Ultra Defender Replacement Filter Cartridge (2.5 x 10)
Posted: May 16, 2018
Filter Size: 2.5 x 10 Inch suitable for under sink applications
Service Life: 6 months (subject to water conditions)
Defender filtration cartridge
contains a special blend of advanced media made up from Catalytic Activated Coconut Carbon coated with iron-hydroxide, Active Ceramic Media, Zeolite, Dolomite and silverised GAC carbon. CACC is (highly activated) by coating a positive (+) charge which enhances the adsorption of contaminants that have negative charge and is an advanced media designed to adsorb very high level of chloramines which are replacing chlorine in the disinfection process and form Trihalomethanes (THMs) – a cancer causing substance. Catalysed with Iron, Iron Catalyst has the highest Oxidation and Adsorption pores Inside as well as outside the activated carbon. The removal of tannins Including humic acid, fulvic acid and major constituents of natural organic matter. Humic substances with chlorine produce disinfection by products such as Trihalomethanes (THMs). A very big problem with organics are bacterial growth in water distribution systems by serving as food source that induce unpleasant taste and colour in drinking water. Catalytic coconut carbon coated with iron-hydroxide is tested to meet NSF 61 Standard
Zeolites
Zeolites are natural volcanic minerals with a number of unique characteristics. Zeolites were formed when volcanic ash was deposited in ancient alkaline lakes.
Based on numerous studies, Zeolite is effective adsorbent in numerous processes of purification of drinking water and wastewater, such as the removal of ammonia, nitrogen, dissolved organic matter, radioactive substances and the removal of heavy metals.
Zeolite is tested to meet NSF 61 Standard
Active Ceramics
Mg-Q is outstanding for sterilizing water and it emits far infrared and radiant energy, another outstanding ability of this ceramic based stone is it does not change the water’s composition, taste or smell. Which results in the water treated with Mg-Q having the same taste of natural mineral water. Mg-Q has strong sterilizing power on all hospital bacteria’s, which are contagious by water having a very strong sterilizing power against Escherichia coli, cholera, paratyphoid, typhoid, staphylococcus, yellow staphylococcus, Salmonella typhi, diphtheria fungus and spirillum to name a few. Because of its unique characteristics Mg-Q removes harmful heavy metals and radioactive isotope such as lead, Cesium 137, Cadmium, Strontiurm 90 which may be dissolved in water source. The water in which Mg-Q has been added to has abundant inorganic minerals, and the ration of Calcium and Magnesium become more than 3:1, which improves to control harmful activity oxygen. Another of Mg-Q qualities it can make the water more alkaline. Mg-Q is inorganic that does not dissolve. Thus, it does not effect in components, oxidization, thickness, taste, or smell at all. Mg-Q water tastes like mineral water.
FDA tested ceramic which emits far infrared and radiant energy with strong sterilizing power.
KDF Media
Patented KDF process media consist of high-purity copper-zinc formulation. These substances exchange electrons and bond with chlorine and other heavy metals contained in the source water.
Through a chemical process known as redox (oxidation/reduction), KDF process media removes up to 98% of water-soluble cations (positively-charged ions) which will remove chlorine, lead, mercury, iron and hydrogen sulfide. The redox reaction also inhibits the growth of bacteria, algae, and fungi. As an added benefit, KDF media reduce lime scale, mould, and fungi. Wherever KDF Media is used, it can eliminate the need for costly, and sometimes harmful, chemical treatments. KDF media is completely safe and meets EPA and Food and Drug Administration standards for levels of zinc and copper in potable water,
KDF media is certified by the NSF Standard 61 and Standard 42 standards.
