This is a 0.5 micron Pentek CBR2 10″ carbon block water filter. The CBR2-10 and CBR2-10R are advanced multimedia cartridges designed to reduce chlorine taste and odor, as well as other contaminants.
CBR2 Series cartridges are manufactured using a patented process, and combine powdered activated carbon (PAC) with a specially designed adsorbent medium for lead and mercury reduction.
These cartridges are protected by Endurawrap, a uniquely formulated polyolefin bilaminate prefilter designed to significantly increase the cartridge’s useful life by trapping sediment that typically plugs carbon block cartridges.
