PHP/AHP Micro-Carbon II Series Filter Cartridges

Granular Activated Carbon Filter
Cartridges for Liquid and Gas Applications

• One-step Activated Carbon and Nominal 3 Micron Particle Reduction Eliminates Problems Associated with Loose Carbon Treatment
• Porous, Polyethylene Outer Shell and Polypropylene End Caps
• Choice of Low Sulphur Activated Carbon or Anthracite Based Activated Carbon

Liquids

• Reduces Organics and Particulate from Plating, Acid, Alkaline and Hydrocarbon Solutions
• Chlorine Reduction from Water with Low Flow Rates
• Entire Carbon Bed Exposed to Flow While Minimizing Amount of Carbon Fines Downstream

Gas

• Reduction of Chlorine Gases, Organics Such as Oil Mist and Water Vapor, and Fine Dust and Scale Particles
• Excellent Filtering and Coalescing Properties
• Activated Carbon Absorbs Finely Dispersed Oil, Smoke Odors and Aqueous Mist that Penetrates the Shell
• Inner Layers Provide for an Excellent Air Polishing Medium

Warning: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

Note: These cartridges contain a very small amount of carbon fines (very fine black powder). After installation, flush the cartridge for a minimum of 5 minutes to remove all traces of the fines before using the water. You should run (flush) the tap at least 20 seconds prior to using water for drinking or cooking purposes. This is particularly important if the tap has not been used daily.
