2 Clear Big Blue Housings · Washable Screen · PP Spun

Two-Stage Protection at Apartment and Estate Inlets with the Industrial Sediment Filter

The Industrial Sediment Filter 20 inch is a two-stage sediment filter set fitted to the main water line at apartment block, housing estate and building inlets. The set contains two 20 inch clear Big Blue filter housings, a washable mesh screen cartridge and a PP spun sediment cartridge. The washable screen in the first stage holds back coarse particles such as sand and rust, and the spun cartridge in the second stage captures finer sediment. In this way the sand, rust and sediment in the water entering the building are held back at the inlet before they reach the plumbing, fittings, softeners and household appliances.

01Problem & Solution

Sediment Builds Up in the Building’s Plumbing

Problem

Sand and Rust Are Carried to Every Flat

Repairs on mains lines, old pipes and water storage tanks mix sand, rust and silt into the water. Because all of the building’s water passes through a single inlet, these particles reach every flat: aerators and shower heads clog, and the inlet strainers of washing machines and dishwashers fill up. Softening and treatment units on the line also wear out faster under the sediment load.

Solution

Two-Stage Sediment Capture at the Inlet

The Industrial Sediment Filter screens the water in two stages at the point where it enters the building. The washable screen holds back coarse particles up front and, when dirty, is washed and refitted; the PP spun cartridge then captures the remaining fine sediment. Because the coarse load stays up front, the spun cartridge fills more slowly, and the plumbing and appliances are protected from a single point.

02Key Features

Two Housings, Two Cartridges, One Line

The Industrial Sediment Filter set is designed to hold back coarse and fine sediment in separate stages.

Two-Stage Filtration

Coarse and fine sediment are held in separate cartridges; because the load is split across two stages, the fine cartridge does not fill early with coarse particles.

Washable Mesh Screen

The screen cartridge in the first stage holds sand, rust and silt on its surface; when it fills, it is taken out of the housing, washed with water and reused.

PP Spun Sediment Cartridge

Made of polypropylene fibre, the spun cartridge captures in its fibre layers the fine particles that pass the screen; when it fills, it is replaced with a new one.

Clear Big Blue Housings

Thanks to the purple-tinted clear body, how dirty the cartridges are can be seen without opening the housing, so washing and replacement times can be followed by eye.

1 Inch Inlet and Outlet

The 1 inch threaded connection ports on the black head match the common pipe size of estate and building main lines.

Red Air Release Button

The red button on the head of each housing makes it easier to release the pressure inside the housing before a cartridge change and to bleed air while the housing fills.

05How It Works

How Does the Industrial Sediment Filter Work?

The Industrial Sediment Filter works on the principle of mechanical filtration, passing the water through two filter media in turn: line pressure pushes the water from the outer surface of the cartridge towards the central core, and the suspended particles remain in the filter medium. The need to clean or replace the cartridge once the flow drops noticeably is explained in the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s guide to sediment filtration.

  1. Water Enters the First Housing

    Water from the main line enters the first clear Big Blue housing on the inlet side through the 1 inch connection port and fills the space around the cartridge.

  2. The Screen Holds Back Coarse Particles

    Through the openings of the washable cartridge’s cage, the water reaches the mesh screen; coarse particles such as sand, rust and silt remain on the screen surface.

  3. It Passes to the Second Housing

    The water filtered by the screen leaves through the central core of the cartridge to the outlet port, and from there it is carried to the second housing.

  4. The Spun Cartridge Captures Fine Sediment

    As the water moves from the outer surface of the PP spun cartridge towards the centre, fine particles that escaped the screen are held in the polypropylene fibre layers.

  5. Filtered Water Is Distributed Through the Plumbing

    With its sediment removed, the water is carried to the building’s distribution line and, if present, to softening, carbon or reverse osmosis units.

06Making the Right Choice

Is the Industrial Sediment Filter Right for Your Building?

When choosing the Industrial Sediment Filter, the source of the problem, the sediment load, the line diameter and the installation space should be assessed together.

Source of the Problem

If sand and rust are building up in aerators, shower heads and appliance strainers, the set addresses this problem directly. Limescale, chlorine or odour problems require a separate stage.

Line Diameter

The inlet and outlet of the housings are 1 inch; if the main line is a different diameter, the connection is made with suitable reducers.

Sediment Load

With sandy sources such as well and borehole water the screen fills often; the washable first stage makes the biggest difference with these sources.

Installation Space

20 inch housings have long bodies and need clearance below for cartridge changes. The clear bodies should be installed at a point out of direct sunlight; light can speed up algae growth inside the housing.

07Maintenance and Use

Washing and Replacement Notes

The Industrial Sediment Filter keeps performing with regular maintenance of its two cartridges.

  • Before a housing is opened, the inlet valve should be closed and the pressure inside the housing then released by pressing the red air release button on the head.
  • The screen cartridge should be washed under running water; a hard brush, a sharp tool or a very high-pressure water jet that could damage the screen should not be used.
  • The PP spun cartridge is not washable; when it is full, do not try to clean it but replace it with a new one. The cartridges are consumables and their life depends on the sediment load of the water.
  • A noticeable drop in flow at the taps, or a darkening of the cartridge surface seen through the clear housing, shows that it is time to wash or replace it.
  • Check the housing seal every time it is opened; after the housing is closed and the valve opened, bleed the air with the air release button and check the connections for leaks.

08Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

What does the Industrial Sediment Filter do?
It is fitted to the main water line at apartment block, housing estate and building inlets and holds back the sand, rust, silt and sediment carried by the water in two stages. The washable screen captures coarse particles and the PP spun cartridge fine sediment; the plumbing, fittings, household appliances and other treatment units on the line are protected from the sediment load.
Why are the cartridges in two separate housings?
Loading coarse and fine sediment onto the same cartridge makes the fine cartridge clog quickly. The washable screen in front takes the coarse load; the spun cartridge behind it meets only fine particles and fills more slowly.
Does it remove limescale, chlorine or odour?
No. The set is a mechanical sediment filter; limescale, salts and chlorine dissolved in the water pass through the cartridges. Activated carbon should be installed for chlorine and odour, a water softener for limescale, and a reverse osmosis stage for dissolved salts.
Does it make the water drinkable?
No. The Industrial Sediment Filter holds back sand, rust and sediment in utility water; it does not treat water to drinking water standards. A separate reverse osmosis unit is needed for drinking water.
When should the cartridges be washed or replaced?
There is no fixed interval; it is determined by the amount of sediment the water carries. The build-up on the cartridge surface can be seen from outside through the clear housing. When the flow at the taps drops noticeably, the screen is washed and the spun cartridge is replaced with a new one.
What can be used as replacement cartridges?
The 20 inch 5 Micron Big Blue Cartridge Filter can replace the spun cartridge, and the 20 inch Big Blue Washable Filter the screen cartridge. When choosing a washable cartridge, check the end cap design of the cartridge in the housing.
