Description
Basics
- Allows a two-step filtration process in only one cartridge.
- The outer activated carbon Monoblock® guaranties the removal of heavy metals, medical residues, chlorine and pesticides.
- The variant-specific filter insertion into the cartridge provides an additional special filtration:
- Vitally important minerals, like magnesium and calcium, are not removed from the water.
- The filter cartridge consists of an activated carbon monobloc (Monoblock®) material based on coconut shell.
- For more details, please refer to the respective variant.
Variants of the IFP
We keep the IFP filter cartridge in seven different variants, that differ regarding to thier filter mesh and filter insertion. The following table shall give you an overview of the benefits and characteristics of the different variants.
| Filter mesh | 0,02 µm | 0,15 µm | 2,5 µm | 0,75 µm | 8 µm | 17 µm | 34 µm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flow rate (at 4 bar) | 2,0 l/min | 7,0 l/min | 1,5 l/min | 7,3 l/min | 33 l/min | 54 l/min | 54 l/min |
| Retention rate for pesticides, ...* | 71 % | 66 % | 76 % | 77 % | 51 % | 39 % | 25 % |
| Retention rate for chlorine* | 86 % | 81 % | 83 % | 83 % | 66 % | 59 % | 50 % |
| Retention rate for heavy metals* | 64 % | 59 % | 99 % | 70 % | 44 % | 33 % | 20 % |
| Blocks bacteria | Yes | Yes | No | No | No | No | No |
| Blocks viruses | Yes | No | No | No | No | No | No |
| Adsorptive retention capacity | 3 m3 | 5 m3 | 1,5 m3 | 8 m3 | 11 m3 | 12,5 m3 | 15 m3 |
| Particle retention capacity | 11 m3 | 11 m3 | 16 m3 | 11 m3 | 20 m3 | 23 m3 | 26 m3 |
* The indicated retention rates refer to the nominal flow rate at 4 bar. If the actual pressure or the real flow rate is lower, the contact time between water and activated carbon gets longer. Because of this the real retention rates tend to be higher than stated.
