FDA compliance

All polypropylene material used in manufacturing complies with the regulations of the FDA title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations Sections 174.5, 177.1520, and 177.1630, as applicable for food and beverage contact.

Filter Removal Efficiency

Beta Ratio: Upstream particle counts / Downstream particle counts

These values were determined through laboratory testing using the single-pass test method, water at 2.5 gpm/10" cartridge, with latex beads, coarse and fine test dust. Removal efficiencies were determined using dual laser source particle counters. Actual field conditions may vary.
