FDA

FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) Standard Testing

Regulation of Water-Contact Materials

How to Comply:

All water-contacting components in water purifiers, including:
  • Filter housings (plastic parts)
  • Water pipes and fittings
  • Water storage tanks (if plastic)
  • Faucets (internal plastic seals)
The plastics, rubber, sealants, adhesives, and other materials used in these components must comply with the relevant FDA standards.

What Does "Complying with FDA Standards" Mean?

This means that the materials have been tested and proven to ensure that under normal usage conditions, the chemicals (extractables) migrating into the water from the materials are minimal and within safe limits, posing no health risk to humans. This fundamentally prevents secondary contamination.

Residual Chlorine
The pore size of the RO membrane is extremely small (0.0001 microns), and the volume of residual chlorine molecules, as well as the disinfection by-products (such as THMs) generated by the reaction of residual chlorine with organic substances, is much larger than water molecules. Therefore, they ...

TDS & PPM
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) refers to the total amount of all inorganic salts and organic substances dissolved in water. These substances come from the rocks, soil, pipes, and pollutants introduced by human activities that the water flows through. PPM (Parts Per Million) is a unit of concentrati...

304 Stainless Steel Shell
304 stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel (hence the name "18/8 stainless steel"). Chromium forms a very thin and dense passivation layer on the surface, giving it excellent resistance to rust and corrosion in air or water. It is also resistant to common cleaning agents, ensuring lo...
