Active filter cartridge
For drinking water - Filters pollutants, taste and appearance
The Active filter cartridge made of sintered activated carbon adsorbs unpleasant odors and bland taste impairments such as chlorine and chlorine degradation products. It also reduces organic pollutants, various drug residues, light hydrocarbons, solvents, pesticides, flavors and fine particles (rust, lime flakes, sand). It fits into any Alb filter housing and is used for drinking water treatment in the home kitchen and when camping.
Area of application
What is filtered?
Chlorine and other taste impairments
The high-quality Alb Filter coconut block activated carbon adsorbs unpleasant odors (chlorine, CHCs, CFCs, etc.) and impairs the taste of drinking water.
Microplastics and other fine particles
The ultra-fine structure of the sintered activated carbon reliably retains microscopic plastic particles.
Drug residues and pesticides
Organic compounds such as pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, pharmaceutical residues, hormones and hormone-like substances are reduced.
Heavy metals such as lead and copper
The adsorbing effect of activated carbon binds and reduces heavy metals in drinking water.
Binds odors and pollutants
The strong surface forces (adhesion) of the activated carbon remove unwanted turbidity and odors such as chlorine as well as organic compounds and pollutants from the water. These include pharmaceutical residues, hormones, pesticides/pesticides, perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), etc.
Filters microplastics up to 10µm
The sintered activated carbon has a pore size of just 10µm (0.01 mm). This means that even very small particles are effectively retained by the fine structure. The Active cartridge thus offers protection against microplastics, sand, rust and other particles.

Installation / filter change
Quick guide to changing the filter cartridge. The old cartridge does not need to be removed during initial installation. For detailed instructions, please read the operating instructions for your water filter.
filter change ELEMENT/DUO
- Unscrew the lower cover from the filter body (Element or Duo). (A)
- Pull the old cartridge out of the sealing cap with a slight twisting motion. (B)
- Press the new cartridge into the holder of the sealing cap with a slight twisting motion. (C)
- Screw the lower cover back onto the filter body. (D)
- Let the water run through the filter for a few seconds to activate the Active cartridge. Production-related activated carbon dust can dissolve and cloud the water briefly.
- The new Active cartridge is now ready for use.
filter change FUSION
- Unscrew the upper filter housing from the Connect connector module. (A)
- Pull the old cartridge out of the connector module with a slight twisting motion. (B)
- Press the new cartridge into the holder of the connector module with slight twisting movements. (C)
- Screw the filter body back onto the connector module. (D)
- Important: Before activating the Active cartridge, please remove the Nano cartridge installed in the lower housing (to protect against fine activated carbon particles).
- Let the water run through the filter for a few seconds to activate the Active cartridge. Production-related activated carbon dust can dissolve and cloud the water briefly.
- Reinsert the nanocartridge into the lower housing.
- The new Active cartridge is now ready for use.
- Before starting installation, connect the water supply line to the corresponding fitting.
- Unscrew the cold water supply hose from your angle valve to the fitting.
- Screw a second Flex hose connection onto the angle valve (included in the complete set and complete set with quick-release couplings).
- Then attach the filter housing (ELEMENT or FUSION) between the flex hose connection from the angle valve and the supply line to the fitting.
- Use an adapter if necessary.
- Open the water supply pipe at the angle valve.
- Slowly open the tap and let the water run through the filter for 20 seconds to activate the cartridge for operation. (Fusion: When activating the Active cartridge, the Nano cartridge must not )
-> Please read the supplied installation instructions before installation.
