Parker 15R30A String-wound Cartridge Filter 20 Micron

Product Description

The PARKER 15R30A is a string-wound plumbing cartridge filter designed for sediment removal in commercial and residential water filtration systems. Wound from FDA-grade cotton over a polypropylene core, this filter measures 2.5 inches in outside diameter and 30 inches in length, with a 20-micron rating that captures fine particulate before it reaches downstream fixtures, valves, or equipment. Rated for a maximum working temperature of 120 degrees F, it suits cold- and warm-water supply applications handled by licensed plumbers and water treatment technicians.

This filter is suited for standard cartridge filter housings in potable water, process water, and light industrial supply lines. Its 20-micron cotton media targets sediment, sand, rust, and scale particles common in municipal and well-water supplies. The string-wound construction provides graduated density from the outer wrap to the polypropylene core, which helps extend service life by loading particulate progressively rather than surface-only filtration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or water treatment technician. Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure before opening the filter housing. Inspect the housing o-ring and sump threads before seating the new cartridge, and do not overtighten the housing cap. Follow applicable local plumbing codes and the housing manufacturer guidelines for service intervals.
