RAH Big Stainless Steel Cartridge 90 Micron (RA5001020)

RAH Big Stainless Steel Cartridge 90 Micron – RA5001020 The RAH Big Stainless Steel Cartridge 90 Micron (RA5001020) is a durable, reusable filter cartridge designed for use with Atlas Filtri HYDRA BIG self-cleaning filter housings. Featuring a robust stainless steel filtration net with a 90 micron nominal filtration rating, it provides effective mechanical filtration of suspended solids and particulate matter from water. Designed for high-flow point-of-entry applications, the RAH cartridge is ideal for protecting downstream pipework, equipment and water treatment systems from larger particles such as sand, grit, rust and sediment. Reusable Stainless Steel Filtration Unlike disposable sediment cartridges, the RAH cartridge uses a stainless steel net which can be repeatedly cleaned and reused. When installed within a HYDRA BIG housing, the cartridge forms part of the system's self-cleaning backwash process. Cleaning is quick and straightforward. Opening the drain valve at the bottom of the HYDRA BIG creates a reversal of water flow through the cartridge, helping to dislodge accumulated impurities and discharge them from the filter. The integrated discharge arrangement is designed to prevent expelled water from flowing back into the system. Key Features Product Code: RA5001020 Cartridge Type: RAH stainless steel net cartridge Nominal Filtration: 90 micron Reusable: Yes – designed for cleaning and continued use Compatible With: Atlas Filtri HYDRA BIG self-cleaning filters Application: Mechanical removal of suspended particulate matter Minimum Flow for Effective Backwashing: 2,000 litres/hour (approximately 33.3 L/min) Suitable for point-of-entry cold water filtration Designed for HYDRA BIG Self-Cleaning Filters The RAH stainless steel cartridge is specifically designed to work with the HYDRA BIG range, providing a practical solution where regular sediment loading would make frequent replacement of disposable cartridges inconvenient or expensive. The HYDRA BIG range is designed for high-flow applications and operates at working pressures between 1.8 and 8.3 bar, with a working temperature range of 4°C to 45°C. The 90 micron RAH cartridge can be used within HYDRA BIG configurations rated up to 6,000 LPH with 1" connections or 15,000 LPH with 1½" connections, depending on the specific housing model. Typical Applications The RAH Big 90 Micron cartridge is particularly suited to: Whole-house and point-of-entry sediment filtration Pre-filtration before finer cartridge filters Protection of pumps and downstream water treatment equipment Removal of sand, grit, rust particles and other suspended solids Borehole, well and private water supply pre-filtration Commercial and higher-flow water filtration systems Why Choose a 90 Micron Stainless Steel Cartridge? A 90 micron filter provides relatively coarse filtration, making it particularly useful as the first stage of a water treatment system. It captures larger particulate contamination while allowing higher flow rates and reducing the likelihood of rapid blockage compared with finer filtration. The reusable stainless steel construction also makes the RA5001020 an excellent choice for applications with regular sediment loading, particularly when paired with the HYDRA BIG's convenient self-cleaning backwash system. Please Note: For effective backwashing of RAH cartridges, Atlas Filtri specifies a minimum flow rate of 2,000 LPH.
