Description
FCPS50BB10 WodaRO is a foam filter cartridge BIG BLUE 10" designed for mechanical water filtration with a 50 µm filtration rating. It works as an effective water filter in standard Big Blue 4.5" × 10" housings, supporting everyday water treatment at home and serving as a practical element of a larger water filtration system. It traps sand, silt, rust, and other deposits, improves water clarity, and helps protect the installation and subsequent filtration stages from mechanical contaminants.

BIG BLUE 10" foam cartridge for effective mechanical filtration
The FCPS50BB10 model is a high-quality mechanical foam cartridge for water, designed for use in popular Big Blue 10" housings. With a 50 µm filtration rating, it effectively captures larger solid contaminants present in utility water, resulting in better water clarity and cleanliness in everyday use.
This solution is particularly well suited where an efficient pre-filter is needed before further water treatment. It can be used both in inline filters and in central water installations in a house or apartment.
Key product benefits
- Effective water filtration – the cartridge precisely captures particles as small as 50 µm, such as sand, silt, rust, and other mechanical sediments.
- First stage of purification – ideal for use as a pre-filter in inline filters and central water installations in a house or apartment.
- Optimal flow – the perforated structure supports uniform water flow with minimal pressure drop.
- Extended service life – durable polypropylene foam and a well-thought-out design allow the cartridge to be used for up to 6 months.
- Better water quality – filtration improves the clarity, taste, and cleanliness of utility water used in the kitchen and bathroom.
Applications of the FCPS50BB10 cartridge
The cartridge is designed to work as an element of mechanical water filtration in standard Big Blue 4.5" × 10" housings. It is most often used as the first purification stage, whose task is to capture sediments before further water treatment.
As a result, it can be a practical addition to a home installation, pre-filtration systems, and solutions where reducing the amount of mechanical contaminants reaching fixtures, appliances, and subsequent cartridges is important. This type of filter cartridge is also often used before systems such as a reverse osmosis filter, an osmotic filter, reverse osmosis, or a reverse osmosis system, where preliminary removal of sediments helps maintain the efficiency of later filtration stages.
Design and operating principle
FCPS50BB10 is a foam mechanical cartridge made of certified polypropylene. This material works well in the filtration of solid contaminants and supports stable operation under typical water system operating conditions.
The perforated structure of the cartridge has been designed to ensure effective sediment retention while maintaining uniform flow. This is especially important when the filter is to work as the first element of the filtration path and should not excessively restrict water pressure.
The cartridge should be selected for standard Big Blue 10" housings with dimensions of 4.5" × 10". The service period of up to 6 months depends on water quality and the amount of mechanical contaminants, so in practice it is worth checking the condition of the cartridge and replacing it when flow noticeably decreases or filtration efficiency deteriorates.
Benefits in everyday use
Mechanical removal of sand, silt, rust, and other sediments is a simple way to improve the quality of utility water. In practice, this means clearer water, fewer visible contaminants, and better comfort when using water outlets.
Using the FCPS50BB10 cartridge as a pre-treatment stage also helps limit the passage of solid particles to further components of the installation. This is a particularly useful solution in houses and apartments where the water filtration system needs to operate stably and effectively over a long period of time.

FAQ
Which housings is the FCPS50BB10 cartridge compatible with?
The cartridge fits standard Big Blue housings with dimensions of 4.5" × 10", i.e. the popular BIG BLUE 10" format.
What filtration rating does this cartridge offer?
The FCPS50BB10 model filters with a 50 µm rating, which allows it to retain typical mechanical contaminants such as sand, silt, rust, and other sediments.
What contaminants does the foam cartridge remove?
The cartridge is designed to remove mechanical contaminants present in water, including sand, silt, rust, and other solid sediments from 50 µm.
Is this cartridge suitable as a first filtration stage?
Yes. It is a very good solution as a pre-filter in inline filters and central water installations, where the first stage is meant to retain mechanical sediments.
How long can one cartridge be used?
The cartridge service life is up to 6 months. The actual service time depends on water quality and the amount of contaminants present in the installation.
Within what temperature range can the cartridge operate?
The cartridge is designed to operate at temperatures from 5 to 40 °C.
What material is the cartridge made of?
The FCPS50BB10 model is made of certified polypropylene, which works well in mechanical water filtration.
Does the cartridge affect water flow?
Yes, but its design has been developed to ensure uniform flow with minimal pressure drop. As the cartridge wears and contaminants accumulate, the flow may gradually decrease, which is a natural sign that the cartridge should be replaced.
Can the cartridge work with a more advanced filtration system?
Yes. As a mechanical cartridge for removing sediments, it can serve as a pre-stage in more advanced water treatment installations, including before subsequent filtration stages.
