Suitable Water Sources for Use with Our AQUA Logic Emergency Water Filters

• Rainwater: Easy to collect and directly filter.
• Surface Water: For example, from ditches, lakes, rivers, and streams.
  Tip: For optimal results, we recommend pre-filtering surface water with a cloth, such as a tea towel, to remove large contaminants.
• Spring Water: Water from natural springs, if accessible.
• Snow and Ice: Melted snow or ice can be filtered.
  Note: Do not use snow or ice that is contaminated with salt or has lost its clear white color.
• Groundwater: Water from shallow wells or boreholes.
  Note: If the groundwater contains iron, it can be easily de-ironed by adding oxygen to the water. This can be done by pouring the water back and forth between two buckets. Allow the water to settle so that the iron particles accumulate at the bottom. The clear water on top can then be filtered with the AQUA Logic emergency water filter.
• Rain Puddles: Water collected in depressions after rainfall. Pre-filter large contaminants before filtering.
• Condensed Water: Water collected through condensation, such as with plastic sheets or collection systems.

Note: This filter is not suitable for purifying saltwater or heavily chemically contaminated water.

Filter characteristics

• Pathogenic organisms: Bacterial reduction of >99.9999% (including Cholera, Shigella, Typhus, Klebsiella terriagena, Enterococci, Legionella, and E. coli)
• Cysts/Protozoa: (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium)
• Micro- and Nano-plastics: Removes particles as small as 0.02 microns.

How to Use

Important Notes

• Tip: If water overflows from the outer bottle during the filtering process, ensure that the water does not exceed the fill line. Before starting, check that there is no air between the water and the filter element. Also, verify that the sealing ring on the filter element is properly fitted, and keep the drinking spout open throughout the entire filtering process.
• For optimal use, please carefully read the instructions and follow the tips and advice provided. Keep the instructions handy for future reference.
• This water filter is designed for relatively visually clear water / freshwater from preferably inland waters. Visually dirty water should first be pre-filtered by straining it through a cloth or similar material before using the water filter. Do not use the filter for seawater or chemically contaminated water.
• Do not use the product with water temperatures above 40°C, or place it in the freezer, microwave, or oven.
• Avoid cross-contamination: Do not fill the inner bottle with contaminated water. Always handle the filter with clean hands and keep the mouthpiece clean.
• Be careful not to drop the product, as impacts may damage the filtration mechanism. Do not use if the filter is damaged.
• Children should only use the product under adult supervision.

Emergency drinking water filter

Our water filters are being used worldwide in emergency and disaster situations where there is a lack of clean and safe drinking water. Disease caused by contaminated water is unfortunately the number 2 cause of death worldwide and even the number 1 cause of death among children up to 5 years old. Often more people die from the disaster after the disaster than from the disaster itself. With your purchase you support the work of the IBOTA Foundation and making this water filter available to those in need.

The AQUA Logic Gravity filter is a drinking water filter designed for situations where the regular water supply is unreliable due to water pollution or contamination. The filter is capable of producing high-quality, safe, and clean drinking water. It is particularly effective in environments heavily contaminated with microorganisms, providing an excellent solution for combating waterborne diseases such as Cholera. Additionally, the filter operates without the use of chemicals and is composed of maintenance-free and corrosion-resistant components.

Filter characteristics 2-in-1 C-Ultra Filter element:

• Pathogenic organisms: Bacterial reduction of >99.9999% (including Cholera, Shigella, Typhus, Klebsiella terrigena, Enterococci, Legionella, and E. coli)
• Cysts/Protozoa: (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium)
• Micro- and Nano-plastics: Removes particles as small as 0.03 microns (30 nanometers)

How to use

1. Marking the Filter First Use Date
Note the date the unit is put into service on the provided date sticker and affix it to the filter housing where it is clearly visible.

2. Installing the Filter
Unscrew the aerator (flow restrictor) from your tap. Then, firmly screw the water filter's tap adapter onto your tap. If necessary, use the provided adapter ring. If you have a tap with an internal thread, you can use the supplied adapter ring in combination with the rubber seal. For taps without threading, the separately available rubber tap adapter can be used.

3. Ready for Use
Once the tap is open, pull out the lever on the tap adapter to allow water to flow through the filter. When you turn off the tap, the lever will automatically spring back (Note: Due to built-up water pressure, it is normal for the water to continue flowing for a short while). It is recommended to not use the first batch of filtered water (ca. 5 liter) for consumption. After that, the filter is ready to provide clean and safe drinking water.

4. Deflate the Filter
Hold the filter upside down while it fills with water (with the lever pulled out). This allows any trapped air to escape from the filter.

Tip: Hold a cloth at the filter outlet to catch any water that may escape.

Maintenance

When the flow rate decreases, the filter element can be easily cleaned:

Disassemble the Filter
Place a bowl or towel under the filter. Hold the filter upside down, above the sink or a bowl, while turning the filter housing counterclockwise to open (you can use the supplied tensioner for this). Pull the filter element out of the housing using a twisting motion.

Cleaning the Filter Element
If the water flow slows down, the filter can be cleaned easily:

1. Using the integrated Cleaning Pad, the filter surface can be firmly sanded clean (see image beside).
2. Rinse the actived carbon surface. Make sure only clean water touches the water outlet. As a precaution, do not use the first liter of filtered water for consumption.

Manual

Replacement of the O3 Micro Cell:

To ensure optimal performance of the system, we recommend replacing the O3 Micro Cell every season. However, please note that this may vary depending on usage. If the system is used frequently and continuously, replacement may be necessary sooner than when the system is used intermittently for short durations.

If the O3 Micro Cell is less than six months old, we advise checking the system for potential issues before replacing the O3 Micro Cell. Usually, there might be another cause since the O3 Micro Cell typically lasts for a minimum of six months or longer.

1. Turn off the AQUA Logic Electrolysis unit with the O3 Micro Cell by either switching off the system or disconnecting the plug with the DC connector.
2. Place the provided plastic ring around the AQUA Logic Electrolysis unit. Press the plastic ring on the clips until both clips are released. Now, carefully remove the O3 Micro Cell from the electrolysis unit.
3. Insert the replacement O3 Micro Cell with both clips into the corresponding holes of the electrolysis unit. Press the clips firmly to ensure they are securely in place. Then, press both legs of the clips against a firm surface until you hear a click.
4. Reconnect the system after completing this procedure.

Tip: Double-check for ozone production by placing the electrolysis unit with the O3 Micro Cell in a glass of water to see if ozone bubbles are produced.

Plug into filter housing cover. This renewed Generation 2 filter element fits in all Aqualogic 10 INCH inline filter housings. This element is also suitable for earlier variants of the aqualogic inline and tap housings.

This single filter is capable of producing safe and clean drinking water of high quality. The filter works without the addition of chemicals and is made up of maintenance-free and corrosion-free parts.

Replacing the Inline Filter Element

1. First, turn off the water supply and open the tap to relieve pressure from the system.
2. You might want to place a basin under the filter. Unscrew the filter housing (counter-clockwise) and pull the filter element downwards to remove it.
3. You can scrub the active carbon cylinder's filter surface clean using the integrated cleaning pad. Afterward, rinse the filter element with water.
4. Insert the (new) filter element and tighten the housing again, but don't overtighten it – snug is enough. Make sure the rubber sealing ring is properly seated and clean when closing the housing.
5. After maintenance, the filter needs to be vented again by holding down the vent button until all the air has escaped. We also recommend that you do not use the first few liters for consumption after any maintenance.
6. Finally, check for any leaks to ensure the water filter housing is properly tightened.
    

Shelf life and Life Span

When unused, the filter has an almost unlimited shelf life, provided it is stored in a cool, dry, and dark place.

The recommended service life is 6 months. The actual lifespan depends on the water quality and the level of contamination in the water being treated. Replace the filter at least once a year.

If the filter is not going to be used for an extended period, it can be removed and left to dry completely. Once stored in a dry and hygienic environment, the filter can be used again later.
