 Purigen™
is a premium synthetic adsorbent that is unlike any
other filtration product. It is not a mixture of ion
exchangers or adsorbents, but a unique macro-porous
synthetic polymer that removes soluble and insoluble
impurities from water at a rate and capacity that exceeds
all others by over 500%. Purigen™ controls ammonia,
nitrites and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic
waste that would otherwise release these harmful compounds.
Purigen’s™ impact on trace elements is minimal.
It significantly raises redox. It polishes water to
unparalleled clarity. Purigen™ darkens progressively
as it exhausts, and is easily renewed by treating with
bleach. Purigen™ is designed for both marine and
freshwater use. This product is sold by volume. Cited
weight is minimal weight.
Sizes:
100 mL (bagged), 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2L, 4 L, 20 L |
| |
| DIRECTIONS:
Rinse before use. Use in a fine mesh filter bag.
Each 1 L treats up to 4,000 L (1,000 gallons*)
for up to six months. Exhaustion is indicated
by a pronounced discoloration of the beads to
dark brown or black. |

| Regeneration:
Soak in a 1:1 bleach:water solution for 24 hours
in a non-metalic container in a well ventilated
area and away from children. Rinse well, then
soak for 8 hours with a solution containing 2
tablespoons of ChlorGuard™, Prime™,
or equivalent dechlorinator per cup of water.
Rinse well. For freshwater use, soak for 4 hours
with a solution containing 1 tablespoon of buffer
per cup of water (Discus Buffer™, Neutral
Regulator™, or Acid Buffer™). Original
color and full activity should now be restored
and Purigen™ is ready for reuse. Caution:
some slime coat products may permanently foul
Purigen™ and render regeneration difficult.
Do not reuse if odor of chlorine is detectable.
In case of doubt, soak beads in small quantity
of water and test for residual chlorine with a
chlorine test kit. |
