NITRATE X System
Targeted Nitrate Reduction for Rural Water
A compact underbench system designed to reduce nitrates in rural and agricultural water supplies, one of the most common and concerning issues in rural water supplies.
Provides targeted treatment for homes where nitrates are a concern, offering a simple, non-powered solution.
Best suited as part of a broader water system.
Why This System
- Specifically targets nitrate contamination
- Includes carbon + KDF for:
- Chemical reduction
- Heavy metal support
- Designed for rural and agricultural environments
- Provides a practical solution where nitrates are known or suspected
What does this system remove?
- Nitrates (via dedicated nitrate-selective filtration)
- Residual chlorine and some chemical compounds
- Fine sediment and particles
- Improves taste and clarity
What this system does not cover
- Does not remove bacteria or microorganisms
- Does not provide full multi-stage filtration
- Does not comprehensively remove dissolved contaminants beyond nitrates
- Does not restore minerals
Where this system fits
- Targeted solution for nitrate concerns (REMOVE stage)
- Designed as an add-on or standalone for specific cases
- Best used with relatively clean or pre-filtered water
When should I consider a different system?
- If you want full contaminant removal → PureRevive
- If you need sediment + bacteria removal → Alka Rural Total (+ nitrate filter)
- If your water quality is unknown → PureRevive
- If you want a complete everyday system → Alka Rural Total

______
NIT10 Filter
Nitrate reduction: Achieves an impressive 90-95% reduction in nitrate levels, surpassing the performance of some nitrate removal resins.
Nitrate selective Anion Resin
Sulphate degradation: Unlike other systems, the NIT10 filter is not affected by sulphate levels, maintaining its nitrate removal efficiency.
Removal capacity: Capable of effectively eliminating up to 11,700mg of nitrate, providing reliable purification for your water.
Ample supply: Enjoy approximately 1200 liters of filtered water with a nitrate concentration of 10ppm/cubicm (equivalent to 10mg/l), or approximately 2400 liters with a concentration of 5mg/l.
It is selective for nitrate and can be used on clean bore water, pre-filtered surface water as well as mains water, such as city or town water which has high nitrate levels
FDA-grade materials: The NIT10 filter is constructed using materials that meet FDA standards, ensuring the highest quality and safety for your peace of mind.

Active Pure 1 Yr - KDF & Carbon Slimline 10" filter (2nd Stage, downstream of the NIT10)
Active Pure XTRA-SL prefilter is a high-performance filter for excellent quality drinking water (FDA approved).
Effectively removes chlorine, aluminium, and heavy metal contamination.
Contains two separate purification media for enhanced filtration.
First stage utilizes versatile KDF oxidation/reduction media to remove heavy metals, trace metals, and chlorine, extending the life of the second stage.
Second stage employs coconut shell activated carbon for the removal of chlorine, organics, chemicals, tastes, and odors.
Media: KDF, Granular activated carbon.
Filter mesh size: 5 µ micron.
Capacity: 17,000 Liters or 20-24 months, lasting 2 times longer than ordinary filters (depending on source water).
Hygienic life of 2 years, subject to source water.
pH range: 5-9.
Pressure rating: 70 PSI.
Flow rate: up to 2 Liters per minute.
