EC-110 Prefilter care (part number 4621-41).

The EC-110 is a 10 micron nominal filtration cartridge for filtering out larger dirt and rust particles, extending the life of primary filters. For use in the E-10 and E-20 housings as well as other 10˝ and 20˝ housings.

Wait, let's go back a step. 

What is a micron? A micron is a size, a unit of length equal to one millionth of a meter, used in many technological and scientific fields. The smaller the micron number the better the filter protection.

The average size of the openings between pieces of the filter media are represented in microns. 

For example, a 20-micron filter has larger openings than a 5-micron filter. This means the 20-micron filter element will let larger particles pass through the filter than the 5-micron.

For taste and odor, chlorine reduction, the Nu-Plus 7CB5-S (part No. 4621-30), is a problem solving 

cartridge for high particulate or low flow water pressure areas . 

The carbon block filter finely polishes the water allowing for high quality beverage and food applications. 

It has scale control and reduces chlorine taste and odor and other offensive contaminants. It also reduces particulate to 5 microns.

and giardia cysts.

                                                                    

Want to control odors and prevent overflows?

Pan-Treat (part No. 4296-60) condensate tablets control odors and can prevent overflows from plugged condensate drain lines.

They can also be used on humidifiers.

Pan-Treat is extremely easy to use, and is safe, non-corrosive, non-toxic and biodegradable. The product is completely soluble in water and it does not form any deposits in the pan or drain.

Left untreated, condensate pans can suffer from the build-up of sludge, scum and other accumulations. This build-up can cause odors as well as plugged drains and overflows, which in turn result in water damage.

Pan-Treat is formulated with ingredients proven effective in cleaning and preventing these deposits, and its use will eliminate the extra maintenance costs associated with odors, plugged drains and overflows.

The product is completely soluble in water and it does not form any deposits in the pan or drain. 

For subsequent treatment or clean condensate pans, use one Pan-Treat tablet per ton each month.                   

Position the tablets away from the drain and where they will achieve maximum contact with dripping condensate. This will assure more complete cleaning action and treatment. 

For larger systems, where the use of many tablets may be impractical, us N-Calgon's PanPads condensate pan product.

Directions for Use

Condensate Pans:

If the pan is noticeably fouled, it can

be cleaned by using two or more Pan-Treat tablets per

ton of system capacity. Repeat until system is clean. For

subsequent treatment or clean condensate pans, use

one Pan-Treat tablet per ton each month. Position the

tablets away from the drain and where they will achieve

maximum contact with dripping condensate. This will

assure more complete cleaning action and treatment. For

larger systems, where the use of many tablets may be

impractical, use Nu-Calgon’s PanPads® condensate pan

products.

Humidifiers:

Pan-Treat tablets can be used to condition

humidifier water in order to prevent odors and deposit

build-up. Use 2-4 tablets every four to six weeks as

needed. Clean and rinse out the humidifier’s reservoir on

a regular basis.

Packaging Size: 1 bottle (200 tablets).

Yep. Same company. 

No? Too young? Or need your memory refreshed? Here is a video with the old commercial from the 1970s.

So the same group that sells the bath products, supplies your water filtration, HAVACR cleaning needs.

Nu-Calgon chemical products -- coil cleaners, refrigeration oils, descales and specialty applications -- go largely unnoticed and unseen. For those in the HVACR and restaurant business Nu-Calgon is an indispensable part of the business. 

A premier company of HVACR chemicals, Nu-Calgon is a spin off of Calgon to better serve the HVAC-R business.

The Calgon brand became a houshold name by virtue of its bathroom (Calgonite) and bath (Calgon) products (see above video). In the 1930s the company entered into the air conditioning business.
