10" Foam Water Filter Cartridge PS5 KLARWOD Mechanical Filter for Sand Rust

Effective mechanical filtration of solid contaminants

The KLARWOD PS5 10" foam cartridge has been designed to remove solid contaminants present in installation water. It effectively traps sand, silt, rust, and other sediments, while not causing a significant reduction in water pressure.

This solution is especially useful wherever water may carry solid particles that burden the installation and fittings. The cartridge supports proper operation of household fixtures and limits the buildup of contaminants at water draw-off points.

Protection for installations and household appliances

The mechanical foam cartridge provides very good protection for faucets, cisterns, washing machines, and other appliances installed at home. Filtering out sediments already at the stage of flow through the filter housing helps reduce the risk of contaminants reaching sensitive elements of the installation.

Thanks to this, the cartridge can be used as a practical safeguard in home filtration systems, also as a pre-stage before more advanced solutions such as an osmosis filter, reverse osmosis filter, reverse osmosis, or a complete reverse osmosis system.

Main advantages of the KLARWOD PS5 cartridge

• effectively removes sand, silt, rust, and other sediments,
• depth filtration traps more contaminants because the micron rating decreases toward the core,
• minimal flow resistance and low pressure drops allow operation at higher flow rates,
• high-quality workmanship,
• material approved for contact with food,
• attractive price.

Triple-layer construction and depth filtration

The cartridge design is based on triple-layer depth filtration, which increases the efficiency of sediment retention and improves the use of the entire volume of filter material.

• The micron rating decreases from the outer layer toward the core of the cartridge.
• Larger particles are captured closer to the surface, smaller ones in deeper layers.
• As a result, the effective filtration surface, cleaning efficiency, and cartridge service life increase.

How does the cartridge work?

Contaminated water flows through the cartridge toward the core, and sediments are retained by progressively narrowing micropores. This operating principle translates into high filtration efficiency and good use of the filter material.

1. Large particles, such as sand and silt, are retained at the surface of the cartridge.
2. Smaller particles settle deeper inside. This solution increases filtration efficiency and extends the cartridge operating time.

Application in a home filtration system

The 10" PS5 cartridge is suitable for home installations as an element responsible for the preliminary removal of mechanical contaminants. It helps reduce the presence of sediments in utility water and supports the protection of fixtures and devices connected to the installation.

It is a good choice for users who want to improve water quality in terms of mechanical cleanliness and protect subsequent filtration stages. In practice, such a cartridge often works as the first stage where effective water treatment and stable protection of household appliances matter.
