The 

WaterPur

TM

 cartridge is not to be autoclaved or steam sterilized. Use the 

WaterPur

TM 

cartridge with 

microbiologically safe water. Activated carbon filters are not designed to kill or remove bacterial or 
viruses. Actual results obtained will vary with various combinations of organic contaminants, changes in 
pH or other conditions encountered in actual use. All information presented is based on data believed to 
be reliable. It is offered for evaluation and verification, but is not to be considered a warranty of any kind. 
The contaminants removed by the 

WaterPur

TM

 cartridge are not necessarily in your water. Some 

jurisdictions tax, regulate, or restrict devices making health related or aesthetic claims. 

WaterPur

makes no claims in those jurisdictions.

The 

WaterPur

TM

 system is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one 

year from date of purchase. Warranty does not cover damage due to abuse, neglect, improper 
installation, exposure to pressure or temperature above or below stated operating parameters, or 
improper winterizing. 
 
The Seller makes no other warranties of any kind, expressed or implied, concerning this product, 
including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, except that this product 
should be capable of performing as described in this manual. 
 
Seller’s obligation for this product’s performance below specifications shall be limited solely to the 
replacement of product proven defective, at the Seller’s sole discretion. Determination of suitability of 
product for uses contemplated by Buyer, shall be the sole responsibility of Buyer. Use of this product

The 

WaterPur

TM

 Model CCI-10CLW12 is a Household Class, Group 2, water filtration device designed 

for installation in recreational vehicles. It has a micron rating of 1 micron, a capacity of 10,000 gallons 
of chlorine removal at 2.5 gallons per minute. This capacity was determined under WQA Standard 
S-200 Test Conditions, and may vary with local water characteristics. 
 
The cartridge consists of activated carbon particles fused into a uniform block with enhanced absorptive 
capacity and efficiency. The cartridge flows in a radial outside-to-inside direction providing increased dirt 
capacity and low pressure drop (8 psid @ 1 gpm service flow, maximum differential pressure of 100 psid 
and a collapse pressure of 200 psid). 
 
Unlike granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, the extruded carbon will not channel or bypass, due to the 
extreme uniformity of its extruded activated carbon core. Service life is greatly extended by a layer of 15 
micron polypropylene spun-bonded prefiltration medium and a second layer of 5 micron polypropylene 
melt blown filter medium. 
 
Maximum cartridge operating pressure is 125 psid and maximum operating temperature is 125O F. 
Minimum operating temperature is 400 F. The housing and cartridge are constructed of 100% NSF 
listed materials.
