Description

The Premiere AMF-SDR5 is the ideal replacement water filter cartridge for water filter housings requiring a ~10″ x 2.5″ water filter cartridge such as the Aqua Pure AP101T, AP11T, AP102T, AP1610SS, or AP2610SS. It’s a premium cartridge that removes sediment from the water and contains genuine Siliphos®, a corrosion and scale inhibitor. A water filter cartridge with scale inhibitor protects equipment such as booster heaters, hot water heaters, steamers, tankless water heaters, and ice machines, as well as plumbing connections, pipes, and appliances. Scale inhibitor stops scale from forming and helps remove existing scale deposits.

Features

  • Premium 5 micron water filter cartridge with scale inhibitor to protect plumbing connections, pipes, and appliances
  • Siliphos ® scale control product prevents scale and stops corrosion. It works by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface to inhibit the deposition of scale and corrosion on your tankless water heater
  • This scale control water filter cartridge protects scale on pipes and plumbing connections, and equipment such as booster heaters, hot water heaters, steamers, tankless water heaters, and ice machines
  • Easily monitor the amount of scale inhibitor cartridge in cartridge
  • Rigid construction with 34 deep grooves. The deep grooves increase surface area, enhance contaminant holding capacity, and promote fuller utilization of the depth-matrix for fewer cartridge change outs
  • Other alternatives on the market may only have 20 grooves so more grooves on the AMF-SDR5 means greater surface area and higher filtration capabilities by trapping various sized particles layer by layer
  • Grooved design increases surface area by 132% and extends the water filter cartridge life— lasts 30% longer than non-grooved cartridges. Increases water filtration efficiency by 50% too
  • Reduces unloading at high differential pressure
  • Up to 10 times or more the life of other filters
  • Benefits are reduced water and energy costs, increased equipment performance, reduced equipment maintenance and/or replacement costs and downtime
  • Protect your investment with our water scale inhibitor products
  • Made without adhesives, binders, surfactants or lubricants for compatibility in a wide range of applications and operating conditions
  • The differences between our tankless water heater filter cartridge and other suppliers is the 5 micron absolute rating, deep grooves, and use of the most effective scale control formula Don’t settle for inferior cartridges with no track record!
  • Protect your investment — Premiere Sales is the original supplier of this enhanced product for water scale protection
  • With over 30 years experience and thousands of systems in the field, this product is the most recommended by boiler, water heater, and tankless water heater manufacturers

Specifications

  • Micron rating: 5 micron
  • Flow rate: 8 gallons per minute
  • Size: 2.58″ D x 9.78″ L (fits housings calling for ~2.5″ x 10″ open-ended, drop-in style water filter cartridge)

Filtration Process

Mechanical - A physical barrier traps particles to remove them from water.

Adsorption - Traps particles and some dissolved contaminants through physical and chemical interactions.

Ultrafiltration - Removes ultrafine particles and bacteria.

Multi-stage - Multiple filter stages that target specific contaminants.

Reverse Osmosis - Removes all contaminants to produce pure water.

Alkaline - Increases alkalinity (pH) and antioxidant level.

Mechanical
Type of Filter

Activated Carbon Block - Removes chlorine, organic compounds, and other contaminants from water.

Catalytic Carbon - Removes chloramines and some heavy metals; more effective chlorine and organic compound removal than activated carbon block filters.

Anti Scale - Prevents hard water scale and corrosion.

Sediment - Removes suspended particles such as sand, dirt, rust, and sediment from water.

Pleated - Removes bacteria, viruses, ultrafine particles, and other contaminants from water.

Granular Activated Carbon - Removes chlorine and some other contaminants; less effective particulate filtration compared to carbon block filters.
