10" format. It fits standard Big Blue 4.5" × 10" housings and is responsible for capturing mechanical impurities present in water.
This type of cartridge is particularly useful wherever water may contain deposits that reduce its clarity and user comfort. Using a pre-filter helps limit the presence of solid particles in utility water and supports the protection of downstream installation components.
Key product benefits
Effective water filtration – precisely captures particles as small as 1 µm, such as sand, silt, rust, and other sediments.
First stage of purification – ideal as a pre-filter in whole-house filters and in central water systems in a home or apartment.
Optimal flow – the perforated structure ensures even water flow with minimal pressure drop.
Extended service life – durable polypropylene foam and a well-thought-out design make the cartridge last up to 6 months.
Better water quality – improves the clarity, taste, and cleanliness of utility water in the kitchen and bathroom.
Application of the FCPS1BB10 cartridge
The WodaRO FCPS1BB10 foam cartridge is used as the first stage of mechanical filtration. It performs well in domestic and apartment water installations where it is necessary to retain sand, silt, rust, and other sediments before further water treatment.
It can operate as a standalone water filter in an in-line system or as a component preceding further purification stages. In practice, it is a solution often used where protection of fittings, improved water clarity, and support for more advanced systems such as a osmotic filter, reverse osmosis filter, or reverse osmosis system are important.
Construction and material
The cartridge is made of certified polypropylene. This material is widely used in mechanical filtration due to its durability, resistance to typical operating conditions, and ability to effectively retain suspended solids.
The foam, perforated structure of the cartridge has been designed to maintain even water flow while efficiently capturing solid particles. This combination provides effective filtration and stable everyday system performance.
To maintain high filtration efficiency, the cartridge should be replaced regularly. Actual service life depends on water quality and usage intensity. In case of higher contamination levels, replacement may be needed earlier than after 6 months.
Why use pre-filtration
Mechanical filtration is an important stage in preparing water for further use. Retaining solid contaminants at the beginning helps improve water clarity and reduce sediment build-up in the installation.
The FCPS1BB10 cartridge works well as the first purification stage in domestic systems. It is a good choice both for basic installation protection and as a complement to more advanced water treatment solutions.

Questions
Which housings does the WodaRO FCPS1BB10 cartridge fit?
The cartridge fits standard Big Blue housings measuring 4.5" × 10", meaning the BIG BLUE 10" format.
What contaminants does this cartridge retain?
The cartridge is intended to remove mechanical contaminants such as sand, silt, rust, and other sediments present in water.
Is this cartridge suitable as the first filtration stage?
Yes. FCPS1BB10 is described as an ideal pre-filter for whole-house filters and central water systems in a home or apartment.
What material is the cartridge made of?
The product is made of certified polypropylene, which ensures durability and effective mechanical filtration.
What is the cartridge service life?
The cartridge service life is up to 6 months. The actual operating time depends on the quality of the filtered water and the amount of mechanical contaminants.
What temperature range can the cartridge operate in?
The cartridge is designed to operate at temperatures from 5 to 40 °C.
Does the cartridge affect water use comfort?
Yes. Retaining sediments helps improve the clarity, taste, and cleanliness of utility water, which translates into greater everyday comfort in the kitchen and bathroom.
Can this cartridge be used before a reverse osmosis system?
Yes, mechanical filtration is often used as a pre-stage before solutions such as reverse osmosis, an osmotic filter, or a reverse osmosis filter, because it helps reduce the supply of solid contaminants to subsequent filtration stages.
