PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
The Series 6152 Sub-Micron Microbial filter system addresses the concerns
raised by recent reports of cryptosporidium in drinking water. Cryptosporidium
cysts range from 3 - 6 microns in size and are very resistant to common
disinfection methods. This two stage unit combines a 5 micron sediment
cartridge with a unique carbon block/ceramic cartridge rated by an independent
testing agency to be in the sub-micron (<1 micron) range. This combination
provides a means of removing or reducing cryptosporidium, giardia lamblia
and bacteria. Both cartridges are easily replaceable. Unit comes with
a dedicated drinking water faucet.
FILTER MEDIA DESCRIPTION
The first stage of the filtration process consists of a 5 micron pre-filter
cartridge manufactured of polypropylene cord that is
wrapped around a polypropylene core. The second stage cartridge is a porous
ceramic cylinder made of diatomaceus earth (.4 micron), which prevents
the passage of microscopic materials and bacteria. In addition, a carbon
block (1 micron) is included and surrounds the ceramic media. It is manufactured
by preparing powdered carbon in a slurry with a binder and pressing it
into a mold. The finer carbon offers a much greater surface area for exposure.
This increases its ability to reduce contaminants. It removes or reduces
pesticides, insecticides and herbicides. Removes or reduces chlorine,
organic chemicals, bad taste and odor. This combination is jacketed by
a 20 micron outer filter layer.Cartridge life expectancy is 6 - 12 months.
Due to the nature of the filter (.4 micron) and the condition of the water
being treated, no guarantee is made on the cartridge life. The cartridge
should be replaced if chlorine taste returns or if the pressure drops
to below a desirable level. If using to remove a health related contaminant,
a repeat testing program should be used.
