INSERTS for EXCITO HF CRT AQUAFILTER COMPLETE HF-CRT

Complete cartridge set for the EXCITO HF CRT system

The EXCITO-HF-CRT set from Aquafilter has been designed to work with the EXCITO system. The set includes three 2 1/2" inline cartridges:

• AIPRO-20MS – mechanical cartridge,

• AIPRO-3-L – two-stage softening and iron-removal cartridge,

• AICRO-L4 – two-stage carbon cartridge with KDF® media.

The set has been designed to support several key water purification processes at once. It removes mechanical contaminants, reduces iron and hydrogen sulfide, lowers water hardness, and also reduces chlorine, pesticides, phenol, benzene, and selected heavy metals. As a result, the water gains better taste and odor, and the entire system operates in a more predictable and effective way.

Main user benefits

• Removes mechanical contaminants (rust, sand, silt, suspended solids)

• Removes iron ions and hydrogen sulfide

• Reduces water hardness (replaces calcium and magnesium ions with sodium ions)

• Removes heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead)

• Removes metallic taste and odor from water

• Removes up to 99% of free chlorine from water

• Removes organic contaminants

• Removes phenol and benzene from water

• Removes pesticides

• Improves water taste and odor

• Has PZH certification

How do HF CRT cartridges work?

AIPRO-20MS – 20 µm mechanical filtration

The polypropylene nonwoven cartridge stands out for its very good contaminant absorption. Its structure resembles foam, with a large number of open-cell microbubbles on the surface. This design supports effective capture of solid particles present in tap water.

AIPRO-20MS removes primarily sand, silt, rust, and other mechanical contaminants, including suspended solids no smaller than 20 µm. This is the first stage of the set, helping protect the following cartridges and stabilizing the operation of the entire filtration system.

AIPRO-3-L – iron removal and softening

AIPRO-3-L is a two-stage iron-removal and softening cartridge filled with special granules: softening and iron-removal media. The cartridge has a high capacity for capturing iron ions, which makes it suitable where water causes a metallic aftertaste, unpleasant odor, or increased user discomfort.

The cartridge removes hydrogen sulfide, dissolved and undissolved iron, and the metallic taste and odor of water. In addition, it reduces water hardness by exchanging calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions. This is especially useful in installations where water treatment is intended to improve the everyday quality of domestic water.

AICRO-L4 – activated carbon and KDF® media

AICRO-L4 has a two-layer construction. The first layer, based on KDF® media, is responsible for removing hydrogen sulfide, pesticides, heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium, as well as lowering the concentration of iron ions. The media also exhibits bacteriostatic properties that hinder the growth of bacteria on the filter material.

The second layer, made of carbon from coconut shells, reduces chlorine, chlorinated solvents, aromatic hydrocarbons, polycyclic compounds, phenol, benzene, and other organic substances. At the same time, it improves the taste and odor of the water, making everyday use more comfortable.

Range of reduced contaminants

The EXCITO HF CRT cartridge set has been designed for multi-stage water purification. In practice, this means reducing many groups of contaminants and unwanted components:

• sand, rust, silt, and other mechanical suspended solids,

• chlorine and free chlorine,

• pesticides,

• phenol and benzene,

• iron, including dissolved and undissolved forms,

• hydrogen sulfide,

• heavy metals: arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead,

• metallic taste and odor of water,

• organic substances.

In addition, the set reduces water hardness by exchanging calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions, supporting more comfortable household water use.

Operation and important notes

The service life of the cartridge set is from 3 to 6 months. The actual operating period depends on water quality and the amount of filtered water. Regular cartridge replacement helps maintain filtration efficiency and the proper operating parameters of the system.

The set is suitable as a consumable for the EXCITO system. Although it is not a reverse osmosis filter or a classic osmosis filter, it may be chosen by users looking for effective cartridges for home solutions that improve water quality and support everyday water treatment.
