What is the pressure rating for the filter housing? Would it work mounted on a tank that uses a vacuum blower motor to transfer water?

The 10" Big Blue housing is tested by NSF and certified to 100 PSI. If you have any other questions about the correct filter or housing, please reach out to our technical support team (USA based) at 800-279-9404.

Does it remove lead and other contaminents from the water?

It depends upon the filter that you use.

Warranty from the seller for 30 days, you can return the item and receive a full refund. The manufacturer's warranty is written in the instructions.

Can this filter be used for a turtles 40 gallon tank?

The filter canister, Pentek 150237 #10, that this question is relating to, yes. The filter elements available must be gauged for your needs. The elements typically last 6+ months on a 200 gallon per week flow. I think that it would serve you well on a closed loop system; from tank to pump to tank. It should last quite awhile. Choosing the right porosity size filter would be another question.
