Specifications & Performance Claims
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI
Standard 42 for particulate class III reduction (5 micron
to less than 15 micron) . The concentration of the
indicated substance in water entering the system was
reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the
Rated Service Flow Rate @ 60 psi (414 kPa)
Pressure Drop @ 30 psi (207 kPa)
Water Pressure Limits (minimum / maximum)
Water Temperature Limits (minimum / maximum)
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Read this performance data
and compare the capabilities of this unit with your
actual water treatment needs. It is recommended that,
before purchasing a water treatment unit, you have
your water supply tested to determine your actual
water treatment needs. This filter system is designed
to be used for the reduction of the performance claims
listed below. Do not use where water is microbiologi-
cally unsafe or of unknown quality, without adequate
disinfection before or after the system. While testing
was performed under standard laboratory conditions,
actual performance of the system may vary based on
local water conditions. Some or all of the contami-
