Contaminant Removal
The great majority of pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria and cysts are larger than one µ. The pore size of the ceramic filter element is controlled so that it will remove all suspended matter larger than 0.9 µ.
Pathogenic Bacteria
Chorela, Typhoid, Salmonella, Serratia, E. Coli, Fecal Coliform: >99.99% removal
Cysts
Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia: 100% removal (based on tests by Arizona State University)
Sediment
Down to 0.9 µ, 100%; 0.5-0.8 µ with a filter efficiency of >99.99% (based on tests by Spectrum Laboratories, Minneapolis, MN)
