Performance Data Sheet

Kenmore

46-9970

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 Standard 42 and Standard 53. System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 and Standard 53 for the

reduction of substances listed below.

It is essential that the manufacturer’s recommended installation, maintenance and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the product to perform as advertised.

See Installation Manual for Warranty information.

Application Guidelines/Water Supply Parameters

Service Flow 0.5 gpm (21.9 lpm)

Water Supply Potable Water

Water Pressure 40-120 psi (2.8-8.2 bar)

Water Temperature 33°F-100°F (0.6°C-38°C)

Note: While the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual

performance may vary.

WARNING

To reduce the risk associated with ingestion of contaminants:

• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before and after the system. Systems certied for cyst reduction

may be used on disinfected water that may contain lterable cysts. EPA Establishment Number

10350-MN-005.

NOTICE

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:

• Read and follow use instructions before installation and use of this system.

• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.

• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (8.2 bar). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi,

you must install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain

how to check your water pressure.

• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you

must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how

to check for this condition.

• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this lter

system is 100º F (38º C).

• Protect lter from freezing. Drain lter when temperatures drop

below 33ºF (0.6ºC).

• The disposable lter cartridge must be replaced every 6 months at the

rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in ow rate occurs.

For conditions of use, health claims certified by the California Department of Public Health, and

replacements, see performance data sheet. California Department of Public Health Certification

#05-1698. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not

necessarily in all users’ water.
