Description

The Xstream Alka filter can raise the pH to 8.5 constantly for the life of the filter.

This a special grade of Magnesium which is very sacrificial so it lends it’s self to a very quick rise in pH making it suitable to post RO work.

Like all sacrificial alkaliser cartridges this one will leech a small amount of magnesium into the final drinking water. The rate of magnesium introduced will vary from each situation but testing has shown on average an increase of approx 20-45 ppm.

This cartridges needs to be pre-flushed to clear any fine particles so we suggest a wash time directly off the mains pressure or approx 3-5 minutes prior to use. Any system containing these cartridges have already been pre-washed but replacements are sold dry and require pre-rinsing.

Even after rinsing it’s likely the TDS may be as high as 70 – 100 ppm depending on the rinse times and methods but this will quickly decrease to the average output.

It’s essential that you have carbon taste and odour cartridge like the 10JG5M installed after the Xstream GT6-0 Alk cartridge to improve the taste of the minerals added. So you should order both cartridges at the same time if you are no currently using the Xstream alk filter.

The life of the cartridge will be dictated by the pH result. If you see the pH of your final water dropping below a point you are satisfied with, then it’s time to replace the Alk Cartridge, we feel this will be between 12 and 24 months.

Life span 12 months depending on water quality.

For maximum media contact time the recommended flow rate is 3-LPM. The filters will flow at a faster rate if required but benefits maybe reduced.

The filters are supplied with Straight 1/4″ Push-in Tube fittings.

These filters fit the 50mm or 2″ mounting clips
