Summary

Product identification

The Pentair® Pentek® DGD Series Cartridges are gradient density filters manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene. They are designed for use in Pentair Pentek Big Blue® Filter Housings.

Key features include:

  • Designed for purity; will not impart taste, odor, or color to the filtered liquid.
  • Polypropylene construction provides superior chemical resistance and is not prone to bacterial attack.
  • Advanced design combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration.
  • Achieves up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges.
  • Effective filter depth is increased to 233%.
  • Spun fibers form a gradient density from outer to inner surfaces.
  • Suitable for residential, rural, municipal, and commercial applications.
  • Nominal micron ratings available: 1, 5, 25 micron.
  • Available lengths: 10", 20".
  • Tested and Certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for material requirements only.

Operating limits

  • Temperature Rating: 40-145°F (4.4-62.8°C)

Feed water

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