Unicel (T-0697-10-B) 9.75"x2.75" Pleated Polypropylene 4 Sq. Ft 10 Micron Filter
High-Capacity Pleated Filtration with Flow-Max Technology
The T-0697-10-B delivers 4 square feet of cleanable, pleated polypropylene media in a compact 9.75" x 2.75" cartridge, designed for extended service life in whole house and RO pre-filtration applications.
Pleated polypropylene outperforms wound and melt-blown cartridges by providing more surface area, lower pressure drop, and longer service intervals
Four Square Feet of Media
Pleated design packs maximum filtration area into a standard 10" x 2.5" form factor, extending filter life and reducing frequency of changeouts.
Cleanable and Reusable
At 10 microns, this cartridge can be rinsed and reused multiple times, reducing consumable costs compared to disposable depth filters.
100% Synthetic Media
Cellulose-free polypropylene resists bacteria growth and contains no binders or additives that cause foaming or degradation over time.
Cyst Reduction Capable
Ideal for reducing Cryptosporidium and Giardia cysts by 99.9%, providing an additional layer of protection in sediment pre-filtration stages.
Low Pressure Drop
Pleated construction maintains flow rates better than wound or spun cartridges, preserving system pressure throughout the service cycle.
Unicel T-0697-10-B Technical Details
| Dimensions | 9.75" x 2.75" |
| Micron Rating | 10 micron nominal |
| Surface Area | 4 square feet |
| Media Type | Pleated polypropylene |
| Construction | 100% synthetic, cellulose-free |
| Reusability | Cleanable and reusable |
Standard 10-Inch Housing Fitment
The Unicel T-0697-10-B fits any standard 10-inch filter housing designed for 2.5-inch diameter cartridges. Compatible with whole house sediment filtration systems, reverse osmosis pre-filter stages, and commercial sediment applications requiring 10 micron nominal filtration. Works as a drop-in replacement for wound, spun, or melt-blown cartridges in existing housings.
Service and Replacement Schedule
Clean or Replace Cartridge
Inspect for sediment buildup. Rinse with clean water and reuse if media is intact. Replace when cleaning no longer restores flow or if media shows damage.
Monitor Pressure Drop
Track inlet vs. outlet pressure. A 10-15 PSI drop indicates it's time to clean the cartridge. Heavy sediment loads may require more frequent cleaning.
Inspect Media Integrity
Check for tears, delamination, or compressed pleats. Even cleanable cartridges eventually reach end of life and should be replaced when structural damage occurs.
Drop-In Replacement
Fits standard 10" housings without modification
Lower Operating Cost
Cleanable media reduces replacement frequency
Whole House or RO
Versatile enough for point-of-entry or pre-filtration
