Pentek (Ametek) Water Filters and Housings by Pentair Water   Pentek (Ametek) Water Filters and Housings by Pentair Water

High Capacity Dirt Holding Design.

Pentair® Pentek® DGD Series Cartridges are manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene and are sized for use Big Blue Filter Housings.

DGD Series Cartridges are designed for purity and will not impart taste, odor or color to the liquid being filtered. Additionally, the polypropylene construction provides superior chemical resistance and is not prone to bacterial attack.

Pentek (Ametek) DGD Series Filters' advanced design combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration to achieve up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges and even greater capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The larger diameter of the filter reduces the particle load, allowing it to operate at higher velocities. The effective filter depth is increased to a full 233%. This increased depth provides very high particulate reduction efficiencies and added loading capacity.

The design and performance characteristics of Pentek (Ametek) DGD Series Dual Grade Filter Cartridges make them an excellent choice for all residential, rural, municipal and commercial applications.

DGD Series Dual-Gradient Density Filter Cartridges Ordering Details

Designed for purity and chemical compatibility, DGD Series filters are manufactured from pure 100% polypropylene. The larger diameter of the pre-filter reduces the particle load to the post filter, allowing it to operate at higher velocities.
