  • Omnipure Q5540 Q-Series Coconut GAC Water Filter:
  • The Omnipure Q5540 acid washed coconut GAC filter is very "user friendly".
  • Replacement of the spent media bed is done quickly by detaching the filter body from a permanent head with a twist of the wrist.
  • The new Q5540 filter body is just as easily threaded into the head and the replacement is then complete.
  • The Omnipure Q5540 is also available with the optional Twist Tap in-head valve system, which automatically turns the supply water off when the body is disconnected from the head.
  • The Omnipure Q5540 Water Filter can be used in ice makers, refrigerators, beverage equipment, drinking fountains, under the sink systems, and reverse osmosis systems.
  • The Omnipure Q5540 GAC water filter is a coconut shell granular activated carbon filter used to reduce taste, odor and chlorine taste and odor.
We do not stock the Q5540 filter. Email customerservice@waterfilters.net or call 1-888-801-7873 if you would like to special order the Q5540. An alternative option is the Q5640 filter below. The Q5640 is a 12" version of the Q5540 filter. The Q5640 has the same contaminant reduction as the Q5540. If you need a 10" filter, the Q5528 filter below is stocked and has the same contaminant reduction as the Q5540. The Q5528 carbon is GAC and not coconut carbon like the Q5540. All of these alternatives will fit in the filter head used by the Q5540.

  • Omnipure Q5540 Coconut Carbon Water Filters are designed to fit:

  • The Rayne of Houston (Now Raine Systems) Pure Blue Reverse Osmosis System and Pure Blue Drinking Water System if used with an Omnipure standard valve head.
  • If you do not have a head for the Omnipure Q-Series filters, you can purchase one of the Omnipure Q-Series heads below in the Related Products section.

  • Omnipure Q5540 Acid Washed Coconut GAC Water Filter Instructions:
  • Omnipure Q5540 water filters should be installed on cold water lines only.
  • Omnipure Q5540 water filters should not be used where the water is microbiologically unsafe.
  • Omnipure Q-Series Head O-Ring Instructions:
  • Each time you change your filter, clean and apply silicone, food grade lubricant, OR-LUBRICANT-LG or OR-LUBRICANT-SM, generously to both the small and large o-ring in the Q-Series Head.
  • It is recommended that you replace the Omnipure H-118 O-Ring, every time you change your filter. The H-118 O-Ring is the larger of the two o-rings in the Q-Series Head System. If you do not replace the H-118 O-Ring, you may experience leaking because the o-ring adjusts to the shape of the old filter, which may be slightly different than the new filter.
  • The Omnipure H-011 O-Ring is the smaller o-ring in the Q-Series Head. Inspect this o-ring for any signs of damage, and replace as needed.
