Based on the manufacturer’s internal testing. Performance claims are based on
independent laboratory and manufacturer’s internal test data.
Actual performance is dependent on influent water quality, flow rates, system
design, and application. Results may vary. Micron ratings are based on >85%
removal of the given particle size. Estimated capacity> 90% reduction in
chlorine at 2 ppm, >95% reduction in PFAS at 1500 ppt, > 83% reduction in
chloramine at 3ppm.
NOTES
Important Notice: Performance claims are based on a complete system,
including a filter, housing, and connection to a pressurized water source.
This filter must be placed in an appropriate system and operated according to
the system’s specifications in order to deliver the claimed performance. It is
essential to follow operational, maintenance, and filter replacement
requirements, as directed for each application, for this filter and system to
perform correctly. Read the Manufacturer’s Performance Data Sheet accompanying
the system and change the filter as suggested. The contaminants or other
substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all
users’ water.
- The performance of a given MATRIX carbon filter varies in direct proportion to the total weight of carbon in each filter.
- Projected chlorine taste and odor reduction capacity when tested in accordance with NSF/ANSI Standard 42 protocol.
- The nominal particulate rating is for >85% of a given size as determined from single-pass particle counting results.*
- Absolute particulate rating is for >99.9% of particles of a given size as determined from single-pass particle counting results.
- Actual results obtained will vary with various combinations of organic contaminants, changes in pH, or other conditions encountered in actual use.
- All information presented here is based on data believed to be reliable. It is offered for evaluation and verification but is not to be considered a warranty of any kind.
- MATRIX filters are designed to fit most standard household and commercial or industrial housings.
- Contact Filtrex Technologies Pvt. Ltd to check filter housing compatibility.
- After installation, follow the instructions on the label for flushing the carbon block prior to use.
Nominal Filter Filter rating indicates the approximate size particle, the majority of which does not pass through the filter. It is generally interpreted as meaning that 85% of the particles of the size to the nominal micron rating will be retained by the filter (WOA Glossary off items Third Edition, 3.97)
Absolute Filter Rating: Filter rating means that 99.9%(or essentially all) of the particles larger than a specific micron rating will be trapped on or within the filter (WOA Glossary of Terms, Third Edition, 3.97)
