Aries - Perchlorate Removal Replacement Cartridges
From AF Series Replacement Cartridges
Aries FilterWorks perclorate removal cartridges use ResinTech® SIR-110-HP, a strong base anion resin. It exhibits an unusually high preference for perchlorate and a low affinity for multivalent ions. This media is supplied in chloride form as a moist, durable, uniform spherical bead. ResinTech® SIR-110-HP essentially eliminates all monovalent “dumping” making it useful in nitrate removal applications. The perchlorate operating capacity is virtually unaffected by the presence of sulfates.
About Perchlorates
Perchlorate salts, such as ammonium perchlorate and potassium perchlorate, are man-made compounds used as combustion accelerants, primarily in solid-fueled rockets and missiles. It can also be found in some munitions, fireworks, and road flares and is even thought to exist naturally in some nitrate-based fertilizer products.
Manufacturing waste and improper disposal of perchlorate containing compounds are increasingly being found in groundwater and local drinking water wells. Perchlorate is one of a newly recognized group of toxins called endocrine disrupters, which can alter hormonal levels, by interfering with iodide uptake in the thyroid gland . The US Environmental Protection Agency, federal agencies and local governments are currently assessing the potential human health risks posed by perchlorate exposure.
Filter cartridge Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 and NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for material requirement(s) only.
Filter Cartridge Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 372 for low lead compliance.
Key Features
- Resintech® Sir-110-Hp gives highest perchlorate selectivity
- Media meets nsf/ansi 61 certification
- Superior physical stability and lower pressure drop

Applications
Commercial Use
Perchlorates are the salts derived from perchloric acid (HClO4). They occur both naturally and as a by-product of manufacturing. Improper disposal of perchlorate- containing compounds are increasingly being found in groundwater and local drinking water. Where indicated a specific filter, that targets perchlorate removal should be considered.
Residential Use
Low levels of perchlorate have been detected in both drinking water and groundwater in 35 states in the US according to the Environmental Protection Agency. If elevated levels are detected, a recognized laboratory should do testing for perchlorates, and use of a perchlorate filter should be considered. Currently, there are no enforceable perchlorate safety standards. The EPA’s protective health level for perchlorate in drinking water is a dose estimate of less than 1 ppb.
