Pentek - PD-Series 20" x 2.5" Polydepth Sediment Filter
20" x 2.5" Polydepth Sediment Filter Cartridge
Available Models & Performance Data
| Model Number | Micron Rating | Dimensions | Pressure Drop |
|---|---|---|---|
| PD-1-20 | 1 Micron (Nominal) | 20" x 2.5" | 2 psi @ 5 GPM |
| PD-5-20 | 5 Micron (Nominal) | 20" x 2.5" | 2 psi @ 5 GPM |
| PD-10-20 | 10 Micron (Nominal) | 20" x 2.5" | 2 psi @ 5 GPM |
| PD-25-20 | 25 Micron (Nominal) | 20" x 2.5" | 2 psi @ 5 GPM |
Why Thermal Bonding Matters
Unlike resin-bonded cartridges that become brittle over time, the Pentek Polydepth filter uses heat fusion to bond polypropylene microfibers without adhesives or binders. This meltblown construction eliminates fiber migration into your water, maintains consistent flow characteristics throughout the service life, and resists chemical degradation and bacterial colonization. The rigid polypropylene core prevents collapse under pressure differentials common in well water and whole-house systems. Micro-groove channels molded into the surface increase dirt-holding capacity without adding pressure drop.
Housing & Application Requirements
The PD-Series 20" x 2.5" cartridge fits all standard 20-inch filter housings with 2.5-inch outer diameter capacity. Commonly used in whole-house filtration systems, well water pretreatment, food and beverage processing, and as sediment prefiltration ahead of carbon blocks or reverse osmosis membranes. Chemical resistance to most acids, alkalis, and organic solvents makes this cartridge suitable for industrial process water and laboratory applications where taste, odor, and color transfer are unacceptable.
