Sintered Activated Carbon Block Filter Cartridge Ф60×130 for Water Purifiers

The Jyntrel sintered activated carbon block filter cartridge Ф60×130 is a coconut-shell carbon and ion-exchange resin cartridge for water purifiers, refrigerators, and coffee machines. It reduces chlorine, taste and odour, and scale-forming minerals, and it is designed for point-of-use water treatment systems that need a compact, high-flow filter. The cartridge is manufactured by Jyntrel in Zhongshan, Guangdong, China, and is available in custom dimensions to fit your equipment.

Operating Conditions and Airflow Path

In a water purifier, the carbon block sits in the water path, not the air path. The operating conditions that matter are water flow rate, pressure, temperature, and the quality of the incoming water. The cartridge is built around a uniform microporous structure that keeps the initial flow high and the pressure drop low, so the system can deliver a steady stream without straining the pump. The sintered block is self-supporting and does not release black carbon fines, which protects downstream membranes and valves.

Because the block is made with 100% premium coconut-shell carbon and a food-grade ion-exchange resin, it works best in systems where the water is already potable but needs polishing: removing residual chlorine from municipal supplies, softening slightly hard water to prevent scale, and trapping trace heavy metals such as lead and mercury. The cartridge is not intended for treating heavily contaminated or microbiologically unsafe water without appropriate pre-treatment.

For air-path applications such as compressor intakes or HVAC pre-filters, a different product would be required; this carbon block is specified for liquid filtration. If your system uses a carbon block in a combined air/water loop, share the details and Jyntrel will confirm compatibility.

Core Performance

The Ф60×130 cartridge is rated for a nominal filtration accuracy of 5 micrometres, which captures fine particles while maintaining a high flow rate. The coconut-shell carbon has a high iodine value, giving strong adsorption of chlorine, chloramines, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and odours. The built-in ion-exchange resin softens the water and helps reduce scale formation on heating elements and membranes.

Typical service life is 6 to 12 months, depending on feed-water quality and daily volume. The cartridge is designed to be a drop-in replacement in standard housings, and it is available with end-cap welding for a secure seal. Jyntrel can supply the cartridge with or without outer wrap, and with custom end-cap configurations to match your system.

Selection and Customisation: the Data We Need

To recommend the right carbon block for your application, Jyntrel needs a few key data points: the device or vehicle model (if applicable), the required outside diameter and length or a drawing, the target flow rate, the operating pressure and temperature, and the water chemistry (chlorine level, hardness, TDS). Quantity and packaging requirements also help us quote accurately. With these details, we can select the appropriate carbon type, resin loading, and end-cap design, or develop a new size using our flexible moulding process.

Jyntrel supports OEM/ODM projects: dimensions, end caps, centre hole, outer wrap, logo, and packaging can all be customised. Over 1,000 filtration solutions have been developed, and our team can work from your drawing or sample.

Parameters

Typical Applications

• Household reverse-osmosis (RO) systems: used as a pre-filter (CTO) to protect the membrane from chlorine and particulates, or as a post-filter (T33) for taste polishing.
• Direct drinking water dispensers and point-of-use coolers.
• Side-by-side refrigerators with built-in water and ice dispensers.
• Commercial coffee machines and ice makers where scale and chlorine affect taste and equipment life.

In each case, the carbon block is selected to match the flow and pressure of the appliance, and Jyntrel can supply the cartridge with the appropriate end-cap and wrap for your housing.

Manufacturing and Testing at Jyntrel

Jyntrel operates multiple automated production lines with a monthly capacity of millions of pieces, supported by a 50,000 m² plant in Zhongshan, Guangdong, China. The plant includes six clean rooms totalling 20,000 m², where critical processes are carried out under controlled conditions. With more than 20 years of export experience to Europe, the United States, Japan, and South Korea, we understand the documentation and consistency required for long-term supply.

Quality control follows an IQC, IPQC, and OQC flow, and the in-house laboratory is CNAS-accredited, capable of issuing test reports for filtration efficiency, dust holding capacity, and resistance. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications, and has been certified to IATF 16949 since 2024. Products comply with REACH and RoHS, and compliance documents are available on request. For water-contact components, Jyntrel can also provide documentation to support compliance with relevant drinking-water safety standards.
