Pentek - EPM-20 - 20" x 2.5" Modified Epsilon Carbon-Briquette 10 Micron Filter

Pentek EPM Series

EPM-20 Modified Epsilon Carbon Block Filter

20" x 2.5" carbon-briquette cartridge with Endurawrap pre-filter for extended service life and chlorine reduction
10 Micron Nominal 6,000 Gallon Capacity FDA Compliant Materials Whole House & Well Compatible
The Pentek EPM-20 uses a patented bonded powdered activated carbon (PAC) process that balances chlorine adsorption with high flow rates and sediment filtration. The Endurawrap polyolefin pre-filter captures sediment before it can plug the carbon block, helping the cartridge reach its full 6,000-gallon capacity without premature pressure loss.
HOW IT WORKS

Three-Layer Filtration Design

1
WRAP

Endurawrap Pre-Filtration

Polyolefin bilaminate outer wrap traps sediment and particulates before they reach the carbon block, preventing premature clogging and extending cartridge life in high-sediment applications.

2
CARBON

Modified Epsilon Carbon Block

High-porosity bonded PAC core provides nominal 10-micron filtration while reducing chlorine taste and odor. The open structure maintains low pressure drop even as the cartridge loads with contaminants.

3
POLISH

Final Filtration Stage

Polyethylene netting support and polypropylene end caps ensure structural integrity under pressure while maintaining consistent water quality throughout the full service life.

Service life: 6,000 gallons

COMPATIBILITY

Where It Fits

The EPM-20 fits standard 20-inch filter housings with 2.5-inch diameter cartridge capacity. It works in whole-house systems, well water applications, food service installations, and commercial or industrial settings where chlorine taste and odor reduction is needed alongside sediment filtration. The high-porosity design makes it particularly well-suited for municipal water sources with moderate sediment loads, and the FDA-compliant construction meets requirements for potable water contact in residential and commercial applications.
