UF membrane
- In addition to the filter cartridge
- holds back microplastics, rust and dust
- suitable for use with the NATURA PLUS® 4L water filter - KIARA -
Duration of use:
The duration of use is very variable and ranges from many months to a few weeks. What does that mean?
During a long-term test of continuous use, no loss of performance was detected in our office over several months. The lime content of the water in the test was around 16dH, so relatively calcareous.
The limescale filter pad was replaced every 4 weeks and the Natura Plus filter cartridge was replaced every 2 months.
However, if you have a lot of sediment, rust, dust or aggressive lime, the pores of the UF membrane can become blocked. Since the UF membrane can only be cleaned to a limited extent, the service life cannot be reliably estimated, so it depends on whether the fine pores become blocked.
Since Lotus Vita water filter systems are not hermetically sealed, outdoor use is not officially recommended, as Lotus Vita cannot guarantee bacterial safety for this filter for technical reasons.
LOTUS VITA UF membrane
UF membrane filters the finest particles and also microplastics
and is connected to the Natura Plus filter cartridge as an additional filter stage.
The high-end UF membrane newly developed by Lotus Vita in 2020 has a very small pore size of only 0.2 µm and significantly improves the filter result.
Due to the longer and therefore much more intensive contact with the activated carbon, the ion exchanger and the mineral ceramics, not only are the filter results better, but the taste of the filter water is also even finer.
Attention: The UF membrane is ideal for use in the Natura Plus 4 liter stand-alone unit. We do not recommend the UF membrane for the filter jugs.
High tech meets lifestyle – The Natura Plus UF membrane is a high-performance filter.
The Natura Plus UF membrane is connected to the bottom of the Natura Plus filter cartridge.
The crystal stone compartment for the filter carafes cannot be used together with the UF membrane because the UF membrane uses the same connection.
The filter result is significantly better
The high-end UF membrane newly developed by Lotus Vita in 2020 has a very small pore size of only 0.2 µm and significantly improves the filter result and the taste.
How is performance improvement achieved?
The natural force of gravity directs the water through the ultra-fine pores.
The laser-perforated hollow chamber fibers retain even the finest unwanted particles; only water and dissolved minerals can pass through.
With a pore size of only 0.2 µm, the filter performance corresponds to that of the ceramic filter of the Fontana series; this filter retains microplastics, rust, dust and bacteria.
higher filter performance – noble taste
The filter time is reduced by an average of three times. During this time, the filter materials have more time to clean the water and enrich it with minerals (in the last layer of the filter cartridge).
The activated carbon cleans the water more intensively and also significantly enhances the drinking experience.
The filter performance is so high that with the housing of the Lotus Natura Plus 4 liter glass bamboo with UF membrane the taste is hardly distinguishable from the large Lotus Fontana 8 liter with advanced filter cartridge!
Due to the very low water pressure, it is possible that a few centimeters of water may remain in the filling tank. With the Natura Plus 4 liters, you can fill the filling tank to the maximum; the water pressure is then sufficient to continue filtering your drinking water. The use of the UF membrane in a filter carafe is therefore only possible with the larger models. Please contact our customer service if you have any questions about the compatibility of your housing.
The flow
becomes much slower:
Natura Plus filter cartridge approx. 5 min/ litre
Natura Plus filter cartridge + UF membrane approx. 15-30 min/ litre
