Carbon cartridges are necessary for the purification of tap water: they cope with dirt, rust, and remove unpleasant odors and taste. After using such devices, the water becomes clearer, chlorination products, excess carbon, decomposition products of humic and amino acids, as well as pesticides are “pulled out” from it. If a carbon filter is used as part of a multi-stage filter, then in addition to the listed impurities, it is capable of purifying water from bacteria, salts and metal ions.
Where is a carbon filter used?
- Ordinary apartment house. Such cartridges are common in jugs such as Aquaphor and Barrier; they are often mounted under the sink. City residents do not have the opportunity to extract clean resources from deep-water wells, so they have to consume what the water utility supplies. Often you can’t even wash with such a liquid - it dries the skin, dandruff appears, and the body begins to itch.
- In the private sector. Here water is obtained either from central pipes, or from columns, or from wells located on the very personal plot. The liquid enters the latter from underground springs, which do not flow as deep as we would like. As a result, all fertilizers from the fields, engine fuel residues, and products from factories and industry end up in the water.
- At the dachas. Wells are one of the safest methods of water supply. But what the hell is it? Dirt and debris can get into an open channel, and underground springs can mix with rainwater that has not been purified from the soil.
How often should I change the carbon cartridge?
Filtered contaminants do not disappear anywhere - they accumulate in the body of the purifier and over time serve as a platform for the development of microorganisms. A clogged cartridge has low performance and is completely ineffective compared to a new one. The operating life of each model is indicated in our catalog or operating instructions. It depends on the intensity of use. On average, such a cartridge is designed for 350-400 liters. You will receive detailed advice about this type of purifier from the operator.
To get high quality water, you need to choose the right household water purifiers. It wouldn't hurt to do comprehensive analysis liquids. It may contain various components, not only useful, but also harmful. Therefore, it is necessary to remove them as much as possible. A water purifier is used for this purpose.
The study will allow us to accurately determine what contaminants are present and in what quantities. Having such information, you can select filters for the purifier. If you are at a loss about what exactly you need, contact our specialists; qualified employees will select a set of purifier filters.
Criteria for selecting replacement filters for water purification
In addition to the hazardous substances present in the composition, the choice is also influenced by other parameters that you need to pay attention to before ordering.
When choosing replacement filters for a purifier, you need to determine what the liquid temperature will be. Almost all are designed to work in relatively cold conditions, not exceeding 40 degrees. The parameter is indicated in the accompanying documentation. If you need to select water purifier cartridges for hot water, you need to purchase special devices with a higher temperature limit.
Performance plays an important role for purifier cartridges. This is the ability to purify a certain amount per unit of time. This parameter is important for large households in need of large quantities water for cooking and drinking. One of the least productive systems are reverse osmosis systems.
Work resource matters. In order for the device to serve longer and change spare parts for water filters less often, you need to familiarize yourself with this parameter. Pay attention to the manufacturer.

Among the carbon cartridges for purifying liquids, we can highlight the BB 10” carbon cartridge. Applicable in household main filters BB 10” series for purifying source water from chlorine, organic substances, pesticides, unpleasant taste and odor. It has the following properties:
- The throughput of the cartridge is 12 liters per minute.
- The total volume of filtration capabilities is up to 18 thousand liters.
- The service life of the device is no more than 6 months from the date of use.
- The recommended temperature of the cleaning fluid is no more than 45°C.
The cartridge is able to remove chlorine-containing substances and particles of heavy metals from the liquid and disinfect it from bacteria contained, preventing their further reproduction. The filter part retains these impurities, improving the quality of the purified water.
The materials used in the production of the cartridge are environmentally friendly and approved by international organizations, having an NSF International certificate. The BB 10” carbon cartridge is designed in such a way that all liquid entering the cleaning system completely passes through the cartridge, remaining in the filter part for quite a long time. Activated carbon quickly disinfects liquids, trapping impurities contained in water.
The BB 10” carbon cartridge has a special post-filter that prevents the presence of carbon residues in the purified liquid that participated in the primary filtration. And the expander built into this device directs all water flows directly into the filter, preventing water from bypassing the cartridge.
This device should be protected from severe frosts and freezing, and it is also not recommended to clean liquid that is not initially suitable for drinking or use in production. Before you start using the new filter part, you should wash it under running water. Length: 25.4 cm.
