Phosphate Crystal Water Filter

• Pentek / Ametek Phosphate Crystal PCC-1 Water Filter:
• Hexametaphosphate Crystal Water Filter Cartridges
• Pentek PCC-1 water filters contain food-grade hexametaphosphate that dissolves slowly in water to inhibit scale and rust build-up. The water enters from slits on the bottom of the filter cartridge and works its way up the bed.
• Recommended for use with ice machines, coffee and vending machines, food service equipment, water heaters, air conditioning equipment and many other types of water processing equipment.
• Effective for treating scale, corrosion and iron problems for up to six months at various flow rates and feed concentrations.
• Keeps hardness particles separated so they cannot precipitate and form deposits when heated. Maximum hardness 15 gpg.
• Forms a protective coating on all metal surfaces, safeguarding against acidity/alkalinity, hardness, chloride and other factors which effect the corrosion of water equipment and pipes. pH range 6.5 – 9.0.
• Keeps dissolved iron, up to 1 ppm, suspended in solution (sequestered), preventing dissolved iron from precipitating, which would cause staining and discoloration.
• CAUTION: Eye irritant. Contains sodium calcium hexametaphosphate. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes, get medical attention. Keep out of reach of children.
• NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
• NOTE: With steamers, the water should be flushed daily.
• CAUTION: Do not use this water filter cartridge on water that will be carbonated.

• Pentek PCC-1 Phosphate Crystal Filter Cartridge Specs:
• Dimensions: 9-5/8" x 2-7/8" (244 mm x 73 mm)
• Initial ΔP (psi) @ Flow Rate (gpm):
  Up to 5 gpm (19 L/min)
• Temperature Rating:
  40°F to 100°F (4.4° C to 37.8°C)
  The phosphate material in the PCC series is rated to 100°F. If the water is above 100°F, the phosphates become more soluble, wasting the material. Also, there is risk of the phosphates melting as one gets further above 100°F.
