Darlly 20-Inch Slimline Meltblown Sediment Filter Cartridge – 100 Micron

The Darlly-branded 20-inch Slimline 100 micron meltblown polypropylene cartridge is a depth sediment filter for standard 20-inch Slimline housings. It reduces suspended particles such as sand, silt, rust flakes and other visible debris, helping to protect downstream filtration and water-treatment equipment. This 100 micron model is best suited to: very coarse prefiltration of larger debris before finer sediment treatment. Key Features Meltblown polypropylene depth-filtration media Reduces suspended sediment without adding taste or odour to the water Helps protect carbon filters, softeners, reverse-osmosis systems, pumps and UV systems from particulate loading Disposable cartridge design for straightforward maintenance Quantity: 1 cartridge Darlly Construction Polypropylene fibres are thermally fused without chemical glues Graded-density depth structure traps particles through the cartridge rather than only on the surface Designed for good dirt-holding capacity with a low initial pressure drop Suitable for sediment prefiltration in domestic, commercial and process-water applications Specifications SKU: H2OW64 Range: Darlly Cartridge format: Slimline Nominal size: 20-inch (508 mm nominal) Approximate outside diameter: 63 mm Micron rating: 100 micron Filter media: Meltblown polypropylene Compatible housing: standard 20-inch Slimline Understanding Micron Ratings A smaller micron number provides finer particle filtration but may block sooner where sediment levels are high 0.5–1 micron: fine sediment polishing, normally after coarser prefiltration 5 micron: a popular general-purpose choice for domestic sediment filtration 10–20 micron: medium prefiltration that balances particle removal and flow 50–100 micron: coarse prefiltration for larger suspended particles and heavier sediment loads Micron rating describes particle filtration; it does not indicate removal of dissolved substances Common Uses Domestic point-of-use and whole-house sediment filtration Borehole, wellpoint and rainwater prefiltration where suspended sediment is present Prefiltration before carbon, softening, reverse osmosis or ultraviolet treatment Reducing visible sand, silt, rust flakes and particulate matter Installation and Replacement Confirm the housing length and diameter before ordering; Slimline and Big Blue cartridges are not interchangeable Shut off the water supply and depressurise the housing before opening it Replace the cartridge when flow reduces, differential pressure rises or sediment begins to pass through Replacement frequency depends on water quality, water consumption and the sediment load Important Information This cartridge filters suspended particles only It does not remove dissolved salts or TDS, and it does not disinfect microbiologically unsafe water Use appropriate additional treatment where chemical or microbiological contamination is present
