PURETEC EM2-60 REPLACEMENT CARTRIDGES

Puretec EM2-60 JR Service Kit – PL05MP1 & DP10MP1 Replacement Cartridges

The Puretec EM2-60 JR Service Kit combines the two genuine replacement cartridges specified for the Puretec EM2-60 dual-stage whole-house filtration system: the PL05MP1 5 micron washable pleated sediment cartridge and the DP10MP1 10 micron dual-purpose carbon cartridge.

Both cartridges use Puretec's large 4.5" × 10" MaxiPlus format. The PL05MP1 provides the first sediment-filtration stage, followed by the DP10MP1 for additional sediment filtration together with chlorine, unwanted taste and odour reduction.

This cartridge pair restores the filtration combination currently specified by Puretec for the EM2-60.

Quick answer: this EM2-60 service kit contains 1 × PL05MP1 and 1 × DP10MP1. Both are 4.5" × 10" MaxiPlus cartridges. Stage one provides washable 5 micron sediment filtration, while stage two adds dual-purpose sediment and carbon treatment. Puretec lists the complete EM2-60 at 60 L/min, 200–520 kPa and a 1" BSP [25 mm] connection.

```
This JR service kit is the two-cartridge replacement pair. O-rings, food-grade lubricant, housings, valves and other service parts are not automatically included unless specifically stated with the product being ordered.
DUAL-STAGE FILTRATION

Sediment First, Dual-Purpose Carbon Treatment Second

The EM2-60 uses two different filtration stages rather than two identical sediment cartridges.

Stage 1 uses the PL05MP1 to provide nominal 5 micron sediment filtration. Stage 2 uses the DP10MP1, combining additional particulate filtration with carbon treatment for chlorine, unwanted taste and odour reduction.

This is the cartridge sequence specified by Puretec for the current EM2-60-LF.

STAGE 1

Puretec PL05MP1 5 Micron Pleated Sediment Cartridge

The PL05MP1 is a washable pleated sediment cartridge manufactured from durable non-woven reusable polyester media supported around a polypropylene core.

Its job in the EM2-60 is to reduce suspended sediment before the water reaches the second filtration stage.

5 Micron

Provides the nominal first-stage sediment filtration specified for the EM2-60.

```

4.5" × 10"

Uses Puretec's large 10-inch MaxiPlus cartridge format.

90 L/min

Puretec technical information lists the individual PL05MP1 cartridge at up to 90 litres per minute.

Washable

Puretec specifies the pleated polyester media as washable and reusable where appropriate.

Sediment Filtration

Targets suspended particulate material such as dirt, rust, sand and silt.

Large Surface Area

The pleated design increases available media area for sediment collection.

```
STAGE 2

Puretec DP10MP1 Dual-Purpose Carbon Cartridge

The DP10MP1 is the second cartridge specified for the EM2-60.

Rather than being a conventional bonded carbon block, the DP10MP1 uses carbon-impregnated non-cellulose pleated media. This allows one cartridge to provide sediment filtration together with carbon treatment.

10 Micron

The DP10MP1 has a nominal particulate-filtration rating of 10 micron.

```

4.5" × 10"

Uses the same MaxiPlus physical format as the first-stage cartridge.

Carbon Treatment

Designed to reduce chlorine taste, unwanted taste and odour while also filtering sediment.

```
WHAT THE KIT TREATS

Filtration Functions of the EM2-60 Cartridge Pair

Sediment

Both filtration stages contribute to suspended particulate reduction.

```

Dirt & Rust

The washable first stage is designed to capture dirt, rust and similar suspended material.

Sand & Silt

The PL05MP1 provides physical filtration of common suspended sediment.

Chlorine

The DP10MP1 provides carbon treatment for chlorine taste and odour in applicable water supplies.

Unwanted Taste

The carbon-impregnated second stage is designed to reduce unwanted taste.

Odour

Puretec specifies unwanted odour reduction as part of the DP10MP1 treatment function.

FLOW RATE

Use the EM2-60 System Flow Specification

Puretec lists the complete EM2-60 at a maximum flow rate of 60 L/min.

Individual cartridge flow specifications can differ from the complete-system flow because the installed system includes two cartridges, housings, fittings and associated pipework.

Do not calculate EM2-60 flow from cartridge ratings alone. The manufacturer-listed complete-system specification of 60 L/min is the relevant figure for the EM2-60.
WATER SOURCE

Designed Primarily for Rainwater Filtration

Puretec designs the EM2-60 specifically for rainwater filtration.

Puretec also identifies the EM Series for use with mains, river, dam and bore water where the complete system is suitable for the incoming water conditions.

Filtration requirements depend on the water source. The PL05MP1 and DP10MP1 provide sediment and carbon treatment but should not be treated as a substitute for required microbiological disinfection or specialist treatment for dissolved water-quality issues.
EM2-60 VS EM2-65

Same Cartridge Pair, Different System Connection

Puretec specifies the same PL05MP1 + DP10MP1 cartridge combination for the EM2-60 and EM2-65.

Feature EM2-60 EM2-65
Stage 1 PL05MP1 PL05MP1
Stage 2 DP10MP1 DP10MP1
Maximum Flow 60 L/min 65 L/min
Connection 1" BSP [25 mm] 1½" BSP [40 mm]
Current Pressure Range 200–520 kPa 200–520 kPa

The cartridge pair may be the same, but the complete EM2-60 and EM2-65 systems have different hydraulic connections and system flow specifications.

WHEN TO SERVICE

How Often Should the EM2-60 Cartridges Be Replaced?

Puretec's whole-house and EM maintenance guidance specifies cartridge replacement approximately every 6–12 months.

Actual service life depends on incoming water quality, sediment loading and total water use. Replacement may be required sooner if water flow decreases or unwanted taste and odour begin to return.

  • 6–12 month maintenance interval has been reached
  • Water flow has noticeably reduced
  • PL05MP1 has become heavily loaded with sediment
  • Unwanted taste or odour has begun to return
  • Incoming water quality has changed
  • Previous cartridge replacement date is unknown
WASHABLE FIRST STAGE

Can the PL05MP1 Be Cleaned?

Yes. Puretec specifies the PL05MP1 as a washable pleated sediment cartridge.

Surface sediment may be cleaned from the pleated polyester media where appropriate, helping restore flow during the service period.

Cleaning does not make the cartridge permanent. Replace it according to the complete system's maintenance schedule or when its condition requires replacement.

SERVICE PROCESS

What Is Involved in an EM2-60 Cartridge Service?

  • Confirm the installed system is an EM2-60
  • Confirm replacement cartridges are PL05MP1 and DP10MP1
  • Turn off the incoming water supply
  • Relieve pressure using a downstream tap or housing pressure relief where fitted
  • Open the filter housings using the appropriate housing wrench if required
  • Remove the existing cartridges
  • Clean the bowls with soap and warm water
  • Rinse the filter bowls thoroughly
  • Inspect the housing O-rings and sealing surfaces
  • Apply suitable food-grade silicone lubricant where required
  • Install PL05MP1 in stage one
  • Install DP10MP1 in stage two
  • Ensure both cartridges are correctly seated
  • Reassemble the filter housings without overtightening
  • Restore water pressure gradually and check for leaks
O-RING MAINTENANCE

Inspect the Housing Seals During Servicing

Puretec's whole-house maintenance procedure instructs the user to inspect housing O-rings whenever the cartridges are changed.

Damaged seals should be replaced before the system is returned to service. Use suitable food-grade silicone lubricant where lubrication is required.

This JR cartridge pair does not automatically include replacement O-rings or lubricant unless those items are specifically stated as part of the purchased product.

BEFORE ORDERING

Check These Details First

  • Installed system is a Puretec EM2-60
  • Stage one requires PL05MP1
  • Stage two requires DP10MP1
  • Both cartridges use the 4.5" × 10" MaxiPlus format
  • You require sediment plus carbon treatment
  • Filter housings are accessible for servicing
  • Existing housings and O-rings are serviceable
  • Incoming water can be safely isolated
DIY OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICE

Can the EM2-60 Cartridges Be Replaced Yourself?

Puretec provides a routine cartridge replacement procedure for its whole-house and EM systems, covering water isolation, depressurisation, filter-bowl cleaning, seal inspection, cartridge installation and leak checking.

Routine servicing may therefore be practical where the filtration system is accessible, in serviceable condition and can be safely isolated and repressurised.

Professional servicing may be appropriate where there are existing faults or difficult access. Cracked housings, damaged O-rings, seized bowls, leaking valves or associated plumbing issues can require additional parts or work beyond replacing the cartridges.
