Certified Elements
NSF 61 Certified Drinking Water RO and NF Elements
The National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) provides
conformity assessment services in the area of public
health for the food preparation and plumbing water
industries. NSF is an organization accredited by the
American National Standard Institute (ANSI) to certify
products against several NSF/ANSI Standards, including NSF Standard 61. NSF/ANSI Standard 61 is a testing protocol that assures customers and regulators
that products do not contribute to
unsafe levels of contaminants in drinking water.
AG and AK certified elements are selected when incomparable confidence is requested from drinking
water system components.
AG and AK certified elements feature a fiberglass outer wrap and standard feed spacers.

AG Series - RO High Rejection Elements
1
Average salt rejection after 24 hours operation. Individual flow rate may vary
+25%/-15%.
2
Testing conditions: 2,000ppm NaCl solution at 225psi (1,551kPa) operating pres-
sure, 77 °F, pH 7.5 and 15% recovery.
AK Series - RO Low Energy Elements
1
Average salt rejection after 24 hours operation. Individual flow rate may vary
+25%/-15%.
2
Testing conditions: 500ppm NaCl solution at 115 psi (790kPa) operating pressure,
77 °F, pH 7.5 and 15% recovery.
1
These elements are bagged dried before shipping.
2
Internal diameter unless specified OD (outside diameter).
3
The element diameter (dimension C) is designed for optimum performance in GE
Water & Process Technologies pressure vessels. Other pressure vessel dimension
and tolerance may result in excessive bypass and loss of capacity.
