SDC-45-2001
The Filters Fast® FFDG-20BB-1 Replacement for Hydronix SDC-45-2001 Sediment Water Filter - 1 Micron is a 100% polypropylene filter that contains graded density that provides higher dirt holding capacity than standard spun polypropylene and string wound cartridges. The Filters Fast® FFDG-20BB-1 water filter reduces waterborne contaminants like sand, silt, sediment and rust. The 20" sediment filter replacement is resistant to chemicals and is best for residential, commercial, food service and industrial applications. Constructed with a coreless design, the Filters Fast® FFDG-20BB-1 is surfactant free, adhesive free and binder free. The true multi-stage depth filtration of this cartridge is ideal for residential, industrial, commercial and food service applications. The 20" Sediment Filter uses 4 separate layers of micron filtration, as the outside-in flow allows the outer layer to trap larger sized particles. This 1 micron filter is an inexpensive solution to pre-filtration for reverse osmosis systems and post-filtration for granular activated carbon filters (also known as GAC filters). Do not use this filter with water that is of unknown quality or microbiologically unsafe without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
