Chicago Faucets 217-XTRHJKTPF
The Chicago Faucets 217-XTRHJKTPF is a genuine OEM Right-Hand Slow Compression Operating Cartridge specifically engineered for Distilled Water (DI/RO) applications. Standard brass cartridges can leach minerals into high-purity water; however, the 217-XTRHJKTPF features specialized internal components and a tin-lined or inert coating to maintain the integrity of distilled water. This short stem model is designed for fixtures with exposed caps and provides the gradual, precise flow control necessary for delicate laboratory titrations and pure water dispensing.
Features:
- Right-hand
- Short stem for exposed caps
- For distilled water applications
- 180-degree turn
Expert Insight:
The 217-XTRHJKTPF is a critical component for high-purity water loops. Warning: Never use a standard brass cartridge in a distilled water faucet, as the aggressive nature of pure water will quickly corrode the metal and contaminate your samples. Installation Tip: When installing this cartridge, ensure your hands and tools are free of oils and contaminants. Use a 1-1/8" wrench to seat the cartridge, but avoid over-tightening, which can damage the specialized internal seals. Pro Tip: The "RH" designation indicates this is a Right-Hand cartridge, typically installed on the Cold side or as the primary control for a single-service DI water turret. Because pure water systems often utilize plastic or tin-lined piping, this cartridge is built to survive in "hungry water" environments that would destroy standard plumbing.
