* Tested using a flow rate of 0.50 gpm; pressure of 60 psig; pH of 7.5 ± 0.5; temp. of 68° ± 5°F (20° ± 3°C)
** Measurement in Particles/ml. Particles used were 0.5-1 microns
*** NTU=Nephelometric Turbidity units
Operating Specifications
‡ Capacity: certified for up to 300 gallons (1135 l); up to six months for models without a replacement filter indicator light;
up to one year for models with a replacement filter indicator light
‡ Pressure requirement: 40–120 psi (2.8–8.2 bar), non-shock
‡ Temperature: 33–100ºF (0.6–38ºC)
‡ Flow rate: 0.5 gpm (1.9 lpm)
General Installation/Operation/Maintenance Requirements
‡ Flush new cartridge at full flow for 3 minutes to purge out trapped air.
‡ Replace cartridge when the indicator light flashes or water flow rate is reduced on non-indicator units.
Special Notices
‡ Installation instructions, parts and service availability, and standard warranty are included with the product when shipped.
‡ This drinking water system must be maintained according to manufacturer’s instructions, including replacement of filter cartridges.
‡ Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
‡ The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water treatment system are not necessarily in your water.
‡ Check for compliance with the state and local laws and regulations.
‡ Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary. Systems must be
installed and operated in accordance with manufacturer’s recommended procedures and guidelines.
