CERAMIKX

All-Carbon, Sub-Micron Performance

99.9996% E. Coli reduction
NSF Standard 53 Cyst reduction including Cryptosporidium
and Giardia

NSF Standard 42 Class I-Chlorine, Taste & Odour reduction
Cost-efficient, combining the performance of a "ceramic candle" and activated carbon into one filter
Cleans with " just the wipe of a sponge"
2 models fitting most standard housings

The "all-carbon" CERAMIKX™ filter combines the fine particulate reduction of traditional ceramic filters with the chlorine, taste and odour reduction of activated carbon. With 99.9996% reduction of E.coli, the 0.2 µm CERAMIKX™ filter meets NSF Standard 53 Class 1 criteria for particulate removal and turbidity reduction, and the control of cysts, including Cryptosporidium and Giardia. CERAMIKX™ filters also meet NSF Standard 42 for Class 1 Chlorine @ 95% reduction of free chlorine, with the SC providing > 1,000 gallons and the ST >2,000 gallons.

CERAMIKX™ filters are offered in a fully cleanable model.  2.50" O.D. model ST with standard end caps designed to fit most standard 10" housings.   this filter can easily be cleaned with "just the wipe of a sponge".

EXTRUDED CARBON = EXCEPTIONAL VALUE

CERAMIKX™ filters are manufactured using MATRIKX® extruded activated carbon particles fused into a uniform block with enhanced adsorptive capacity and efficiency. CERAMIKX™ filters flow in a radial (outside to inside) direction, providing increased dirt capacity and low pressure drop. Unlike granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, CERAMIKX™ cartridges will not channel or bypass, due to the extreme uniformity of their extruded activated carbon core.

No Channelling No Fluidising No Bypassing
Eliminates Release of Carbon Fines
Lowest extractables, pure materials of construction
Maximum service life, resistance to fouling
Fully cleanable
Manufactured using FDA-approved materials

Notes

Chlorine capacity is the estimated capacity in gallons during which the filter will remove >90% of influent chlorine (2 ppm) when operating at a given flow.
Particulate rating is for the removal of a given size as determined from single-pass particulate counting results.

The CERAMIKX filter has been tested to meet the material requirements of NSF Standards 42, 53, and 58.
The CERAMIKX filter has been tested to meet the performance requirements of NSF Standard 42 for Class 1 Chlorine reduction and Standard 53 for Class 1 Turbidity and Cyst reduction.
