Filter media: Meltblown polypropylene inner layer with outer layers of polypropylene scrim material for support
End caps: Plastisol (Pliable PVC)
Temperature: 140°F/60°C temperature limit* (*temperature limits may vary and depend on pressure and time under load)
Flow rates: Up to 6 GPM per 9-3/4" standard cartridge. For Hurricane and Big-Blue cartridges, flow rates are limited by the housing used.
Features & Benefits:
Absolute rated one micron filter media removes cyst sized particles for safe, cyst-free drinking water
Low pressure drop due to the pleated design and increased surface area
Ideal as final filters for municipal water filtration without pre-filtration required. In high turbidity water, pre-filtration is recommended using Harmsco sediment cartridges with two or three step filtration, depending on the source water.
Pleated polypropylene filter media provides more surface area for longer filter life and increased particle removal
FDA listed materials for use in potable water and liquid food applications
End caps, center tubes and media are thermally bonded as one integral component for added strength and to provide superior end sealing
Economical cartridges from the value leader in the industry!
The Jumbo HUR / HIF 170 and Harmsco HUR / HIF cartridges are interchangeable. The Flow-Max brand filters meet or exceed the specs of the Harmsco equivalents and are a better value.
