10″ x 2.5″ 5 Micron Moulded Particle/Sediment Filter Cartridge

If you’re pre-filtering tap water before it hits your pond, this is the cartridge that stops the grit before it reaches your carbon stage.

A 5 micron sediment cartridge removes fine dirt, rust and particulates, protecting your activated carbon and improving overall water quality.

Why it’s a smart first stage

• 5 micron filtration – captures fine sediment before it enters the pond
• Protects carbon media – extends the life of your activated carbon stage
• Cleaner water changes – reduces visible debris during top-ups
• Straight swap fit – standard 10″ x 2.5″ format

Where it fits

• First stage in multi-stage water purifiers
• Pre-carbon filtration in dechlorination systems
• Ideal for pond fills, water changes and top-ups

Typical setup: Mains tap → 5 micron sediment cartridge → Activated carbon stage → Pond

Maintenance

• Replace when flow reduces noticeably
• Always isolate the water supply before removing the housing
• Check housing O-ring and lubricate lightly with silicone grease if required

Regular replacement keeps chlorine-removal media working properly and prevents channeling through clogged cartridges.
