Product Description
The Tulip Table Top is a two bucket water filter and water storage facility in one. The top bucket is filled with raw water, which is filtered through the Tulip candle filter into the lower bucket. The water in the lower bucket is safe for immediate consumption. The water is also safe for storage in the lower bucket for longer periods. The Tulip Table Top lasts up to 7000 liters. After which the candle can be easily replaced.
How it works
Dirty water is put into the top container in which the candle is placed. Water will drip through the candle and the fast flow hose connected to the candle into the bottom bucket. The Tulip Table Top filter will purify the water of bacteria, parasites and turbidity. The water will be stored in the bottom container making sure that the water will not re-contaminate. The water can be used for drinking via the tap in the lower bucket.
For whom this can be applicable
Households: The Tulip Table Top filter is easily applicable for all members of a household. The water storage in the bottom container ensures that water is not re-contaminated.
School classes: Tulip Table Top is ideal to realize safe drinking water at schools as part of a WASH strategy. Being able to drink safe water during the day will increase the concentration and attendance of children. Also, children can be strong advocates of safe water and hygiene at home when they learn this at school.
Maintenance of filter
To protect the filter element against premature clogging when using dirty water, the filter element is covered with a washable pre-filter. After some time, the flow rate will reduce because of clogging of the filter element. When this occurs a small layer of the ceramic material of the filter element has to be removed by scrubbing the filter. This can be done easily by using a scrub pad, which is included with the filter.
