Pentek 150576 3/4″ #20 3G Blue Filter Housing with Bracket and Meter Mount

This Pentek 150576 3/4″ #20 3G blue filter housing with integrated mounting bracket and pressure relief is suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The sump and cap are made of reinforced polypropylene for strength and resistance to chemicals. The cap has 3/4″ female National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) threaded input and output connections and a nitrile butadiene rubber (Buna-N) O-ring to verify a watertight seal. A pressure relief button on the inlet side of the cap releases pressure in the housing for changing filter cartridges. The cap has a meter mount for attaching a differential pressure gauge (sold one after the other). The housing can be utilized with a 20″ x 2-1/2″ sediment or carbon filter cartridge (sold one after the other). It has an initial pressure drop of 1 pound per square inch (psi) at a go with the flow rate of 10 gallons per minute (gpm), a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi, and a maximum operating temperature of 125 degrees F (51.7 degrees C). This filter housing is for use in more than a few applications, including residential drinking water filtration, food service, and humidifying systems, among others.

Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by way of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They are made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems in most cases consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to remove different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that is blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum go with the flow rate, and the amount of water that may be filtered before the filter should be replaced. Water filters are used in quite a lot of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.
