CR-100 Capsule Filter - Technology

Aquamira CR Filtration Technology^TM:  consists of a formulation of activated coconut shell carbon, porous plastic and other propriatory filter aids.  The components are molded under controlled heat and pressure in a process known as "sintering".  The result is a solid but porous block structure with uniform pore distribution, high flow rates and long filter life.  This filter block is then assembled, sonic welded, tested and lot stamped, under tightly  controlled conditions in our production facility in Logan, Ut.

Testing and Certification:

All Aquamira CR rated filters are tested in accordance to NSF 42 protocols to reduce chlorine, taste and odor.  CR rated filters are also pre-tested in accordance to NSF 53 protocols to remove >99.9% of Cryptosporidium and Giardia.

Miraguard^TM is tested according to EPA/JIS guidelines for antimicrobial performance.

Filter Flow Rate, throughput capacity, and strength testing is completed on every lot of filters prior to acceptance for production, and are traceable using the lot code imprinted on every filter.
