CeraUltra™ Candle These cleanable filter elements are designed to remove suspended solids, pathogenic bacteria, hydrogen sulfide, Chlorine, Mercury, Lead and VOC’s. In addition, they will improve taste and reduce trace contaminants. These filter elements have been tested in accordance with NSF protocols for cyst, turbidity, particulates, and chlorine reduction (Class 1). The cartridges are based on a Ceramic pre-filter shell. Inside the ceramic shell is a post-filter block carbon insert which is manufactured by combining powdered carbon blends and Zeolite to form a tightly packed matrix. The candle is fitted with a threaded plastic cap on one end.

Contaminant Removal:
Pathogenic bacteria
Cholera, Typhoid, Salmonella, Serratia, E. Coli, Fecal Coliform - >99.9999% removal 3rd Party Tested by AlControl Laboratories
Cysts
Cryptosporidium Parvum, Giardia Lamblia 100% removal
Sediment
0.5 micron Absolute; 0.2 - 0.45 micron with a filtration efficiency of >99.99% (based on tests by IBR Laboratories)
Organic Chemicals Pesticides, herbicides and organic solvents
Volatile Organic Chemical Compounds
Metals
Aluminum, Iron, Mercury and Lead Taste & Color Hydrogen Sulfide, Iron, etc.
Lead Removal
Lead is seldom found naturally in domestic water supply but can result from the dissolution of lead pipes which may still be in use in old water systems. The zeolite metal ion reduction medium in the CeraUltra element effectively reduces the lead content in drinking water.
Chlorine Capacity for removal 1500 Gallons
VOC removal 220 Gallons
Lead and Mercury 600 Gallons
