Ultrafiltration is a membrane filtration process in which water is forced through a semi-permeable membrane (hollow fiber technology) using standard household water pressure, so that only fresh, clean water and dissolved minerals are allowed through.
Makromolekulare Substances and small particles such as heavy metals and pollutants are filtered.
The exclusion limit of ultrafiltration is in the range between 2 and 100 nanometers, in contrast to 5 microns for sediment filters.
This means that much smaller particles are filtered out. The filtration process allows up to 99.8% of all taste and pollutants to be removed.
The trace elements and minerals are not removed from the water.
This filter is specific to the following devices:
