Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| AC-Series vs CC-Series distinction | AC-Series (activated coconut shell carbon) removes chlorine, heavy metals, organics; CC-Series (catalytic carbon) specifically targets chlorine plus chloramines, which standard activated carbon handles poorly | AXEON Water Technologies — Filtration, Ion Exchange, Disinfection & Injection Systems |
| ZE-Series zeolite media | Sediment/debris removal down to 5 microns, high flow rates, pre-filtration duty | AXEON Water Technologies — Filtration, Ion Exchange, Disinfection & Injection Systems |
| Control valve distinction | Clack 1191 control valve used specifically on the Upflow Carbon line vs. an unnamed 'Advanced' control valve on AC/CC/ZE | AXEON Water Technologies — Filtration, Ion Exchange, Disinfection & Injection Systems |
| Certifications | NSF/ANSI 61 certified components, ISO 9001:2015 manufacturing | AXEON Water Technologies — Filtration, Ion Exchange, Disinfection & Injection Systems |
Standard activated carbon (AC-Series) handles chloramines poorly, so a municipality that has switched from free-chlorine to chloramine disinfection needs the catalytic carbon CC-Series instead — using AC-Series against chloraminated feedwater is a real, common misspecification.
Chlorine and chloramines look like the same problem — disinfectant in the water — but they need different carbon chemistry. Standard activated carbon handles free chlorine well and chloramines poorly, so specifying by micron rating alone instead of by carbon type is how a plant that switched to chloramine disinfection ends up with a media filter that no longer does its job.
