The Culligan Aqua-Cleer SLIM is a reverse osmosis device offering the most complete solution for high quality refined water. The R.O. membranes retain most of the salts present in the water, eliminating unwanted substances. Pretreatment by cartridge ensures clarity and the absence of unpleasant tastes and odors. It is designed to be installed under the kitchen sink, but also in the underbaseboard (having a minimum height of 12 cm.). The system has a bypass for mixing the water to service with filtered and dechlorinated water, through which the residual salinity of the product water can be adjusted. Also, the Culligan Pure filter ensures that the water is free of any contamination. The ultrafiltration cartridge consists of special membranes (MediSulfone® UF Polysulfone) that prevent the passage of all substances with molecular weight greater than 15K Dalton (0.005 micron). Bacteria, viruses and endotoxins are retained by two mechanisms: one based on the size of the pores and one due to the adsorption capacity of the membrane. The system is equipped with a one-way faucet for drawing the refined water. An ECU controls the operation of the system and management of: filter alarms, anti-flooding, liter-counter. Aqua-Cleer SLIM is arranged for the installation of optional after-treatment accessory kits, such as: • Culligan AS3 filter, specific for Arsenic removal • External anti-flooding kit The system is available in the following versions: • Aqua-Cleer SLIM consisting of: 1 Evo Carbon Block (inside the system); 1 Booster Pump; 2 RO modules. • Aqua-Cleer SLIM PLUS consisting of: 1 Evo Carbon Block (outside the system); 1 Booster Pump; 3 RO modules.
