Boshart’s carbon briquette cyst removal cartridges are designed for highly effective filtration of water for certain volatile organic chemicals such as toluene and xylene. They are effective for pesticides, chlorine, taste and odour and sediment reduction down to 0.5 micron, making them an excellent polishing filter or pre-filter in applications that require fine filtration. These cartridges are excellent at reducing 99.9% of giardia and cryptosporidium cysts from potable drinking water making them ideal for potable water filtration and many industrial, commercial and food service applications. Carbon briquette cyst removal cartridges are designed as a polishing filter, they are recommended to be installed in conjunction with a pre-filter to
remove sediment.
Removal of sediment prior to contact with a finishing cartridge prevents the finishing cartridge from plugging prematurely due to sediment entrapment long before the maximum utilization of the carbon has been achieved
