AF-10-3322 Polyphosphate Scale Inhibitor Cartridge
The Aries AF-10-3322 uses slow-dissolving polyphosphate crystals to coat pipes and appliances with a protective barrier that prevents scale buildup and corrosion. The clear bead media sequesters iron to prevent precipitation, extending the service life of water-using equipment. Actual dimensions: 9-3/4" height x 3" diameter, designed for standard 10" filter housings.
How Polyphosphate Protection Works
Self-Healing Coating
Polyphosphate crystals dissolve slowly to create a protective film on pipe interiors and appliance surfaces, preventing new scale formation
Scale Prevention
Stops calcium and magnesium deposits from adhering to surfaces, protecting water heaters, boilers, and tankless systems
Corrosion Inhibition
Forms a barrier against oxidation and galvanic corrosion in copper, brass, and steel piping systems
Iron Sequestration
Binds dissolved iron to prevent staining and precipitation, improving water clarity and reducing maintenance
Standard Sizing
10" x 2.5" format fits most residential and light commercial housings with 1" NPT ports
Food-Grade Media
2 lbs. of NSF-approved polyphosphate beads for safe use in potable water applications
System Integration
The Aries AF-10-3322 polyphosphate cartridge installs in standard 10-inch filter housings for whole-house scale control, RO system pre-treatment, or point-of-use applications. Compatible with Pentek, Culligan, Omni, and other brands using 10" x 2.5" cartridge slots. Ideal for well water systems, high-hardness municipal supplies, and tankless water heater protection. Important: Use only with chlorinated water or pair with UV, KDF, or ceramic bacterial protection, as phosphates can promote bacterial growth in non-disinfected water.
Aries Filter Works manufactures specialty water treatment media for residential and commercial applications, trusted by installers for reliable scale and corrosion control.
