Omnipure - Q5420 - 8" x 2.5" Q-Series Twist Off Carbon Block Filter - 1 Micron
Q5420 8" x 2.5" Carbon Block Filter with Twist Off System
The Omnipure Q5420 combines solid carbon block filtration with the convenience of an in-head twist valve that automatically stops water flow when you disconnect the filter body. Rated at 1 micron, this filter removes chlorine taste and odor, sediment, and cysts while maintaining a steady 0.5 GPM flow rate for up to 2000 gallons or one year of service.

What Makes the Q5420 Different
Twist Tap Valve System
In-head valve automatically shuts off water supply when you twist off the filter body. No need to close upstream valves during cartridge changes.
1 Micron Cyst Reduction
Carbon block construction rated to 1 micron removes cysts, fine sediment, and particulates while maintaining consistent flow.
Chlorine and Odor Removal
Activated carbon block media reduces chlorine taste and odor, improving water quality for drinking, ice, and beverage applications.
Multi-Application Design
Compact 8" length fits ice makers, refrigerators, under-sink systems, RO systems, drinking fountains, and beverage equipment.
Standard Q-Series Footprint
2.5" diameter and 8" length compatible with existing Q-Series filter heads. Direct replacement for Q54xx series cartridges.
Long Service Life
Up to 2000 gallons or 12 months of filtration capacity before replacement, depending on water quality and usage patterns.
System Requirements and Use Cases
The Omnipure Q5420 is a replacement cartridge designed for use with existing Q-Series filter heads. This filter requires a Q-Series head with 1/4" quick-connect fittings, 1/4" NPT female threads, or 3/8" NPT female threads. Compatible with ice makers, refrigerators, reverse osmosis pre-filtration, under-sink drinking water systems, beverage dispensers, and commercial drinking fountains. Works as a standalone inline filter or as part of a multi-stage filtration system. Replaces other Q54xx series filters in the same micron rating class.
Omnipure Q-Series filters are manufactured to NSF standards and trusted by water treatment professionals across residential and commercial applications.
