Features: Three different filter cartridges offer multiple, more effective filtration functions, effectively blocking rust, sand, and viscous substances like bacteria and vermiculite.
The unique KDF filter effectively blocks rust and residual chlorine, eliminating odors. Its unique technology adheres to, removes, and converts heavy metals into zinc, increasing the zinc content in the water. The copper-zinc potential difference of KDF generates a microcurrent in the water, killing bacteria and inhibiting microbial growth.
Large-area activated carbon provides strong adhesion to chemicals such as pesticides, detergents, and herbicides; it also adheres to microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, spores, and parasites.
A powerful filter membrane blocks substances larger than 0.1 microns, including bacteria (generally between 1-5 microns) and smaller viruses (such as coronaviruses at 0.125 microns).
Five layers of filter media effectively remove contaminants from the water.

1. AC-PP-KDF-10-NL
PP Cotton
PP (Polypropylene) Polypropylene (PP) is a very stable plastic material that does not release harmful substances when immersed in water. PP can be drawn into threads and woven into a highly effective filter media. Depending on the weaving method, it can filter particles of 20, 10, and 5 microns in size, such as rust, sand, and viscous substances like mycelia.
KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) is a filter media composed of a high-purity copper-zinc alloy. It reacts with pollutants in the water through a redox reaction based on the potential difference between copper and zinc. Total Dissolvable Solids (TDS) in water pollutants include heavy metals such as lead, nickel, cadmium, copper, and mercury, which are water-soluble free ions. Through redox reactions:
Pb²⁺ (lead ions) + Zn (solid zinc) -------> Pb (solid lead) + Zn²⁺ (zinc ions)
The zinc on the KDF (Kinetic Dioxide) electrode dissolves into free ions in the water, while lead ions in the water adhere to the KDF, thus removing heavy metals and increasing the zinc content in the water.
Cl₂ (chlorine) + Zn (solid zinc) -------> 2Cl⁻ (chloride) + Zn²⁺ (zinc ions)
The zinc on the KDF dissolves into free ions in the water, while the chlorine in the water is converted into harmless chloride.
The copper-zinc potential difference of the KDF generates a microcurrent in the water, which has the function of killing bacteria and inhibiting microbial growth.
2. AC-GAC-10-NL
GAC Granular Activated Carbon
Activated carbon exhibits strong adhesion to larger chemical molecules such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including pesticides, detergents, and pharmaceuticals. This adhesion is chemically known as Van der Waals force. High-quality activated carbon provides a vast surface area, adhering to contaminants in water and purifying it.
Additionally, activated carbon also adheres to microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, spores, and parasites.
3. AC-CTO-HF-10-NL
Activated Carbon Rod/Ultrafiltration Membrane (Polysulfone Hollow Fiber Membrane)
Ultrafiltration membranes are filtration membranes made of polysulfone hollow fibers. The pore size is 0.01 micrometers, but due to industrial errors, pores as small as 0.05 micrometers may exist. Additionally, water pressure may allow substances slightly larger than 0.05 micrometers to pass through, so it is generally labeled as below 0.1 micrometers.
Reference: Bacteria are generally between 1-5 micrometers in size, viruses are smaller, and coronaviruses are 0.125 micrometers in size.
