Water Filtration System Model UKF8001AXX-200/UKF8001 Capacity 200 Gallons (757 Liters) System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42, 53, 401 and CSA B483.1 for the reduction of contaminants specified on the Performance Data Sheet. This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53, 401 and CSA B483.1 for the reduction of the substances listed below. The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentraion less than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53, 401 and CSA B483.1.

Flow = 0.78 gpm (2.95 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). Temp. = 68°F to 71.6°F (20°C to 22°C). Rated service capacity = 200 gallons (757 liters). The compounds certified under NSF 401 have been deemed as "emerging compounds/incidental contaminants." Emerging compounds/incidental contaminants are those compounds that have been detected in drinking water supplies at trace levels. While occurring at only trace levels, these compounds can affect the public acceptance/perception of drinking water quality. 21
