This Pentek 150233 20-BB 1" #20 Big Blue filter housing with pressure relief is suitable for high-flow and heavy sediment applications.The opaque blue sump is made of reinforced polypropylene for strength and resistance to chemicals, and the black cap is made of high-flow polypropylene (HFPP) for stiffness.The black cap has 1" female National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) threaded input and output connexions and a nitrile butadiene rubber (Buna-N) O-ring to ensure a watertight seal.A pressure relief button on the inlet side of the cap releases pressure in the housing for changing filter cartridges.The housing can be used with a 20" x 4-1/2" filter cartridge (sold separately).It has an initial pressure drop of 0.5kg per square inch (psi) at a flow rate of 56.8ls per minute (gpm), a maximum operating pressure of 90 psi, and a maximum operating temperature of 100 degrees F (37.8 degrees C).This filter housing meets National Sanitation Foundation/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) standard 42 for quality assurance, and is for use in various high-flow applications, including residential drinking water filtration, food service, and irrigation, among others.
