SCB filters are the most widely used carbon block devices in the world and provide previously unattainable performance at the lowest price point. SCB filters simultaneously remove chlorine taste, odor, and organic chemicals that contribute to taste and odor while providing the particulate filtration and dirt-holding capacity of an efficient 5 µm nominal sediment filter. These filters are optimized for applications where they perform the role of both a sediment and activated carbon filter. The extrusion process allows the production of a carbon block with more carbon, but a lower pressure drop. This enables SCB filters to deliver extended life while removing sediment, chlorine taste and odor and organic contaminants from water, aqueous solutions or suspensions. The SCB is also widely used in filtering organic solvents. The SCB is ideal for use in residential and commercial water purification systems, food service, pre- and post-RO systems.
The SCB is manufactured from high purity acid-washed activated carbon. It’s dirt-holding capacity and absence of carbon fines makes the SCB the filter of choice. A superior carbon block, SCB combines both high performance and integrity with an exceptional cost-to-performance value. As a result, SCB virtually renders GAC filters obsolete by comparison.
