EPM Series Modified Epsilon Carbon-Briquette Cartridges
- Nominal 10-micron rating
- Highest carbon block dirt holding capacity for maximum cartridge life
- Bad taste & odor and chlorine taste & odor reduction
- Lowest pressure drop
- Economically priced
EPM Series cartridges are a modified version of our "EP Series" cartridge. An economical price makes this cartridge suitable for taste, odor and chlorine taste & odor reduction, as well as sediment filtration.
EPM Series cartridge are manufactured using a patented process that yields a cartridge with a nominal 10-micron filtration rating, high porosity and chlorine taste & odor reduction. The high porosity design helps prevent the cartridge from plugging before its adsorption capability is exhausted, maximizing the utilization of the carbon while maintaining low pressure drop.
These cartridges are protected by EndurawrapTM, a uniquely formulated polyolefin bilaminate pre-filter, designed to significantly increase the useful life of the cartridge by trapping sediment that typically plugs carbon block cartridges.
EPM Series cartridges are manufactured entirely from FDA-compliant materials making them an ideal choice for a wide range of residential, food service, commercial and industrial applications.
