About Pentek 151122 OR-100 Buna-N O-ring For Big Black

This Pentek 151122 OR-100 O-ring is used to seal water filter housings. It has a diameter of 5-3/4 inches and is made of nitrile butadiene rubber (Buna-N) for flexibility and resistance to abrasion and tearing. This O-ring fits Pentek Big Blue filter housings, which are used in various applications, such as drinking water purification, swimming pools, and industrial processes, among others. Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by means of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They are made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems typically consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to remove different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that is blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum flow rate, and the amount of water that can be filtered before the filter must be replaced. Water filters are used in a wide range of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others. Pentair manufactures industrial, commercial, and residential water filtration components and systems.
