BIOFIL

Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides an in-depth analysis of BIOFIL filters, which are designed to enhance the bacteriological quality of water, focusing on anti-Legionella and all-germ point-of-use filters. These filters are essential in preventing infections from waterborne bacteria like Legionella spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, particularly in public and healthcare facilities.
Types of Filters
  • Tap & Wall Shower Filters: These are designed for easy installation on taps and wall-mounted showers, ensuring bacteriologically controlled water.
  • Shower Head Filters: These can be attached to standard shower hoses to provide safe water for showers.
  • Spout Filters: Suitable for mixers and taps, these filters maintain drop height and reduce contamination risks.
Controlling Waterborne Health Risks
Water systems in public buildings must be monitored for Legionella. The BIOFIL range offers solutions to secure water quality at the point-of-use, protecting vulnerable users. French and UK guidelines recommend point-of-use filters as a temporary or long-term measure in healthcare settings.
Technical Specifications
  • Filtration Technology: Utilizes hollow fibre microfiltration membranes with a porosity of 0.1μm, effectively removing bacteria without altering the water's chemical composition.
  • Filter Lifespan: Available in 2, 3, and 4-month versions, depending on the model and usage conditions.
  • Resistance: Filters can withstand thermal and chemical shocks, though replacement is recommended post-treatment.
Compliance and Traceability
BIOFIL filters are CE marked as class I medical devices and comply with European regulations. They are traceable through unique batch numbers and double labelling, ensuring accountability and safety.
Installation and Use
Filters are easy to install with push-fit connectors, requiring no tools. They are suitable for various settings, including healthcare facilities, to protect immunosuppressed patients and comply with public health regulations.
Conclusion
BIOFIL filters provide a reliable solution for managing waterborne health risks, ensuring safe water delivery in critical environments. Their design and compliance with international standards make them a valuable tool in infection prevention.
Product Specifications
  • Filters: Available in sterile and non-sterile versions with different flow types (shower spray, laminar flow). Lifespan varies from 2 to 4 months depending on the model. Filters are single-use, sterilizing grade 0.1μm nominal-rated, and can be ordered in multiples of 10.
  • Connectors: Push-fit connectors are available for mixer/tap and wall-mounted shower filters. Vandal-resistant versions are available to prevent unauthorized removal.
Installation and Usage
  • Shower Head Filters: Easy installation on standard shower hoses. Compatible with chemical and thermal shocks. CE marked for non-sterile versions.
  • Spout Filters: Quick installation without tools. Can replace BIOCLIP spouts. Compatible with chemical and thermal shocks. CE marked for non-sterile versions.
Technical Specifications
  • Filtration Area: Varies by model, with larger areas for longer lifespan filters.
  • Flow Rate: Ranges from 6 lpm to 13.2 lpm at 3 bar, depending on the filter type.
  • Pressure: Maximum upstream pressure at point-of-use is 5 bar.
Related Products
  • Mechanical Mixers: Available with BIOCLIP swivelling spouts and standard or pressure-balancing ceramic cartridges.
  • Electronic Mixers: TEMPOMATIC MIX with infrared presence detection and hygiene lever.
