"Drinking Water Encyclopedia" B&H Ultimate Double Protection Blue and White Diatom Ceramic Filter Element Water Filter

2020/12/12

I believe many people will be curious about what the blue ceramic filter element is and what is the difference with ordinary ceramic filter elements. Now let me answer you one by one and let you understand the charm of blue ceramic!

We have heard a lot about the filter element materials of water filters, including PP cotton, hollow fiber membranes, RO membranes, ceramics, etc. The most familiar and time-honored one is the use of diatom "ceramics" and active Carbon filter element! With regard to the diatom ceramic filter elements mentioned above, let us understand the material of the filter element and its practical use and performance step by step.

What is the blue ceramic filter
The ceramic filter element we usually use is white ceramic on the outside and activated carbon on the inner layer to filter out pollutants in the water through the micropores on the outside and inside. The blue ceramic filter element is a layer of filter element ceramic outer layer with excellent filtering performance on the surface of the white ceramic. Therefore, after installing the blue ceramic filter element water filter, the outer filter element ceramic is added to make it in addition to the general filtration efficiency. It can filter drugs and viruses.

Blue ceramic filter element VS ordinary ceramic filter element

The Royal Guard OCEAN MAX dual ceramic filter element, dual ceramics with different densities and protection, is another breakthrough in current ceramic filter technology. After continuous efforts, the B&H British R&D team finally developed the ocean max ceramic filter. The dual ceramics with different densities and protection. In addition to filtering viruses and microplastics, blue ceramic is also a display. As long as the white ceramic is cleaned to replace the filter element, the MAX carbon rod can effectively filter water drugs, heavy metals, water chemicals, chlorine, etc. It's the sapphire in your water.

Water speed:

The Royal Guard ceramic filter water filter combines technology to produce water at 2-3Lit/min. The ceramic filter has the highest filtration efficiency but the most stable water output rate on the market. It will not cause slow water output due to high filtration efficiency and high density. We do not just judge the filtration efficiency based on the density of the filter element alone. The Royal Guard ceramic water filter uses technology and ceramic filter elements to create a stable, high-efficiency, and fast water filter element.

Step 1: Understand clearly what diatom ceramics and activated carbon are, and what are their uses?

What is diatomaceous earth?
Diatom ceramics are made of natural diatom fossils. The shell of algae single-celled plants is filled with tiny pores. After death, it continuously precipitates to form diatom fossils. Therefore, it is called "diatom ceramics". The micropores are 0.2- 0.6 micron range

Filterable substances: 100% sediment, microorganisms and bacteria such as: cholera, typhoid fever, salmonella, E. coli, Shigella up to 99.99%, chlorine and lead and other impurities up to 99.99%

Disadvantages: The contaminants on the surface of the filter element must be cleaned regularly with a brush or scouring pad. The filter element can be removed and cleaned approximately every 3-4 weeks before it can be used continuously.

What is activated carbon?
Activated carbon usually uses charcoal and coconut shells as raw materials. After high-temperature steam activation treatment, charcoal and coconut shells will be converted into activated carbon.

Filterable substances: residual chlorine gas, peculiar smell, some turbidity and some up to 99.99%, organic matter such as pesticides, etc. up to 99.99%

Disadvantages: After a period of use, the activated carbon in the filter element may accumulate a lot of impurities. Consumers should regularly rinse and replace the filter element according to the instructions for use.

Step 2: Know what B&H's unique ``blue'' diatom ceramic filter element is?

The Ocean-Max Royal Guard ceramic filter element newly developed by B&H has its own unique antibacterial properties. The sapphire blue filter element has a ceramic outer layer with a double-layer ceramic design. The double-layer ceramic filter element provides the ultimate protection. The "blue" ceramic filter element can resist water pollutants, water-borne viruses and residual drugs in the water such as antibiotics, painkillers, steroid hormones, etc....so provide the best quality Fresh water!

Its patented ingredients are more effective in killing viruses such as: Rotavirus 99.99%, bacteria, cryptosporidium, E. coli, Salmonella, and cryptosporidium prevent the reproduction and breeding of 99.99%.

Step 3: Understand what is the biggest advantage of double blue and white ceramics?

1. Fully automated, 100% made in the UK, with higher filtration efficiency and reliable confidence

2. Patented double-layer ceramic design with multiple protections in different densities, effectively blocking 99.9% of viruses (such as rotavirus), bacteria, cryptosporidium, Escherichia coli, salmonella, and cryptosporidium to prevent reproduction and breeding

3. The use of precision MAX activated carbon rods, the inner layer of the carbon wall is added with a patented formula, which effectively removes various common drugs in the water, such as antibiotics, analgesics, steroid hormones, etc.... it can filter up to 20 kinds of drugs.

4. It can remove heavy metals in water at high speed, up to 99.8%, chlorine 99.9%, pesticides, nitrite, etc.

5. Retain the salt, electrolyte and minerals in the water

6. Adding the latest technology can block viruses and drugs, and the efficiency is even better

7. Add the blue and white double ceramic design to clearly show the time of core replacement

Step 4: What is the difference between the blue and white two-color diatom ceramic filter element and other filter elements?

Filter "virus"
Generally, the filter element of the water filter is advertised that it can filter 99.99% of lead, mercury, bacteria, rust, microplastics, chlorine, and other harmful substances. There are few brand filter elements on the market that can filter "virus". There are few and extremely rare, and this is the special feature of the blue and white double-layer ceramic filter element of the Royal Guard water filter and the difference between other brands of water filters. The filter element can filter viruses such as: rotavirus, round Rotavirus has a great impact because it is the most common cause of diarrhea in infants and young children. Rotavirus often causes gastroenteritis, leading to severe diarrhea, and sometimes even death due to dehydration. The most common way of transmission is contact with food, drinking water or eating utensils, etc.... Therefore, it is extremely important for families with infants or elders in their homes.

Filter "drugs"
The second point of the blue and white double-layer ceramic filter water filter is that it can filter drugs, including antibiotics, bisphenol A, analgesics, steroid hormones, trimethoprim (antibacterial drugs), and other brand water filters. Naproxen (pain relief/analgesia), Naproxen naproxen (pain relief/analgesia), Acetaminophen (analgesic and antipyretic), Ciprofloxacin (antibiotic), Sulfamethoxazole (antibiotic) , 17-Beta-Estradiol (steroid hormone), Caffeine caffeine, Fluoxetine (antidepressant), etc...
