RS PRO Water Filter Cartridge

From RS PRO this is a replacement carbon water filter cartridge to be used alongside the RS PRO Reverse Osmosis (RO) water filter system 1952219. The water filters are the important first of 5 stages of pre-filtration for the reverse osmosis system and are used to ensure the protection of the reverse osmosis membrane by reducing chlorine levels within the water.

The compressed carbon water filter cartridge is an important part of the Reverse Osmosis unit as it helps in providing extremely pure filtered water and assists in removing some contaminants by removing between 90 to 99% of all dissolved solids from water which is an excellent benefit to people that have health concerns. Always read the suppliers instructions when replacing the water filter cartridges to ensure maximum performance and replace according to the instructions.

The reverse osmosis water filter works by a series of pre-filters, the first of which the water be pumped through is the SW5 strung filter. This filter works to remove sediment and other particles down to the size of 5 micron. After this the water passes to allow pressure switch before going through to the booster pump. From the booster pump, it then passes through the second filter, this is the carbon filter that contains activated carbon, removing the chlorine from the water. Then the water is pumped through the third filter, the SW1 filter, which removes any particles still in the water down to a size of 1 micron. After the three stages of pre-filtration have occurred the water will then pass through the RO membrane where virtually all remaining contaminants are removed before moving on to the post-filter, which also contains activated carbon that polishes your water by removing any unwanted tastes, purification of your water is complete, and it is ready for you to drink.
