carbonit QUADRO Manual

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ACTIVATED CARBON BLOCK FILTERS
Sintered activated carbon block filters, as used for this system, are
fundamentally different from:
p table or jug filters which slightly improve taste and look of the
water, but remove pollutants only to a small extent.
p extruded block filters, which have a highly bonded (hence
ineffective) activated carbon surface because of the molten
bonding agent used during production.
The high-quality activated carbon based on coconut shells that is
®
used in CARBONIT block filters has a very high adsorption
capacity. Substances such as chlorine, lead, copper,
pharmaceutical residues, as well as hormone-like substances are
removed. The minerals remain in the drinking water.
APPLICABLE FILTER CARTRIDGES
The QUADRO is equipped with 4 filter cartridges CARBONIT
WFP Premium, WFP Protect, WFP Select or WFP Special. The
filter cartridges must be chosen separately.
REPLACEMENT INTERVALS & PERFORMANCE
QUADRO 60: a max. of 6 months / up to 200 m
QUADRO 120: a max. of 6 months / up to 400 m³
A replacement interval of a maximum of 6 months is recommended
for hygienic reasons and is specified in DIN 1988 / DIN EN 1717
standards. An earlier replacement within this period may be
necessary, however, if the water flow is noticeably reduced. This is
no filter defect but a sign of an increased amount of fine particles
in the unfiltered water.
CARE/ MAINTENANCE
The filter housing is practically maintenance-free. Cleaning with a
soft cloth and detergent is recommended every time the filter
cartridge is replaced, and mechanical functionality as well as
wearing parts (seals, valves, hoses, etc.) must be checked.
WEAR PARTS
p
Filter cartridge: Replacement intervals must be observed.
p
Seals / hoses: All seals and hoses are considered wear parts
and must be replaced if necessary.
DISPOSAL OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGES
As the activated carbon of the CARBONIT filter cartridges are made
of coconut shells, the used cartridges can simply be disposed of with
the general household waste.
OTHER PARTICULARS
If one does not adhere to this manual, then any and every warranty
claim is forfeited.
No liability can be assumed for the consequences of using filter
cartridges made by other manufacturers.
