Pentek - R-Series 10" X 2.5" REUSABLE Pleated Polyester Filter
R-Series 10" × 2.5" Pleated Polyester Filter Cartridge
Washable, reusable sediment filtration with pleated polyester fabric for extended service life in residential and commercial applications
Engineered for Durability and Repeated Cleaning
Washable Polyester Media
Non-woven polyester fabric resists bacteria and chemical attack, rinses clean under water pressure for multiple reuse cycles
Pleated for Capacity
Over 4 square feet of pleated fabric maximizes dirt-holding capacity and extends time between cleaning intervals
Fused Construction
Ends immersed in vinyl plastisol fuse media, core, and cap into a single unitized assembly with integral gasket seal
Sonic Welded Seam
Overlap seam is ultrasonically welded to minimize internal bypass and improve overall filtration efficiency
Technical Details
| Models Available | R30 (30 micron), R50 (50 micron) |
| Dimensions | 2.5" diameter × 9.75" length |
| Filter Media | Non-woven pleated polyester (4+ sq ft) |
| Core Material | Polypropylene |
| End Caps | Vinyl plastisol (unitized gasket) |
| Temperature Range | 40°F to 145°F |
| Pressure Drop | 1 psi @ 10 GPM |
| Housing Compatibility | Standard 10" filter housings (2.5" cartridge) |
Fits Standard 10-Inch Housings
The Pentek R-Series cartridge fits all standard 10-inch filter housings designed for 2.5" diameter cartridges. Compatible with whole-house sediment filtration systems, pre-filtration for reverse osmosis systems, and commercial sediment removal applications. Use R30 for finer sediment or R50 for higher flow and coarser particles.
Cleaning Schedule
Inspect and Rinse
Remove cartridge from housing, rinse under high-pressure water to remove accumulated sediment, reinstall when clean
Deep Clean
Soak in approved cleaning solution if rinsing no longer restores flow, then rinse thoroughly before reinstalling
Replace Cartridge
Replace when cleaning no longer restores adequate flow rate or if media shows signs of physical damage or degradation
Cost Effective
Reusable design reduces long-term filter replacement costs compared to disposable cartridges
Chemical Resistant
Polyester media withstands exposure to chlorine and common water treatment chemicals
Multi-Application
Suitable for residential whole-house, commercial, and light industrial sediment filtration
High Flow Rate
Low 1 psi pressure drop at 10 GPM maintains system efficiency and water pressure
