ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

ROSave.Z cartridge filters are made from thermally bonded fibers of polypropylene. GE certifies that it uses no resin binders, lubricants, antistatic or release agents, in the manufacture of these filter cartridges. The resin used for manufacturing the filter media meet the food contact requirements of the U.S. FDA 21CFR 177.1520. ROSave.Z cartridge filters meet the safety requirements of Article 3 of the EU Framework Regulation No. 1935/2004/EC and may be used as intended in all of the EU Member states in full compliance with the EU Plastics Regulation No. 10/2011. ROSave.Z cartridge filters meet the criteria for USP class VI-121’C Plastics.

GE filter cartridges are designed and manufactured for resistance to a wide range of chemical solutions. Conditions will vary with each application and users should carefully verify chemical compatibility. Please contact your GE representative for more information.

The ROSave.Z element is tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for material requirements only.
