Parker 15R30S Cartridge Filter 20 Micron 30 Inch Cotton

Product Description

The PARKER 15R30S is a string-wound cartridge filter designed for plumbing and water filtration applications. It features a 20-micron rating for removing sediment, dirt, rust, and particulate from potable and process water lines. The cotton wound construction over a stainless steel core provides consistent depth filtration across the full 30-inch length. Rated for water temperatures up to 250 degrees F, this filter is suitable for hot and cold water service. The FDA-grade cotton media meets material requirements for food, beverage, and potable water systems. Plumbing and water treatment professionals install this filter in standard housings sized for 2.5-inch OD cartridges.

The 15R30S is used in residential and light commercial water treatment systems, point-of-entry sediment filtration, and industrial process water lines. Its 30-inch length and 2.5-inch OD make it a common fit for big blue and equivalent jumbo filter housings. Typical applications include pre-filtration before water softeners, reverse osmosis systems, and other downstream treatment equipment. The 20-micron rating handles general sediment loads in municipal and well water supplies.
