The XL7000 is NSF-certified for near total reduction of:
Also over 99.99% reduction of water-borne heterotrophic bacteria by membrane filtration as tested by manufacturer (3M) and verified by manufacturer's laboratory.
Better Waters incorporates a patented Integrated Membrane Pre-activated Carbon (I.M.P.A.C.T.) technology that blends the high efficiency of carbon media with the durability of a microporous membrane filter into a single pharmaceutical grade cartridge. This unique process dramatically reduces pressure drop and increases flow rate, resulting in longer cartridge life.
Operating pressure | 30 - 125 psi |
Operating temperature | 40 - 100°F (4 - 38°C) |
Space required* | 4.5”(W) x 4.5”(D) x 16.125”(H) |
*: Allow min. 2.25” clearance for cartridge replacement.
Fine enough to remove bacteria and cysts, which are typically 1-2 micron in size. The naked eye can see down to about 40 microns. 0.2 micron filtration is frequently used in research labs to ensure removal of bacteria.
With full-flow technology, no dedicated faucet is needed. This is a unique feature among high-performance filtration systems. The XL7000 can be installed directly into the cold water line supplying a sink, thus filtering all the cold water to the tap. Ideal for all food prep, fruit and vegetable washing, rapid fill of pots and coffee makers etc.
Theoretically yes, but keep in mind most water used for washing is hot. A typical family of four uses about 3500 gallons of cold water at their kitchen sink in one year. The XL7000 is NSF-certified for 6000 gallons, and it's recommended to replace it once a year in any case.
For restaurants and other food-service applications, the XL7000 can be manifolded in parallel to accommodate higher flow rates (and may thereby offer an exponential increase in cartridge longevity).
