HRO 0801063057 Sediment Prefilter, 5 micron

This is a sediment prefilter element designed for use in marine reverse osmosis (RO) watermaker systems.

This filter is used as an initial pre-filtration stage to remove sand, silt, rust, and other particulate matter from incoming feed water before it reaches carbon filters or the RO membrane. Rated at 5 micron, the 0801063057 sediment prefilter captures larger particles while maintaining proper flow rates, protecting downstream filtration components and ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of the watermaker system.

This element is typically installed in HRO / Sea Recovery systems as the first line of defense against particulate contamination.

Features:

• Filter Type: Sediment prefilter element
• Application: Marine reverse osmosis (RO) watermaker systems
• Function: Removes sand, silt, rust, and other particulate matter from feed water
• Filter Stage: Initial pre-filtration stage (installed before carbon filters and RO membrane)
