Cartridge 20 micron, wire wound 5" - code: 5MP20 - Idromar

Idromar 20 micron wound wire filter cartridge (5″)

The Idromar filter cartridge is wound wire in 100% pure polypropylene % a replacement designed for mechanical filtration water filtration, useful when the goal is to retain particulates and impurities such as sediments, sand and dirt. The filtration grade is 20 micron, a typical choice for the removal of visible particles and solid contaminants present in the line.

This model is identified by the supplier product code 5MP20 and is offered in the size 5″, suitable for filter housings compatible with this height. It is a solution used in technical and maintenance contexts, including nautical, depending on the installed filter housing.

Features and construction details

The cartridge is made with polypropylene wound wire and designed to work as a mechanical filtering element. The wound wire structure is commonly used to intercept solid impurities along the water flow, helping to keep lines cleaner and reduce particulate buildup in the circuit.

Available specifications

• Type: cartridge to wound wire
• Material: 100% pure polypropylene %
• Filtration grade: 20 micron
• Format: 5″ (height 12.6 cm)
• Outer diameter: 6.3 cm
• Code: 5MP20
• Supplier: IDROMAR INTERNATIONAL S.A.S.

Spare part identification

For a correct choice, in addition to the measurements, it is advisable to check the code 5MP20 and compare it with that of the installed cartridge or with the plant's spare parts list. In the presence of filter holders of the same size, compatibility always depends on the characteristics of the container and the system connections.

Typical applications

This cartridge is suitable for applications where mechanical filtration aimed at particulate removal is required. It is a replacement used in plant and maintenance contexts, where the presence of sediments can affect the operation and cleanliness of the lines.

Where it can be used

• Technical systems with filter holder prepared for cartridges of 5″
• Water lines where it is desired to retain sediments and solid impurities
• Maintenance ordinary mechanical filtration systems
• Nautical sector, depending on the filter holder installed on board

Operational advantages

In a filtration system, the choice of a polypropylene wound wire cartridge is often linked to the need to manage solid impurities and keep the supply line more orderly. The practical advantages focus on ease of replacement and the mechanical barrier function against particulates.

Why choose this spare part

• Identifiable spare part by code 5MP20, useful for reorders and scheduled maintenance
• Mechanical filtration targeted at sediments, sand, and dirt
• Compact size 5″, suitable for filter holders of the same height
• Material in 100% pure polypropylene %

Use and maintenance notes

The cartridge is a consumable component: its effectiveness depends on the type of water and the impurity load present. For this reason, replacement should be planned based on actual usage conditions and the indications of your system.

Replacement interval

Replacement is recommended every 3/6 months, depending on the type of water and the level of particulates. In the presence of water particularly loaded with sediments, more frequent intervention may be necessary.

Practical advice

• Check height (5″ / 12.6 cm) and outer diameter (6.3 cm) compared to the installed cartridge.
• Check the code 5MP20 to avoid supply errors.
• During maintenance, operate according to the procedures provided by the filter holder and the system.

Note

The reference to use in the nautical field is to be understood based on the installed filter holder and the configuration of the onboard system.
