NP5-BB-10 Nelsen Dirt Cart Filter Cartridge: Superior Sediment Filtration for Cleaner Water Systems

Designed to tackle sediment and particulate buildup effectively, the NP5-BB-10 Nelsen Dirt Cart 9-3/4 5mic Spn Ply filter cartridge offers a trusted solution for maintaining water system integrity. This advanced filter cartridge from Water Softener Plus ensures reliable sediment removal, protecting your water treatment components and improving overall system efficiency with its precise 5-micron filtration.

Key Benefits

• Protects your water system from sediment buildup, extending the life of downstream equipment.
• Delivers consistent 5-micron filtration to capture fine dirt and particles for cleaner water output.
• Durable spun polypropylene construction ensures long-lasting performance even under heavy use.
• Compatible with standard 9-3/4 inch housings for easy integration into existing filter setups.
• Lightweight design simplifies installation and replacement without compromising strength.
• Improves water clarity and taste by reducing suspended solids effectively.

How It Works

The NP5-BB-10 uses a spun polypropylene (spn ply) media that traps sediment and particulate matter as water passes through the cartridge. Its 5-micron rating means it filters out very small particles, preventing them from reaching sensitive components in your water system. The cartridge’s pleated design maximizes surface area, allowing for efficient filtration and longer service life before replacement is needed.

Installed inside a standard filter housing, it acts as the first line of defense against dirt and debris, helping to maintain optimal flow rates and reduce wear on pumps, valves, and softening systems downstream.

What to Expect

Once installed, you’ll immediately notice a reduction in visible sediment and improved water clarity. In the first days and weeks, the filter will capture a significant amount of debris, protecting your system’s internal parts and enhancing overall performance. Over time, you can expect stable filtration efficiency with minimal pressure drop, though periodic replacement will be necessary to maintain peak operation.

Regular monitoring and timely cartridge changes will help ensure your water system continues to run smoothly without interruptions due to clogging or sediment accumulation.

What’s Inside

• Spun Polypropylene Media – Provides fine 5-micron filtration to trap dirt and sediment effectively.
• Polypropylene Core – Offers structural support to maintain cartridge shape and flow.
• Thermally Bonded Layers – Enhance durability and prevent media shedding during use.
• Standard 9-3/4 inch Length – Ensures compatibility with a wide range of sediment filter housings.

How to Use

1. Turn off the water supply to the filter housing where the cartridge will be installed.
2. Release pressure by opening a downstream faucet or using the housing’s pressure relief valve.
3. Unscrew the filter housing and remove the old cartridge if applicable.
4. Insert the NP5-BB-10 cartridge into the housing, ensuring it seats properly on the support base.
5. Reassemble and tighten the housing securely, taking care not to overtighten.
6. Turn the water supply back on slowly and check for leaks around the housing.
7. Flush the system briefly to clear any trapped air and activate the new filter media.
