Ceramic filters normally have a pore size of .3 micron or smaller. This prevents bacteria from passing through the filter. The filter can be cleaned two or three times and therefore are quite economical.
The ceramic water filter element provides the following benefits
1) Absolute filtration to 0.5 micron
2) Removes algae, rust, sediment and suspended solids.
3) Inhibits the growth and reduces the following harmful bacteria to better than 99.9%
E Coli
Cholera
Shigella
Salmonella
Klebsilella
4) Reduces Cryptosporidium by 99.9%
5) Reduces Guardia and other cysts by 99.9%
6) Reduces Turbidity
7) Ideally suited for applications where mains pressure is low or gravity fed applications.
8) Self sterilising does not require boiling.
This Filter is ideal to use as a second stage in a three stage filter.
