How tHe SyStem operateS
The Franke 02 multi stage water filter cartridge* supplied as
standard with your FilterFlow Zurich is capable of removing a
wide range of possible water contaminants.
* For the Republic of Ireland, Franke FilterFlow systems are
supplied with a Franke Franke 01 filter cartridge, to suit local
water conditions.
The Franke 02 cartridge comprises an outer shell of micro porous
ceramic enclosing an inner section of composite carbon block.
This ceramic and carbon combination will reduce sediment,
harmful bacteria, cysts, chlorine and lead.
The Franke 01 cartridge is an advanced carbon block with a red
pre-filter wrap and mesh. This cartridge will reduce sediment,
cysts, chlorine and lead and is suited to areas with low flow and
high levels of sediment.

maximum working pressure 6 bar/90psi.
Measure the pressure during the ‘low demand’ period, when the
pressure will be at its highest- e.g. in the mid-morning, mid-after-
noon or late evening. If the pressure exceeds 6 bar/90psi, it will be
necessary to install a suitable pressure reducing valve in the supply
line upstream of the filter stop valve.
A suitable pressure reducing valve is available online at
