INDICATIONS FOR USE
1, 2, 3 & 4-Month sterile water filters provide a barrier against waterborne microorganisms such as bacteria
FILT'RAY
2G
(Legionella pneumophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram negative bacilli, nontuberculous Mycobacteria), fungi
(Aspergillus sp, Fusarium sp), protozoa and particles originating in the water distribution system. The microfiltration membrane
protects immune-supressed patients and vulnerable people. Filters are necessary for the care of hospitalised, immune-suppressed
patients in high-risk areas such as bone marrow transplant and organ transplant units, oncology services, intensive care units,
resuscitation, neonatal services and any other places that care for this type of patient.

DESCRIPTION
The FILT'RAY
filters are intended to produce bacteriologically controlled water at the point-of-use. These devices retain
2G
bacteria, including opportunistic waterborne pathogenic microorganisms such as Legionella spp., Legionella pneumophila,
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and others via a microfiltration membrane. This microfiltration technology ensures as a higher
bacteriological quality than the potable water of the water plumbing system. Please note, the FILT'RAY
latex, nor tissue or by-products of animal origin, neither are they derived from blood or any substance considered as a medicine.
FILT'RAY
disposable water filters are designed to ensure water safety at the point-of-use. They are recommended in
2G
the procedures for management and prevention of healthcare associated infections.
FILT'RAY
filters use a 0.1μm nominal and 0.2μm absolute tubular membrane filtration technology of sterilising grade (see 9 -A).
2G
The filters provide a high-performance level of water microfiltration while delivering a comfortable flow for users.
Microbiological challenges, conducted in laboratories with Brevundimonas diminuta, Legionella pneumophila and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa species on FILT'RAY
microorganisms greater than 0.1μm nominal / 0.2μm absolute and qualify the filter as a sterilising grade filter (see 9 -A).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Warnings:
• Filter installation must conform with professional aseptic techniques. Hands must be disinfected prior to installation.
Inappropriate installation may result in a source of contamination or retro-contamination.
• Make sure that the individual unit packaging (plastic bag) is not punctured or torn and that the filter is not damaged.
If this is the case, do not use the device, as the performance can no longer be ensured.
General information:
• The shower head filter (screw-on) features a standard fitting and can therefore be connected to all flexible shower hoses.
• The tap, wall-mounted shower and in-line filters require fast-fix connectors and/or tubing connectors, contact us for a list
of commercially available adaptors.
Installation:
1. Turn off the water supply.
2. If this is the first installation: remove the original shower head or fit the adaptor, if necessary, for the tap, wall-mounted
shower or in-line filter (see removal below).
3. Remove the used FILT'RAY
4. Carefully open the individual unit packaging (bag), making sure that the filter remains inside the bag. Do not touch
the coloured end of the tap or the shower head with your fingers to avoid contamination.
5 . Keeping the filter in the bag, screw the shower head filter onto the end of the hose or clip on the tap or wall-mounted
shower filter. Clip the inlet of the in-line filter on to the adaptor in the direction of the arrow indicating water flow on the label.
6. The bag can then be removed.
7. Turn the water on for a few seconds to check that the adaptor(s) and the filter are perfectly watertight.
In the case of leaks, repeat the installation procedure, using a new filter if needed.
