For Use With Aquatic Life Ro Buddie+Di Reverse Osmosis Unit. Five Micron Sediment Filter Traps Sediment And Other Particulate Matter Like Dirt, Silt And Rust Which Will Affect The Taste And Appearance Of Your Water. The Activated Carbon In The Filter Reduces Chlorine And Conditions The Water Prior To The Ro Membrane.

The Sediment And Carbon Filters Are Both Rated For 1,500 Gallons Of Water To Pass Through Before Replacement. In Addition, The Sediment Cartridge Housing Is Made Of A Special Translucent Material That Allows You To See Build-Up On The Cartridge Itself. After The Water Is Filtered By The Membrane, There Is Usually A Small Amount Of Total Dissolved Solids (Tds) Left In The Water.

In Certain Non-Drinking Water Applications, It Is Important To Remove The Remaining Tds From The Water. This Is Accomplished By Filtering The Water Through A Resin That Is Charged With Cation And Anion Resins (H+ And Oh-). As The Resin Absorbs The Tds, It Will Change Color. When All Resin Has Changed Color, It Is Time To Replace The Di Filter.
