This Jyntrel activated carbon filter cartridge is a gravity-fed water filter for pitchers, bottles and appliance reservoirs. It combines coconut-shell activated carbon with ion-exchange resin to reduce chlorine, odours, scale-forming minerals and heavy metals such as lead and copper. It is designed for OEM and private-label programmes where the filter must match a specific pitcher or bottle and perform reliably under real household conditions.
In a gravity pitcher system, the operating conditions are defined by water head, flow rate and contact time rather than by pump pressure. Water passes through the inlet grid, moves through the carbon-and-resin bed, and exits through a precision-moulded outlet screen. The outlet screen is engineered to maintain a steady downward flow under gravity while retaining carbon fines, so the filtered water stays clear throughout the cartridge’s service life.
Because the driving force is low, the internal geometry matters. The carbon and resin are packed to keep a stable contact path without channelling, and the inlet and outlet structures are matched to the target jug or bottle so that the cartridge seats correctly and does not bypass. In hot-climate use, stored water can be warmer and flow slightly faster; the cartridge is built to tolerate normal household temperature variation without losing its shape or releasing fines.
This is a water filter, not an air filter. The air path is limited to the headspace above the water in the pitcher or bottle; the cartridge does not treat air, and it should not be used as an in-line air filter. Its performance is governed by water flow, water quality and the contact time the housing provides.
The coconut-shell activated carbon is selected for high iodine value, giving fast uptake of residual chlorine, colour and odour. The ion-exchange resin softens the water by reducing calcium and magnesium, which are the minerals behind kettle and pitcher scale, and it also captures soluble heavy metals including lead and copper. A fine sediment layer holds back sand, rust and suspended particles before they reach the carbon bed.
The housing is food-grade PP, injection-moulded with a precision screen. The screen supports a good gravity flow rate while blocking carbon dust, so the cartridge does not produce black water in normal use. The carbon-to-resin ratio can be adjusted for lead reduction, softening or a balance of both, and the external shape can be produced from a customer-owned mould. Standard cartridges are rated for 150 gallons (about 567 litres), roughly two months of typical household use; actual life varies with water quality, water pressure and daily consumption.
Jyntrel supplies this cartridge as a standard item and as an OEM/ODM project. For a standard item, we need the target device model and the required flow rate. For a custom project, we need the interface dimensions or a drawing of the housing, the expected water flow, the source-water conditions, the target reduction claims (for example lead, chlorine or hardness), the packaging requirement and the order quantity. With those inputs our engineering team can propose a carbon-to-resin ratio, screen specification and housing geometry that fit the device.
We support customer-specific moulds for the outer shell, logo and retail packaging. Tooling and validation follow the normal project sequence: drawing review, sample moulding, performance checks and production approval.

This is a water filter cartridge, so air velocity does not apply. Performance depends on water head, flow rate and contact time in the pitcher or bottle. If your application involves air filtration, please ask about our separate air filter range.
For this water cartridge we do not use airflow data. To quote, we need the device model, the required water flow rate, the source-water conditions and the order quantity. If you are designing an air filter, our team can advise on the relevant airflow and resistance data separately.
The cartridge combines coconut-shell activated carbon with ion-exchange resin to capture lead and copper. We can provide test data from our CNAS-accredited laboratory for the specific configuration you select. Efficiency depends on the media ratio and the contact time in your housing, so share your target claims and we will match the design.
Yes. We support OEM/ODM projects with customer-specific moulds for the outer shell, logo and packaging. The carbon-to-resin ratio can also be adjusted for lead reduction, softening or a balance of both. Provide a drawing or sample of the interface and we will confirm the fit.
We can supply samples for evaluation; please share the device model and required configuration. Quotations are prepared after we receive the size or drawing, flow requirement, operating conditions and quantity. Sample and tooling terms are confirmed at quotation stage.
MOQ depends on the configuration and packaging. For standard cartridges it is lower than for fully custom moulded versions. Please state your target quantity and packaging requirement so we can confirm the exact MOQ for your project.
Lead time is confirmed at order stage and depends on whether the item is standard or custom and on the current production schedule. Our multiple automated lines support millions of pieces per month. Share your required delivery date and we will align production accordingly.
The standard cartridge is rated for 150 gallons (about 567 litres), roughly two months of typical household use. Actual replacement interval depends on water quality, water pressure and daily consumption. We can supply variants with different capacities if your market requires a different service life.
