As the first line of defense in your RO system, it captures dirt, rust, sand, and suspended particles down to 5 microns before water reaches the membrane — protecting it from premature fouling and extending its usable life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eDue to its role as the primary sediment barrier, this filter works harder than downstream stages and should be replaced every 3 to 6 months to maintain proper flow and system efficiency. Its candle-mount connection is proprietary to Hydrotech systems, making replacement simple and tool-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eReduces sediment particles, including dirt, rust, and sand, down to 5 microns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePre-filter for Hydrotech 1240 Series (E, M, Pro), HT101, HT102, HT103, and HT123 RO systems — protects the membrane from premature wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCandle-mount connection fits directly into compatible Hydrotech systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hydrotech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43671996760245,"sku":"41400008","price":11.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/1197\/1509\/files\/hydrotech-hydrotech-2-x-11.5-5-mic-sediment-filter-41400008-41400008__94477.1691442070.1280.1280.jpg?v=1719457074","url":"https:\/\/ispwaterproducts.com\/products\/hydrotech-41400008-sediment-filter-5-micron-2-x-11-5","provider":"ESP Water","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
