Valuetrex - VX Series - 20" x 4.5" Poly Spun Filter - Sediment Cartridge
20" x 4.5" Polypropylene Spun Sediment Filter
Four-layer meltblown construction for reliable sediment removal in whole house, well, and commercial filtration systems
The Valuetrex VX Series sediment filter uses a four-layer polypropylene structure to capture sand, silt, rust, and scale before they reach your reverse osmosis membrane, carbon block, or UV system. Manufactured to fit standard 20" x 4.5" housings, this meltblown cartridge handles municipal and well water applications with flow rates between 7-10 gallons per minute. Essential as a pre-filter for UV systems, where sediment can shield bacteria from ultraviolet exposure and compromise disinfection.

Where This Filter Works
The Valuetrex VX Series 20" x 4.5" sediment cartridge fits any standard big blue housing designed for 20-inch filters with a 4.5-inch outer diameter. Common applications include whole house water filtration, well water pre-treatment, commercial reverse osmosis systems, and as a required pre-filter stage before UV disinfection units. Compatible with filter housings from major brands including Pentek, Culligan, iSpring, Hydronix, and generic 20" x 4.5" canisters. Use 1 micron for polishing applications, 5 micron for general sediment reduction, 10 micron for moderate sediment loads, or 25 micron for heavy particulate in well water.
Valuetrex manufactures sediment filters to OEM specifications with consistent quality control and third-party certification, trusted by water treatment professionals for residential, commercial, and industrial installations.
