GAC Radial Flow Aries Cartridges, 4.5" x 20", White, (Case of 4) with ResinTech ® AGC50-AW / AGC40-AW (ANSI / NSF 61 Certified)

Carbon Cartridges

Aries FilterWorks Radial Flow Cartridges are designed to effectively reduce chlorine and improve taste and odor for high flow, low pressure, point-of-entry and other high flow residential and commercial applications. Unlike axial flow cartridges that generate extreme levels of head pressure causing system failures, the radial flow will generate lower pressure drop under high flow conditions.

Aries RC Series cartridges are radial flow (water flows from outside into core) and are available in 4 ½” diameter, 10” or 20” lengths to fit standard residential and industrial housings. Aries RC Series cartridges are designed with a porous, polypro, 90 micron outer shell and a 25 micron inner spiral wound core. Aries RC cartridges are filled with premium ResinTech High Capacity Granular Activated Carbon which has been pH stabilized with and acid wash rinse. The end caps of the Aries cartridge incorporate a special scalloped design to insure optimum flow distribution. All components are made of FDA approved materials for drinking water applications.

California Prop 65 compliance ensures each lot of media complies with EPA recommended levels of contaminants, including arsenic.

About Carbon
Activated carbon has remarkable absorptive properties, which makes it effective in removing chlorine, sediment and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). The Carbon particles have a large surface area, allowing a small amount of carbon to efficiently filter large volumes of water. As water passes through the carbon filter many chemicals and contaminants in the water are bonded at a molecular level to the carbon, effectively removing them from the water. A large percentage of chemical compounds and organic contaminants, that cause taste and odor problems are removed by carbon.

ResinTech AGC-50 is a bituminous coal based, premium grade, granular activated carbon with a size range of 20 to 50 mesh. AGC-50 has large pores and high capacity for large organic molecules. AGC-50 is intended for applications where the highest possible surface area and adsorption rates are needed.

ResinTech AGC-40 is a bituminous coal based, premium grade, granular activated carbon with a size range of 12 to 40 mesh. AGC-40 has large pores and high capacity for large organic molecules. AGC-40 is intended for all general purpose applications where high adsorption efficiency is desired.
