2 General Information
2.1 Function and Application
PURITY C is a fi lter system specially designed by BRITA for use in catering to ensure constantly high
water quality for individual customer applications as well as reliable and simple operation.
The unique IntelliBypass ensures a constant by-pass proportion of water for the entire usage period,
irrespective of the volumetric fl ow of the terminal equipment used. The result is consistently high
water quality specially tailored to the requirements of the application and the local water conditions.
By reliably locking the fi lter cartridge in the fi lter head and controlling the water fl ow, the innovative
locking handle ensures simple and reliable operation.
The food quality provided by the BRITA PURITY C fi lter system has been inspected and confi rmed
by independent institutes. Product-specifi c certifi cations are located on the label and also at
www.brita.net.
2.1.1 Purity C Quell ST
PURITY C Quell ST fi lter cartridges reduce the carbonate hardness in drinking water, thus preventing
scale deposits in the downstream terminal equipment. Depending on the by-pass setting, the fl ow
method is used for the selective removal of calcium and magnesium ions as well as heavy metals
ions, such as lead and copper. In addition to cloudiness and organic pollutants, the fi lter material also
reduces the level of substances impairing smell and taste, such as chlorine residues in the fi ltrate
and in the by-pass water.
Typical areas of application for PURITY C Quell ST are coffee and espresso machines, hot and cold
drink vending machines as well as combi ovens and conventional ovens.
2.1.2 Purity C AC
The PURITY C AC fi lter cartridge reduces cloudiness, organic pollutants as well as the level of
substances impairing smell and taste, such as chlorine residues. The fi lter material retains particles
down to a size of 0.5 µm.
Typical areas of application for PURITY C AC are vending machines and on-tap watercoolers.
