CW 40 level 4 combination cartridge carbon block & micro membrane
Filter cartridge for CASCADA WHITE, equipped with easychange technology for easy changing.
Filter fineness carbon block 0.8 µm, micro membrane 0.1 µm
The CW 40 filter cartridge contains an innovative filter medium made of activated carbon (Activated Carbon Composite ACC) with a special fiber to protect against germs. The raw material for activated carbon is coconut shells. The combination and the matrix used achieve a significant increase in filter effectiveness. Protected by patent law. You can find detailed pollutant retention rates in the table below.
Please note regarding further withdrawal options:
Activated carbon is able to remove dissolved organic trace substances, such as pesticide active ingredients and their metabolites or drug residues, from the water by adsorbing these substances. The more non-polar the substances are, the better they are adsorbed on activated carbon. Ionic substances, such as minerals, salts and lime, remain in the water

In addition to the carbon block, a hollow fiber membrane with an absolute filter fineness of 0.1 micrometers is integrated as a post-filter. The membrane meets the microbiological requirements of the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). The membrane has a very low pressure loss at high capacity thanks to an extremely large surface structure. These are suitable as germ barriers with a reduction of at least 6-log levels (i.e. >99.9999%) to prevent germ nests, biofilm formation, etc. Further practical tests of the CW40 replacement cartridge[0.8µm carbon block with a terminal 0.1µm MF- Membrane] were carried out by an independent laboratory and the effectiveness was confirmed.
Quality management
Design, development, production and sales of water filters and filter components certified by TÜV NORD, Essen, Germany in accordance with quality management ISO 9001: 2008. Recertified in July 2009
MF hollow fiber membrane: NSF certification. Housing pressure test:
Nominal pressure PN6 [Pressure Nominal] according to EN 1333 [nominal pressure level]; Static pressure test and dynamic pressure test of the filter housing DIN EN 14989:2004 is fulfilled (carried out by the manufacturer based on DIN EN 14989).
The quality is based on more than 30 international patents, which were developed by a scientific team in our own chemical and microbiological laboratory facilities.
Appropriate control facilities are available for quality assurance (Protocol NSF 42, NSF 53 and EPA Microbiology)

The filter cartridge has to be changed after 6 months (according to DIN EN 806-5, Appendix A). In principle, up to 10,000 liters of water can be filtered within 6 months. However, an earlier change may be necessary if water flow is noticeably reduced. This is not a defect in the filter used, but rather an indication of an increased occurrence of fine particles in unfiltered water.
Use only with cold water, protect from frost
