This is the replacement cartridge is for the Protector Ultra-D for UltraStream on Well Water. The cartridge should be replaced yearly.
The ULTRA-D Sub-micron Depth Filtration Series manufactured using a proprietary, patented, electro-adsorptive media technology, are capable of removing submicron pathogens and inorganic contaminants through electro-adhesion and ion exchange. This technology makes it possible for a nonwoven media to produce filtration efficiency comparable to ultra membrane filtration but at very low-pressure drop, with high flow rates and high loading capacity working equally well in fresh, brackish or salt waters. The ULTRA-D media consists of coated micro-glass fibres produced using a wet-laid non-woven manufacturing technology. The base media is laminated between layers of spun-bond to provide both strength and pleat support. The media in the ULTRA-D filter is NSF 61-approved (Drinking Water System Components-Health Effects), and USP Class VI testing and endotoxin testing.
In addition to its submicronic benefits, the ULTRA Red-D Protector filter (version sold above) comes with powdered activated carbon with an average particle size of only 8 microns. Activated carbon at this particle size produces remarkably high dynamic adsorption*.
The ULTRA-D filter reduces or removes the following pathogens:
- >99.99% viruses (polio, rotavirus, norovirus, etc.)**
- >99.99% bacteria (e coli, legionella, pseudomonas, etc.)**
- >99.95% cysts (giardia, cryptosporidium, etc.)**
**Tested by a certified laboratory in the U.S. (testing was done at 6.5pH)
The ULTRA-D filter removes or reduces the following heavy metals:
- >95% Lead**
- >80% Ferrous Iron**
- >95% Arsenic V**
- >95% Cadmium**
- >85% Chromium**
- >75% Selenium**
- >60% Mercury
**Tested by a certified laboratory in the U.S. (testing was done at 6.5pH)
The ULTRA-D filter removes or reduces the following organics and inorganic chemicals:
- Chlorine (carbon version)
- Bromine (carbon version)
- Iodine (carbon version)
- VOCs (volatile organic compounds)
- PCBs and BPA
- Residual pharmaceuticals
- Biofouling precursors: organic acids, proteins, polysaccharides
Applications for and industries benefiting from the ULTRA-D filtration process:
- Residential use where cost-effective systems must be used and the presence of pathogenic-laden water is of ongoing concern
- Food and beverage industry for high purity water
- Pharmaceutical industry for high purity water
- Commercial pre-RO and ultrafiltration treatment to sustain the life of the membranes
- Greywater recycling for removal of pathogens
- Desalination for pre-filtration
- Other high purity applications
- Water recycling treatment for circuit board industry
Benefits of using the ULTRA-D Filter Cartridges versus other media:
- Finer particle retention and filtration capacity (2 to 3-micron pore size comparable to a 0.02-micron size for virus removal)
- Higher loading capacity (up to 25 times greater)
- Greater efficiency in salt, brackish and freshwater
- Wider pH operating window (4-9pH)
- Very low-pressure drop (approximately 2 psi)
- Lower cost of ownership
- The capability of using one stand-alone filter system to achieve pathogen, heavy metal, taste and odour, chemical and organics removal or reduction (the carbon and silver version); for a broad range of applications including residential whole house point-of-entry and point-of-use water filtration; shower filters; portable water filtration for bottles and backpacks; unlimited commercial water filtration applications.
