FCPS foam insert for waterRO BIG BLUE 20" with a precision of 20 microns for mechanical water filtration. It effectively captures fine solid impurities (silt, sludge, and sediments), thereby protecting the installation and subsequent, more specialized inserts (e.g., carbon, softening, de-ironing). Made of polypropylene non-woven fabric, it filters through the entire structure of the insert. Designed for 20" BIG BLUE type housings.

Description
FCPS20BB20 WodaRO is a BIG BLUE 20" 20 micron foam insert designed for mechanical water filtration in domestic and utility installations. This filter insert effectively retains silt, sludge and other fine deposits, thereby supporting the water filtration system, protecting the installation, fixtures and subsequent treatment stages. It is a practical water filter used as a pre-stage before more specialized media, also in systems such as a reverse osmosis filter or other water treatment solutions.

Effective mechanical water filtration
The insert from the FCPS WodaRO BIG BLUE series has been designed to remove mechanical impurities from water, also known as sedimentary impurities. The filtration accuracy of 20 microns means that the product is effective at capturing fine fractions of solid contaminants such as silt, sludge and deposits.
Such contaminants may be present both in water from a private well and in mains water, where they often enter during transmission. Using the insert helps limit the passage of solid particles to further elements of the installation, improving the operating conditions of the entire filtration system.
Why choose the FCPS20BB20 insert
The mechanical foam insert plays an important protective role in water treatment systems. By retaining solid contaminants at an early stage, it reduces the load on subsequent inserts and helps extend their effective service life.
- effectively retains silt, sludge and fine deposits,
- protects the water installation and fixtures against mechanical contaminants,
- provides protection for more expensive carbon, softening and iron-removal inserts,
- supports the proper operation of under-sink and inline systems,
- works well as a pre-stage wherever effective water treatment matters.
Filtration through the entire structure of the insert
The insert is made of high-quality foam, i.e. polypropylene nonwoven fabric. The material has been formed to ensure water filtration through the entire structure of the insert, not only on its surface. Such a design supports effective capture of mechanical contaminants as water flows through the filter media.
Polypropylene used in this type of insert is a popular material in water filtration solutions due to its good service durability and use in sediment filtration.
Application
The FCPS20BB20 model is intended for 20" BIG BLUE housings. It can be used, among others, in:
- under-sink filters,
- inline filters,
- multi-stage water treatment systems,
- systems where protection of downstream filtration stages from mechanical deposits is required.
In practice, such an insert works well as the first or pre-filtration stage before specialized inserts. As a result, the entire system, including solutions such as a reverse osmosis system or an osmosis filter, can operate under better conditions and with a lower load of solid contaminants.
The insert is intended for 20" BIG BLUE housings. Service life depends on the quality of the feed water and the amount of contaminants retained. In practice, this means that with more contaminated water, replacement may be needed sooner than after the maximum declared service period.
Operation and everyday benefits
Regular replacement of the sediment filter insert has a direct impact on the effectiveness of installation protection and subsequent filtration stages. The 20 micron foam insert helps limit the build-up of contaminants in devices and fixtures, and also improves the operating conditions of more specialized filter media.
This is especially important in systems where subsequent stages are responsible for improving taste, reducing selected compounds or protecting membranes and filter beds. Mechanical pre-filtration is one of the basic elements of a well-designed water filtration system.

FAQ
What is the FCPS20BB20 WodaRO insert used for?
It is a water mechanical filtration insert that retains fine solid contaminants such as silt, sludge and deposits. Its purpose is to protect the water installation, fixtures and subsequent filter inserts.
Which housings does this insert fit?
The FCPS20BB20 model is intended for 20" BIG BLUE housings.
What is the filtration accuracy of this insert?
The filtration accuracy is 20 microns, which allows effective capture of fine mechanical contaminants present in the water.
What material is the insert made of?
The insert is made of foam, i.e. polypropylene nonwoven fabric, shaped so that the water is filtered through the entire structure of the insert.
What contaminants does a 20 micron foam insert remove?
The insert primarily retains mechanical and sedimentary contaminants such as silt, sludge and other fine deposits present in well water and mains water.
How long can the insert be used before replacement?
The expected service life of the insert is up to 6 months. The actual service period depends on the quality of the feed water and the amount of contaminants retained by the insert.
Is this insert suitable as protection for other filter inserts?
Yes. The insert is often used as a pre-filter protecting more expensive carbon, softening and iron-removal inserts, as well as elements of the entire installation.
Can the insert be used in under-sink and inline systems?
Yes, the insert can be used both in under-sink filters and inline systems, provided they use housings compatible with the BIG BLUE 20" format.
What is the pressure drop across the insert?
The pressure drop for this model is from 0.2 to 0.4 bar.
