Parker T15R10A String-wound Cartridge Filter 20 Micron

Product Description

The PARKER T15R10A is a string-wound polypropylene cotton cartridge filter designed for plumbing filtration systems where sediment removal is the primary requirement. At a 20-micron rating, it captures sand, silt, scale, and rust particles from supply lines before they reach downstream equipment. The cartridge measures 2.5 inches in outside diameter and 10 inches in length, fitting standard filter housings used in residential and light commercial water treatment applications. Installation is handled by plumbers and water treatment technicians. Maximum working temperature is 120 degrees F.

This cartridge is suited for cold and warm water supply filtration in residential point-of-entry systems, commercial pre-filtration stages, and inline protection ahead of water heaters, softeners, reverse osmosis units, and similar equipment. The string-wound construction provides graduated density from the outer surface inward, improving sediment-holding capacity compared to flat-depth media. The polypropylene cotton material is rated Non-FDA, making it appropriate for industrial and general-use plumbing applications rather than direct potable food-contact service.

Installation Notes

Filter cartridge replacement is typically performed by a licensed plumber or trained water treatment technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before opening the filter housing. Follow the housing manufacturer's torque guidance for the sump cap and inspect the o-ring for wear before reinstalling. Dispose of used cartridges per local waste regulations and note the installation date to track service intervals.
