The Enpress ONE CT-2010 (Enpress model CT-20x10) is an Orange Filtration Series cartridge for the Enpress ONE Cartridge Tank: a dual-gradient double-pleated filter with a 20-micron pleated pre-filter wrapped around a 10-micron pleated inner filter. Pleats give it far more surface than a wound or depth cartridge of the same size, which is what Enpress means by “low pressure drop = high flow”, and the two gradients extend service life and dirt-holding capacity.
Fits our NFS-HF Cartridge Tank Filtration System (residential / light-commercial configuration).

How it is built
- Two pleated gradients — the 20-micron outer pleat takes the bulk of the load so the 10-micron inner pleat runs longer.
- Polyester media, polypropylene caps — durable, bacteria and chemical resistant.
- Double Buna-N o-rings and belly bands — no bypass, no collapse under load.
- 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.
Flush a new cartridge before use. Run water to drain until it runs clear before putting the system into service. Enpress recommends a drain on the outlet side of the Cartridge Tank for this.
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
Residential, food service, rental-fleet, commercial and industrial sediment duty: make-up water, RO pre-filtration, cooling towers, chilled-water loops, and metal-finishing process water with turbidity, particulate or colloidal suspensions. Enpress does not publish a flow rating for this series, so tell us your flow and we will confirm the sizing.
