This inline coconut filter has 3/8" female NPT connections and is suitable for drinking water filtration applications. This filter has coconut shell Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filter media to reduce unpleasant taste and odor from drinking water. It has a service life of 2,500 gallons (or one year) and a flow rate of 0.5 gallons per minute (gpm). This filter has a 2" outside diameter (OD) and an overall length of 10". It has an operating temperature of 35 to 100 degrees F, and a maximum pressure rating of 125 pounds per square inch (psi). This inline coconut filter is suitable for use in water filtration applications such as ice makers, water coolers, coffee makers, and refrigerators.
Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by means 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 typically 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 flow rate, and the amount of water that can be filtered before the filter must be replaced. Water filters are used in a wide range of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.
