FCCBKDF Aquafilter carbon cartridge with KDF media

Carbon cartridge with KDF for more effective cold water filtration

The Aquafilter FCCBKDF model is filled with activated carbon from coconut shells and KDF media. This combination is responsible for improving the quality of utility and drinking water by reducing unwanted substances that affect taste, odor, and the comfort of everyday water use.

Activated carbon from coconut shells removes chlorine, chlorinated solvents, and aromatic hydrocarbons from water, as well as polyaromatic compounds, phenol, benzene, and organic substances. As a result, the water becomes more pleasant in taste and odor, which is important both for drinking and for preparing beverages and food.

KDF media supports limiting the growth of bacterial flora on the filter bed and also reduces the concentration of heavy metals present in water, such as arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury. Additionally, it helps remove iron, hydrogen sulfide, and some pesticides.

Key advantages of the Aquafilter FCCBKDF cartridge

• contains activated carbon and KDF media
• removes up to 99% of chlorine from water
• removes organic contaminants
• removes some pesticides
• removes iron compounds and hydrogen sulfide
• removes heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury)
• removes phenol and benzene from water
• improves water taste and odor
• has a final filter that prevents the media from escaping outside the cartridge

How does the combination of activated carbon and KDF media work?

Activated carbon from coconut shells

The cartridge uses a highly absorbent carbon medium responsible for reducing chlorine and many substances that worsen the organoleptic properties of water. Reducing the presence of chlorine, phenol, benzene, organic compounds, and selected chlorinated solvents results in better taste and a more neutral water odor.

KDF media

KDF media supports the filtration process where additional reduction of selected inorganic contaminants is important. It helps reduce the concentration of heavy metals, including arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury, as well as iron. At the same time, it supports the removal of hydrogen sulfide and some pesticides and helps inhibit the growth of bacterial flora on the filter bed.

Application

The FCCBKDF cartridge is designed for the treatment of cold drinking or utility water. It can be part of a household water filtration system wherever the goal is to improve water quality and reduce substances that worsen its taste, odor, and overall usability.

Thanks to its design, the filter cartridge is used in systems preparing water for everyday consumption, cooking, and other typical household applications. In practice, it is also sometimes used as part of solutions such as an osmotic filter or reverse osmosis system, provided dimensional and technical compatibility has been maintained by the system user.

Comfort of use and benefits in everyday operation

After installing the cartridge, the user gains water with better taste and odor properties, which is especially important in the case of tap water with clearly noticeable chlorine. Reducing selected organic contaminants, phenol, benzene, hydrogen sulfide, or some heavy metals increases the comfort of everyday water use.

An additional advantage is the final filter, which prevents the media from escaping outside the cartridge. This is an important design element that contributes to the stable operation of the cartridge in the filtration system.
