The Enpress ONE CT-MEDIA05 is the White Filtration Series refillable cartridge for the Enpress ONE Cartridge Tank: an empty 0.5 cubic foot bottle you fill with the granular media the job needs — carbon, resin, KDF, calcite, mixed-bed DI or anything else — and refill when it is spent. Enpress’s patented Vortech® full distributor plate spreads the water across the whole media bed, so the bed is used evenly at full service flow whether you run it up-flow or down-flow.
Fits our NFS-HF Cartridge Tank Filtration System (residential / light-commercial configuration).

How it is built
- Vortech® distributor plate — the same full-plate distribution Enpress uses in its media tanks, here at cartridge scale, so a small bed still sees even flow.
- Two-section bottle — opens for filling and emptying; the optional mid plate turns it into two 0.25 ft³ chambers for layered media.
- Hanging rings on the base — hang it for a clean change-out, the way service-DI exchange cartridges are handled.
- Handle top cap for lightweight removal, and a double o-ring base that seats in the Cartridge Tank plumbing adapter — lift out, drop in, no tools.
Media is not included. Rinse or backwash the loaded media per its own instructions before service, and flush to drain until the water runs clear.
Not a disinfection device. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Where it is used
Service deionisation and exchange programmes, rental fleets, point-of-entry treatment on city or well water with a media of your choosing, and high-purity pre- or post-filtration. It turns the Cartridge Tank into a small media vessel whose bed you control.
