ABSTRACT:
A composite cartridge type filter of the kind utilizing a hollow cylindrical body of bonded activated carbon and an interior filled with a particulate filter media bed is disposed within a housing such that raw unfiltered water passes radially inwardly through the carbon body, into the interior media bed and then axially through the media bed to an outlet in one end. To balance the radial flow of water through the carbon body and maximize contact with the particulate media bed, a flow distribution device is disposed in the interface between the carbon body and the particulate filter media bed to distribute a portion of the flow toward the end of the media bed which is remote from the cartridge outlet. In this manner, short circuiting of the water through the filter is eliminated, radial flow through the carbon body is balanced, and a substantial portion of the flow is forced to follow a path which carries it through substantially the full length of the particulate media bed.
