CERTIFIED PERFORMANCE
The Culligan Good Water Machine Model AC-30, AC-30M, AC-30L,
AC-30 Plus, AC-30M Plus and AC-30L Plus Drinking Water Systems
have been tested and certified to ANSI/NSF International Standard 58
for effective reduction of TDS, Arsenic, Barium, Cadmium, Hexavalent
and Trivalent Chromium, Cysts, Fluoride, Lead, Radium 226/228, and
Selenium as verified and substantiated by test data. The Model AC-30
Nitrate, AC-30M Nitrate and AC-30L Nitrate have been tested and
certified to ANSI/NSFInternational Standard 58 for effective reduction
of the above substances and Nitrate/Nitrite. Nitrate models are accept-
able for treatment of influent concentrations of no more than 27 mg/L
Nitrate and 3 mg/L Nitrite in combination measured as N and are
certified for Nitrate/Nitrite reduction only for water supplies with a
pressure of 40 psig (280 kPa) or greater.
This system shall only be used for arsenic reduction on chlorinated water supplies
containing detectable residual free chlorine at the system inlet. Water systems using
an in-line chlorinator should provide a one minute chlorine contact time before the
RO system.
Average removal percentages are as follows:
Arsenic
98.0% Fluoride 95.2%
Barium 90.0% Lead 98.1%
Cadmium 96.4% Nitrate 80.7%
Chromium III 85.7% Nitrite 75.8%
Chromium VI 86.6% Radium 226/228* 80.0%
Copper 99.2% Selenium 96.8%
Cysts (including 99.99% TDS/Sodium Chloride 85.5% (2 gallon tank)
Cryptosporidium, Giardia Lamblia 90.9% (3 gallon tank)
and Entamoeba Histolytica) 91.4% (9 gallon tank)
*Minimum removal based on approved testing methods with Barium as surrogate.
The substances removed by this system are not necessarily in your untreated water. See
Performance Data Sheet for exact percentages of contaminant removal.
