Congratulations on your purchase of a high quality filter for softening and deferrization of water Aquaphor. The Aquaphor water softener filter (hereinafter referred to as the softener) is a high-performance device that removes high concentrations of hardness salts, iron and manganese, ensures long-term operation without replacing the sorbent, and minimizes salt and water consumption during regeneration.
*** For the correct selection of the filter, use the operating capacity and pressure drop. Long-term operation at flows higher than those tested (more than 30 l/min) may lead to a decrease in cleaning efficiency. **** Only for version S800 P1.
