PERFORMANCE DATA SHEETS
Base Grille Water Filtration System
Model WF-NLC240V/NLC240V Capacity 240 Gallons (908 Liters)
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of the substances listed below. The
concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the
permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53.
Test Parameters: pH = 7.5 ± 0.5 unless otherwise noted. Flow = 0.5 gpm (1.9 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa).
Temp. = 63°F (17.2°C).
■
It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter
replacement requirements be carried out for the product to
perform as advertised.
■
Flush for 5 minutes prior to use.
■
Model WF-NLC240V: Change cartridge at least every
6 months. Use replacement cartridge NLC240V, part
#8212652. 2006 suggested retail price of $39.99 U.S.A./
$44.99 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice.
■
The product is for cold water use only.
■
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after
the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used
on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
■
Refer to the front cover or “Accessories” section for the
Manufacturer’s name, address and telephone number.
■
Refer to the “Warranty” section for the Manufacturer’s limited
warranty.
■
Note that while the testing was performed under standard
laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary.
