Pentek NCP-10
10" x 2.5" Pleated Carbon-Impregnated Polyester Filter
Dual-action sediment and carbon filtration in a single 10 micron cartridge engineered for municipal and non-chlorinated water systems
10 Micron Nominal
225 Gallon Capacity
Bacteria Resistant
Low Pressure Drop
The Pentek NCP-10 combines carbon-impregnated polyester pleats with sediment filtration to reduce chlorine taste and odor while capturing particulate down to 10 microns. The non-cellulose construction resists bacterial growth, making it suitable for both chlorinated municipal water and well water applications where biological contamination is a concern.

COMPATIBILITY
Recommended Applications
The NCP-10 fits standard 10-inch filter housings with 2.5-inch diameter openings. Use as a polishing filter in reverse osmosis systems, whole-house applications, or well water treatment where both sediment removal and carbon filtration are needed. The pleated design provides high dirt-loading capacity with minimal pressure drop, making it ideal for post-RO installations, closed-loop recirculation systems, and any application requiring extended service life with dual-action filtration.
