Pentek - ECP5-BB - 10" x 4.5" Pleated Cellulose 5 Micron Sediment Filter
Pentek ECP5-BB Filter Specifications
Materials & Construction
| Media Material | Resin-impregnated cellulose and polyester fibers |
| Core Material | Polypropylene |
| End Cap Material | Vinyl plastisol (thermo-setting) |
| End Cap Design | Unified end cap and gasket formed by immersion molding |
| Pressure Drop | 1 psi at 20 GPM |
| Model Number | ECP5-BB (Pentek 255490-43) |
| Operating Temperature | 40°F to 125°F (4.4°C to 51.7°C) |
Where This Filter Works
The Pentek ECP5-BB fits standard 10-inch Big Blue filter housings with 4.5-inch diameters. It's designed for whole house sediment filtration, well water applications, and commercial installations where high dirt-holding capacity and low pressure drop are critical. The pleated design and 18 square feet of media surface area provide significantly longer service life than non-pleated cartridges. Use this filter as a primary sediment barrier to protect downstream equipment including carbon filters, water softeners, RO membranes, and appliances. The resin-impregnated construction maintains structural integrity even when saturated, preventing media migration and cartridge collapse under flow.
