FCBL10 Aqua Vita carbon block filter

Sintered carbon block for effective water treatment

The FCBL10 Aqua Vita cartridge is made of sintered activated carbon. This design combines mechanical filtration with adsorption of contaminants responsible for deteriorating the quality of utility and drinking water. This solution is particularly useful wherever improving the comfort of everyday water use, its taste, odor, and reducing contact with chlorine and its derivatives are important.

The compressed carbon block structure ensures filtration at the 10-micron level while also supporting stable cartridge operation. An additional membrane protecting against carbon dust increases convenience of use and helps maintain the cleanliness of operation of the entire filtration system.

What does the FCBL10 Aqua Vita cartridge remove?

The sintered activated carbon used in this model effectively reduces a wide range of undesirable substances present in water. The cartridge removes:

• from 98% to 99% of free chlorine,
• chlorine-derived solvents,
• aromatic hydrocarbons,
• up to 85% of chlorine-derived pesticides,
• polyaromatic compounds,
• phenol,
• benzene,
• organic substances.

The result of the cartridge’s operation is a noticeable improvement in the taste and odor qualities of water. The reduction of chlorine and organic compounds also translates into greater comfort in everyday water use at home.

Why is sintered activated carbon so effective?

Sintered carbon stands out with a much larger specific surface area and a greater number of active sites. In practice, this means more intensive contact of water with the filtration medium and better use of the cartridge’s adsorption properties.

Thanks to this, the FCBL10 Aqua Vita offers about 25% greater service performance compared to other carbon cartridges. This is an important benefit for people who expect effective filter operation while maintaining good flow and high operating comfort.

Key advantages and applications

• It has an additional membrane protecting against carbon dust.
• Flow rate up to 15 l/minute.
• Allows use in apartments and small buildings for the entire installation.
• High quality allows the cartridge to be used in osmosis and under-sink systems.
• Improves the taste and odor qualities of water, removes chlorine and its derivatives.
• Protects the skin against dryness and irritation.
• Additionally, the compressed structure provides filtration at the 10-micron level.

The cartridge can be used in various configurations of domestic water treatment systems. It performs well as part of under-sink installations, as well as in solutions cooperating with membrane filtration, such as reverse osmosis. In a properly selected setup, it can be an important stage supporting the operation of devices such as an osmosis filter or an osmosis membrane.

Everyday comfort of use

The reduction of chlorine and its derivatives matters not only for the taste of water intended for drinking or preparing meals. It also means greater comfort during everyday skin contact with utility water. Limiting substances that worsen its properties can help reduce the feeling of dryness and irritation.

The combination of high adsorption efficiency with a flow rate of up to 15 l/min means that the cartridge can operate in applications requiring convenient water draw-off without a noticeable drop in the functionality of the installation.
