The Watts Big-Bubba Pleated Cartridge 50 µm (BBC-150-P50, PE 50 Micron) from AMPAC USA is engineered for a wide range of water treatment applications. This pleated sediment filter cartridge removes particulate matter for cleaner water across industrial and commercial processes. Its pleated design significantly increases the surface area available for filtration, allowing for greater throughput and extended cartridge life compared to standard depth filters - reducing how often cartridges need replacing and lowering operational costs.
- 50-micron rating captures a broad range of suspended solids including silt and rust
- Pleated polyethylene media increases surface area for greater throughput
- Fits all Big Bubba BBH-150 filter housings
- Chemically resistant construction suited to gelatinous substances
- Double O-ring seals prevent bypass
With a 50-micron filtration rating, the BBC-150-P50 effectively captures a broad range of suspended solids, including silt, rust, and other sediments that affect water quality. Its polyethylene filter media offers excellent chemical resistance, making it a good fit for water containing various chemical compounds or gelatinous substances, and helping ensure consistent, long-lasting performance even in challenging environments. Double O-ring seals guarantee a secure fit within compatible housings and prevent bypass, so all water flows through the filter media for optimal purification.
Designed to fit all Big Bubba BBH-150 filter housings, this jumbo cartridge supports higher flow rates and increased dirt-holding capacity for applications requiring substantial water volumes. Typical uses include reverse osmosis pre-filtration, municipal water treatment, industrial process water, and commercial irrigation - particularly where high efficiency and chemical resistance matter for maintaining water purity and protecting downstream equipment from sediment buildup.
AMPAC USA applies stringent quality control throughout manufacturing to ensure each cartridge meets high standards of performance and durability. Advanced polyethylene media technology ensures consistent pore size and media integrity for predictable, effective filtration. The Watts Big-Bubba BBC-150 Series also includes depth filters at 1, 5, and 20 micron ratings for additional filtration options.
