Reduction (influent challenge concentration 2.0 mg/l)
² The actual capacities in operation can be higher or lower than the capacities stated in the table. The capacities depend on the quality of the input water, the flow
rate, the intake water pressure and the flow continuity. The carbonate hardness reduction is reached in accordance with Section 5.5.5 EN 14898:2006 for the
stated capacities.
3 The concentration of chlorine in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the permissible limit for water laving the system, as
specified in NSF/ANSI 42. While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance of the system may vary.*

3 Usage and design
3.1 Assigned use
This BWT filter cartridge ...
is only to be used for decarbonising cold water fulfilling the legal requirements for drinking water.
reduces carbonate* and lime hardness and thus protects coffee and espresso machines, hot/cold
water machines, steamers, combi steamers and/or ice machines against excess lime scale deposits.
can also be installed upstream of steam generators for medical applications to reduce excess lime
scale deposits.
improves flavour of beverages and taste of food by removing substances responsible for taste and
odor (e.g. chlorine).
filters particles* out of the water.
3.2 Design and function of the filter system
1 Prefiltration: Removal of particles
2 Active carbon prefiltration: Substances responsible for taste and odor
3
dation of ion exchanger
3 Ion exchanger: Decarbonisation
4 Active carbon filtration: removal of chlorine, also from bypass water
5 Particle filter: removal of particles
4 Operating and safety instructions
Despite complying with all safety precautions, risks remain especially in case of misuse or inappropriate
handling. Each technical device is to be maintained and serviced regularly to function properly.
