Pentek - R30-478 - 5" x 2.5" REUSABLE Pleated Polyester Sediment Filter - 30 Micron
R30-478 Pleated Polyester Filter Cartridge
5" x 2.5" reusable pleated sediment filter with 30 micron rating for residential and commercial water treatment
The Pentek R30-478 is a compact 5" x 2.5" reusable sediment filter built from durable non-woven polyester pleated around a polypropylene core. Its 30 micron rating captures sediment, rust, and particulate while remaining fully washable for extended service life. The thermo-set vinyl plastisol end caps create a unitized seal that resists bypass and improves filtration efficiency across residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Engineered for Durability and Performance
Reusable Design
Non-woven polyester media can be washed and reused multiple times, reducing replacement costs and waste.
30 Micron Filtration
Effective sediment removal for moderate particulate loads in municipal and well water sources.
Unitized Construction
Vinyl plastisol end caps fuse the media and core into a single sealed unit, preventing bypass and leakage.
Chemical Resistant
Polyester media resists bacteria growth and chemical attack, suitable for diverse water chemistry conditions.
Wide Temp Range
Rated for continuous operation from 40°F to 145°F in residential and commercial environments.
Compact Profile
5" x 2.5" cartridge fits specialized housings and tight-space installations where standard 10" filters won't fit.
