Parker WC39R30 Cartridge Filter 1 Micron 30 Inches

Product Description

The PARKER WC39R30 is a string-wound cartridge filter designed for plumbing and industrial fluid filtration applications. Built with acetate cotton winding over a tinned steel core, this filter delivers 1-micron particulate removal in a standard 30-inch length with a 2.5-inch outside diameter. The graduated string-wound construction creates a depth-filtration matrix that traps particles throughout the media rather than just at the surface, extending service life between changeouts. Rated for continuous use up to 250 degrees F, it suits hot-water and process-line installations. Licensed plumbers and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers for this filter type.

This filter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, process water lines, and pre-filtration stages in water treatment applications. The 1-micron rating makes it effective for sediment, dirt, rust, and fine particulate removal ahead of sensitive downstream components such as softeners, membranes, or precision fixtures. The 30-inch format fits standard big-blue or equivalent sump housings designed for that cartridge length. The acetate cotton media is compatible with cold and hot water service up to the rated temperature limit.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water treatment technician. Shut off the supply valve and relieve system pressure completely before opening the filter housing. Inspect the housing O-ring for wear or cracking and replace it if needed before seating the new cartridge. Follow local plumbing code requirements, including IPC guidelines, for filter installation in potable water systems.
