KX Technologies - MKX-B20-RFL - 20" x 4.5" Matrikx RFL - 20 Micron - Radial Flow Carbon Filter

The KX Technologies MKX-B20-RFL is a 20-inch radial flow carbon filter engineered for high-capacity whole house, well, and commercial applications where chlorine, taste, odor, and sediment removal are critical. Its unique radial flow design pulls water from the outside inward through coconut shell GAC, delivering efficient filtration at 3 GPM with minimal pressure drop.
SPECIFICATIONS

MKX-B20-RFL Technical Details

Model Number KX Technologies MKX-B20-RFL
Dimensions 20" x 4.5"
Filtration Rating 20 Micron
Media Type Coconut Shell GAC (Granular Activated Carbon)
Flow Rate 3 GPM @ 1.0 PSI
Temperature Range 40-180°F
Removes Chlorine, taste, odor, sediment
Flow Design Radial (outside-in)
INSTALLATION & USE

How to Install the MKX-B20-RFL Filter

  1. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure by opening a downstream faucet
  2. Unscrew the 20" x 4.5" Big Blue housing sump and remove the old filter cartridge
  3. Insert the MKX-B20-RFL into the housing with the open end facing up, ensuring proper seating on the center post
  4. Lubricate the O-ring with clean silicone grease and hand-tighten the sump back onto the housing cap
  5. Turn water supply back on slowly and flush the filter for 3-5 minutes to remove any carbon fines before use
COMPATIBILITY

Housing & System Fit

The KX Technologies MKX-B20-RFL is designed for standard 20" x 4.5" Big Blue filter housings. It fits whole house water filtration systems, well water treatment setups, and commercial installations requiring high-capacity chlorine and taste/odor reduction. This radial flow design is ideal for applications with higher flow demands where traditional axial flow carbon blocks would create excessive pressure drop. Compatible with Filtrex, Pentek, and other brands using 20-inch Big Blue housings with 1.5" NPT ports.

🔧 Pro Tip: Radial flow filters like the MKX-B20-RFL handle higher flow rates with less pressure loss than standard carbon blocks. If you're experiencing low water pressure with a traditional 20-micron carbon block, switching to this radial design can restore flow while maintaining effective chlorine and taste/odor removal.
