<p>The present invention relates to a filter cartridge for filtration of water which ensures desired particulate removal including microorganisms like cysts while giving the desired high flow rate more consistently over a larger volume of inlet water, as compared to the prior art cartridges. Accordingly, the present invention provides a filter cartridge for filtration of water comprising a carbon block (CB) that is seated in a receptacle wherein said carbon block is detachably attachable in said receptacle using a fastening means (STl, ST2) and a gasket means (G) wherein said filter cartridge comprises a collection chamber (CC) positioned below the carbon block (CB) in the receptacle for holding the water that exits the carbon block, said collection chamber comprising a dome shaped holder plate (HP) provided with at least one water discharge port (DP) said plate positioned in close proximity to the carbon block, and an outlet nozzle (ON) for water having an inlet and outlet end (IE, OE) , said inlet end (IE) positioned in close proximity to the under side of said plate such that all the water passing through the carbon block collects in the space between the top of the plate and the carbon block before exiting through the discharge port to fill the collection chamber and exit through the nozzle.</p> |
