Omnipure - K5540 - 10" x 2.5" T40 GAC Coconut Carbon Inline Filter
K5540 10" x 2.5" T40 GAC Coconut Carbon Inline Filter
Granular activated coconut carbon for final-stage polishing in reverse osmosis systems, removing residual taste and odor with quick-connect simplicity
Granular activated coconut carbon removes chlorine taste and odor from treated water
Coconut Shell Carbon
Premium granular activated carbon from coconut shells provides superior adsorption for chlorine, taste, and odor compounds that pass through RO membranes
Post-RO Polishing
Designed specifically for post-membrane installation, the K5540 handles low-pressure permeate flow and removes trace organics that affect water taste
Quick-Connect Ready
Factory-installed 1/4 inch FQC fittings (also available in 1/4 inch FPT) make installation and replacement straightforward in any standard RO system
Standard 10" Inline
28.6 cubic inches of GAC media in a 10 inch by 2.5 inch housing fits most under-counter RO systems, refrigerators, and inline beverage equipment
T40 Carbon Option
Interchangeable with T28 and T33 carbon densities, the T40 offers balanced contact time and flow rate at 0.5 GPM for typical residential applications

Works With
The Omnipure K5540 fits any system with 1/4 inch tubing connections, including reverse osmosis systems, under-counter drinking water filters, refrigerator water lines, ice makers, beverage dispensers, and drinking fountains. Direct replacement for Omnipure K5533-JJ and K5533-BB models. Compatible with most residential and light commercial RO installations requiring post-carbon filtration.
Replacement Schedule
Standard Replacement
Replace the K5540 inline carbon filter annually under typical residential use, even if the 2000 gallon capacity has not been reached
Capacity-Based Change
Track water usage if consumption is high. Replace when 2000 gallons have been filtered, whichever comes first between time and volume
Taste or Odor Return
If chlorine taste or odor returns before the scheduled replacement, change the filter immediately. Carbon saturation varies with water chemistry
NSF Tested
Performance verified under NSF Standard 42 for chlorine reduction and taste/odor improvement
Universal Fit
Standard 10 inch inline dimensions and 1/4 inch connections work with most RO and filtration systems
Coconut Carbon
Renewable coconut shell source provides high-quality activated carbon with excellent adsorption characteristics
Quick Replacement
Push-to-connect fittings allow tool-free filter changes in seconds without shutting off water supply lines
