CERAMIKX: All-Carbon, Sub-Micron Performance
* 99.996% E. coli reduction
* NSF Standard 53 Cyst reduction including Cryptosporidium and Giardia
* NSF Standard 42 Class I-Chlorine, Taste & Odor reduction
* Cost-efficient, combining the performance of a "ceramic candle” and activated carbon into one filter
* Cleans with "just the wipe of a sponge”
* 2 models fitting most standard housings
The "all-carbon” CERAMIKX filter combines the fine particulate reduction of a traditional ceramic filter with the chlorine, taste, and odor reduction of activated carbon. With 99.9996% reduction of E. coli, the 0.5 micron CERAMIKX filter meets NSF Standard 53 Class 1 criteria for particulate removal and turbidity reduction, and the control of cysts, including Cryptosporidium and Giardia. CERAMIKX filters also meet NSF Standard 42 for Class 1 Chlorine @ 95% reduction of free chlorine, with the SC providing >1,000 gallons and the ST >2,000 gallons.
CERAMIKX filters are offered in two (2) fully cleanable models. A 1.85" O.D. model SC with a BST screw-in end cap and a 2.50" O.D. model ST with standard end caps designed to fit most standard 10" housings. Both of these filters can easily be cleaned with "just the wipe of a sponge."

HYTREX II 1 Micron Particulate Depth Filter
This filter also removes giardia lamblia and cryptosporidium.
| GE Osmonics'® unique one step manufacturing process continuously extrudes and thermally bonds pure polypropylene microfibers into a complex filter matrix.
Microfilaments plus precise control maximize the positive filtration characteristics of graded density, tight micron cutoffs and maximum void area with millions of tortuous paths. This fully automated manufacturing process assures consistent quality, filter to filter, year in and year out. New thermal and vacuum finishing procedures produce exceptionally clean filters imprinted for easy identification in the field. |
An Entirely New Technology
Years ago there were string-wound cartridge filters. Later, chopped fiber cartridges cemented with binders were developed. Then in 1978, Hytrex dramatically improved cartridge filter performance.
Proprietary technology supported by 23 patents made Hytrex filters unique in the cartridge filtration industry. Since 1978, field experience in hundreds of applications has proved Hytrex filters’ superiority. Thousands of repeat customers have confirmed Hytrex filters’ value. Osmonics’ research, engineering and manufacturing expertise has generated further improvements to Hytrex.
What Hytrex Is Not
- it is not strings of
yarn mechanically wound around a separate core with added lubricants
and anti-static agents.
- it is not short chopped fibers molded together with chemical
binders.
- it is not layers of non-woven microfibers.
Pleated, molded and layered microfiber cartridges function
for the most part only as surface filters.
Particles collect primarily on the surface, blinding the filter
and reducing its effective life.
In molded filters, binders such as melamine, formaldehyde
and phenols become extractables and leach into the filtrate. Their
decomposition allows fibers to loosen and migrate. In string-wound
filters, additives can leach and particles can slip through channels
in the windings, contaminating the filtrate.
What Hytrex Filters Offer
That Other Cartridges Cannot
True Graded Density
- lower density at the surface of the filter with progressively
higher density toward the center.
- particles are trapped throughout the entire cross section
of the filter, creating superior dirt-holding capacity.
- no surface blinding, which reduces flow and increases
filter changeouts.
- high flow rates with low pressure drop throughout the
range of flows.
- longest service life compared with competitive cartridge
filters.
Thermally-Bonded Microfiber
Construction
- thermally fixed fibers will not move under pressure or
pressure surges and dislodge dirt into the filtrate.
- extremely small continuous filaments maximize controlled
porosity and complex tortuous paths.
- high structural strength and integrity provide excellent
end sealing.
- lowest media migration ensures no fiber contamination
of the filtrate.
- patented thermally-bonded blown microfiber process assures
consistent performance, filter to filter.
A Single Pure Material
- highest quality lot-controlled polypropylene.
- contains no wetting agents, solvents, anti-static agents,
binders or additives of any kind.
- inert material means broad chemical compatibility.
- no leachables or extractables.
- incinerates to trace ash with no hazardous volatiles,
for easy disposal.
- meets the requirements of the United States Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) for food and beverage contact.
Automated Continuous Manufacturing
- continuous construction in lengths of 1 ½ in. (3.8
cm) to 50 in. (127 cm) with no joints or welds.
- self-supporting media requires no separate central core.
- marked with micron rating right on the cartridge for easy
filter identification.
- thermal and vacuum finishing procedures virtually eliminate
manufacturing debris.
- integral pure polypropylene end adapters fit filter housings
without bypass.
- machine packaging and sealing of each cartridge provides
clean filters in the field.

This 2-Stage Under-Counter Water Filter Is Designed As a High Quality
particulate removal and turbidity reduction, and the control of cysts, including Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
The first cartridge filter will stop a very high amount of matter. On a chlorinated water supply the chlorine will kill high levels of trapped organisms. The second cartridge filter stops the rest and
removes the chlorine and other contaminants carbon block filters remove. The
combination proves to be exceptional. For the Ultimate Water Purification, we can plumb our WHOLLY WATER ® The Ultimate Drinking Water Appliance after the 1 micron and in front of the 0.5 micron or 0.2 micron. We can custom-make just about any solution for any problem you may have.
