Description
Product Overview
The Franklin 30" x 2.5" OD FWPS Series Spun Poly Filter Cartridge is engineered for high-capacity sediment filtration in commercial, industrial, and process water applications. Manufactured from 100% melt-blown polypropylene using thermal fusion technology, these cartridges contain no binders, adhesives, or chemical glues that could contaminate the water supply.
Its advanced three-layer density design features larger outer fibers and finer inner fibers to maximize dirt-holding capacity while maintaining low pressure drop and consistent filtration performance. This structure allows the cartridge to effectively capture sediment, rust, sand, scale, suspended solids, and particulate contaminants while delivering long service life.
The 30" extended-length design provides increased contaminant retention and reduced maintenance frequency for higher-demand filtration systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contaminants does this filter remove?
The FWPS Series helps reduce sediment, rust, sand, scale, suspended solids, and other particulate contaminants from water systems.
What makes the three-layer structure beneficial?
The graduated density design traps larger particles on the outer layers while capturing finer contaminants deeper inside the cartridge, extending filter life and improving dirt-holding capacity.
Does this filter contain adhesives or binders?
No. The cartridge is thermally bonded without chemical glues, binders, or adhesives.
Is this cartridge safe for drinking water applications?
Yes. The filter is NSF 42 certified and compliant with FDA CFR Title 21 requirements for potable water applications.
Can this cartridge be used with chemicals?
Yes. The 100% polypropylene construction offers broad chemical compatibility for many industrial and process fluid applications.
