Aries (AF-20-3005) 20"x2.5" CRC Iron & Lead Removal Filter "Softener"
Filter Specifications
Performance Data
| Part Number | AF-20-3005 |
| Filter Type | Catalytic carbon block with strong cation resin |
| Contaminant Removal | Soluble ferrous iron, lead, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine, taste/odor |
| Housing Compatibility | Standard 20-inch housings with 2.5-inch diameter capacity |
| Flow Direction | Outside-in radial flow |
| Service Life | Varies by water chemistry and contaminant load |
| Recommended Applications | Well water treatment, whole-house filtration, POE systems |
System Integration
The Aries AF-20-3005 installs in any standard 20-inch filter housing designed for 2.5-inch diameter cartridges. Ideal for well water systems with soluble iron issues, this filter combines catalytic carbon's ability to oxidize ferrous iron into filterable ferric particles with strong cation resin for lead reduction and additional softening capacity. Best used as a specialty stage in whole-house systems where iron, lead, or hydrogen sulfide are present. Monitor pressure drop and replace when flow rate diminishes or breakthrough occurs. Not a substitute for a full water softener in high-hardness applications, but provides targeted ion exchange for heavy metals and low-level hardness reduction.
