Watts-FPP-5-10-222 Flow-Max HP Series Pleated Sediment Filter, 10 IN x 2.5 IN With 222/Flat End Cap, 5 Micron
Watts FPP-5-10-222 Technical Details
| Model Number | Watts FPP-5-10-222 |
| Dimensions | 10 inches x 2.5 inches |
| Micron Rating | 5 micron (99.98% efficiency) |
| Media Type | 100% polypropylene pleated synthetic |
| End Cap Style | 222/Flat end cap configuration |
| Temperature Range | 40°F to 175°F (4.4°C to 79.4°C) |
| Max Pressure Differential | 130 psiD collapse, 35 psiD change-out |
| Compliance | FDA 174.5, 177.1520, 177.1630 (food contact) |
Filter Replacement Procedure
- Shut off water supply and depressurize the system by opening a downstream faucet before removing the filter housing sump
- Remove the old cartridge and inspect the housing o-ring for wear or damage, replacing if necessary with food-grade silicone lubricant applied
- Insert the Watts FPP-5-10-222 cartridge into the Flow-Max housing, ensuring the 222/flat end caps are properly seated at both ends
- Hand-tighten the housing sump, restore water pressure slowly, and check for leaks around the housing cap seal
- Monitor pressure differential and replace the cartridge when flow decreases noticeably or pressure differential reaches 35 psiD
System Requirements
The Watts FPP-5-10-222 is designed specifically for Flow-Max filter housings that accommodate 10 x 2.5 inch cartridges with 222/flat end cap configurations. Compatible with whole-house filtration systems, reverse osmosis pre-filtration stages, and food and beverage processing applications where FDA-compliant materials are required. The pleated construction provides significantly greater surface area than wound or spun sediment filters, resulting in lower pressure drop and longer intervals between filter changes. This cartridge is suitable for well water, municipal water, and commercial applications requiring reliable 5 micron sediment removal.
