A) INTRODUCTION
Rainfresh SM4 Stainless Steel Gravity Water Filter is designed to provide
microbiologically safe drinking water from virtually any water source
(lake, river, pond, stream, well etc.) without the use of pumps or electricity.
It utilizes Rainfresh's unique self-disinfecting, silver-impregnated ceramic filtration technology to trap & kill >99.9999%
pathogenic bacteria (e.g. E. coli) and >99.95% protozoan cysts (e.g. Cryptosporidium & Giardia) in addition to reducing
sediment and suspended matter down to 0.3 micron absolute (1 micron = 1/1000 mm). It also reduces chlorine and improves
water taste and odour.
This unit includes four ceramic cartridges (model 7500G) which are cleanable and reusable (See section E – Cartridge Cleaning).
HOW IT WORKS
The unit has two separate water containers, one (top) for the untreated water and the other (bottom) for safe drinking water.
Both containers are constructed from sturdy, non-magnetized, polished stainless steel.
The upper container holds about 8.5 liters of untreated water. It also holds the four ceramic cartridges through which the
untreated water flows under gravity and gets collected in the bottom treated water container. As water passes through the
ceramic cartridges, harmful bacteria and cysts are trapped inside the cartridges and safe drinking water passes through. Safe
water is dispensed from the spigot (included).
B) NOTES & WARNINGS:
1.
Contaminants reduced by this filter are not necessarily in your water. Individuals requiring water of specific microbiological purity
should follow the advice of their doctor or local health unit.
2.
For cold water use only
3.
Do not subject this unit to freezing temperatures or it will crack.
4.
Do not boil the cartridges to disinfect. They are self-disinfecting.
Tested and Certified by CSA Group to NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for reduction of Cyst
(e.g. Cryptosporidium & Giardia).
The standard referenced above evaluates products for use with disinfected waters.
Additional testing and verification for reduction of bacteria and particulates performed
by independent laboratory.
