3G Standard Filter Housings represent a major improvement on the Pentek® Standard Housing. 3G, or Third Generation, Standard Housings have improved buttress threads for strength and easier cartridge changes, and Top-Seated Floating O-Ring for leak proof sealing. The 3G Standard Housing is available in a generous 3/4 NPT connection for higher flow rates. The 3G cap includes a mounting boss, an optional integral bracket, a meter mount (pressure gauge sold separately), and an optional pressure relieve bleed valve. The 3G design accepts the Pentek® Seal-Safe™ double o-ring cartridge as well as the traditional Double Open End filter cartridge. 3G Standard Housings are supported with a broad range of sediment, carbon, and specialty cartridges for many filtration and water purification applications. 3G Standard Housings are available in Opaque or Clear sump or bowl options, too.
3G Standard Filter Housings accept all Double Open End filter cartridges that are 2 1/2 to 3 1/8 diameter, and 10 or 20 in length. Pentek® Seal-Safe™ 10 and 20 cartridges are supported, too.
