Product Description

PL0.5-20 0.5 Micron 20" Pleated Polyester Sediment Filter

The PL0.5-20 is a high-efficiency, 20-inch pleated sediment filter designed for users who require finer filtration without sacrificing flow rate. With a 0.5-micron rating and 90% efficiency, this cartridge is the professional choice for removing microscopic particulates, fine silt, and rust from larger-scale water systems. The extended 20-inch length offers double the surface area of standard 10-inch filters, resulting in a significantly longer service life and higher sediment-holding capacity. Built with a robust polypropylene core and gasket-free vinyl plastisol end-caps, the PL0.5-20 is engineered for reliable, bypass-free performance in demanding borehole and industrial applications.

Why Choose the 20" Pleated Format?

  • Double the Capacity: The 20-inch length provides 2x the filtration media of standard 10-inch filters, reducing the frequency of maintenance cycles.

  • Ultra-Fine Precision: 0.5-micron efficiency ensures superior removal of fine sediment, protecting sensitive downstream equipment like reverse osmosis membranes and UV lamps.

  • Optimized Flow: The pleated design supports flow rates up to 50 lpm, ensuring consistent pressure for commercial and large residential systems.

  • Durable & Chemical Resistant: Resilient polyester media makes this filter suitable for diverse applications, including aggressive chemicals and untreated water sources.

If you are unsure whether your item qualifies for return, please contact our team before sending anything back and we’ll be happy to help.

A 20-inch filter provides twice the surface area of a 10-inch filter, which means it can hold twice as much sediment before needing replacement. This significantly reduces maintenance time and ensures more consistent flow rates for larger water systems.

A 0.5-micron filter is ideal if you need high-purity water for sensitive equipment or if your incoming water has very fine sediment. However, because it is very fine, it may clog quickly if your water has heavy, coarse sediment. We recommend using a coarser "pre-filter" (such as a 20 or 50-micron stage) if your water is highly turbid.
