The system conform to NSF/ANSI 58 for the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated by test
data. While
20003 SP Hollow Fibre Membrane (RO),
testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary.
The influent water to the system shall include no organic solvents, Chlorine <2 mg/L, pH 7-8, Iron <2mg/L, Turbidity
<1 NTU and hardness <1000mg/L
“This system is acceptable for treatment of influent concentrations of no more than 27 mg/L Nitrate and 3 mg/L
Nitrite (in combination measured as N), and is certified for nitrate/nitrite reduction only for water supplies with
pressure of 140 kpa ( 20 psi) or greater.”
This system has been tested for the treatment of water containing pentavalent arsenic (also known as As (V), As
(+5), or arsenate) at concentrations of 0.30 mg/L or less. This system reduces pentavalent arsenic but may not
remove other forms of arsenic. This system is to be used on water supplies containing detectable free chlorine
residual or on water supplies that have been demonstrated to contain only pentavalent arsenic. Treatment with
chloramines (combined chlorine) is not sufficient to ensure complete conversion of trivalent arsenic to pentavalent
arsenic. Please see the Arsenic Facts section of the performance data sheet for further information.
Arsenic Facts
Arsenic (As) is a naturally occurring contaminant found in many ground waters. It generally occurs in two forms
(valences or oxidation states): pentavalent arsenic (also known as As(V), As(+5), or arsenate) and trivalent arsenic
(also known as As(III), As(+3), or arsenite). In natural ground water, arsenic may exist as trivalent arsenic,
pentavalent arsenic, or a combination of both. Although both forms of arsenic are potentially harmful to human
health, trivalent arsenic is considered more harmful than pentavalent arsenic. More information about arsenic and

This system is designed to remove only pentavalent arsenic. This treatment system does not provide a feature for
conversion of trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic. The system may remove some trivalent arsenic, however, it
has not been evaluated for its ability to remove trivalent arsenic.
Trivalent arsenic is generally more difficult to remove from drinking water than pentavalent arsenic. Trivalent
arsenic can be converted to pentavalent arsenic in the presence of an effective oxidant such as free chlorine. The
arsenic in water containing detectable free chlorine or that has been treated with another effective oxidant will be in
the pentavalent arsenic form.4 Treatment with chloramine (combined chlorine) is not sufficient to ensure complete
conversion of trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic.
Consumers using public water supplies can contact their utility to verify whether free chlorine treatment chemicals
are being used. Private water supplies and waters that do not have detectable free chlorine residuals should be
analyzed to determine the form(s) of arsenic present and the potential need for oxidation of trivalent arsenic to
pentavalent arsenic.
Arsenic does not generally impart color, taste, or smell to water, therefore, it can only be detected by a chemical
analytical test. Public water supplies are required to monitor treated water for total arsenic (trivalent arsenic plus
pentavalent arsenic) and the results are available to the public from the utility. Consumers using private water
sources will need to make arrangements for testing. A total arsenic test usually costs about $15-$30 and it is
recommended the test be conducted by a certified laboratory. Local health departments or environmental
protection agencies can help provide consumers with a list of certified laboratories. Some laboratories may also be
able to analyze specifically for (speciate) the form(s) of arsenic present in a water sample if requested.
This treatment system was tested under laboratory conditions as defined in NSF/ANSI 58 Drinking Water
Treatment Units – Health Effects and was found to reduce 0.30 mg/L of pentavalent arsenic in the test water to less
than 0.010 mg/L under standard testing conditions. Actual performance of the system may vary depending on
specific water quality conditions at the consumer's installation. Following installation of this system, the consumer
should have the treated water tested for total arsenic to verify arsenic reduction is being achieved and the system is
functioning properly.
The arsenic removal component of this system must be replaced at the end of its useful life of 1-2 years. The
