Bwt Bestlead V for lead removal

The BWT Bestlead V is a specialized filter cartridge for removing lead (Pb) and other unwanted metal ions (Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺) from drinking water – ideal for older buildings with lead-contaminated pipes. At the same time, high-quality activated carbon fleece improves the taste by filtering out organic odors and tastes.

Features and Functionality

Innovative adsorber technology
A globally unique adsorber based on modified synthetic fibers binds lead and
other heavy metals are particularly effective
Combined activated carbon filtration
The use of activated carbon fleeces removes chlorine and organic substances and improves the sensory taste of the water.

Technical data

Operating temperature 4 – 30 °C
Operating pressure 2 – 8 bar
Capacity approx. 7,440 liters (at 50 µg/L Pb)
Maximum flow rate: 200 L/h
Changeover interval at the latest after 6 months or when capacity is reached

Measuring the filter volume is mandatory.
Since the capacity is limited, water consumption must be monitored with a BWT water meter – this is the only way to ensure that a filter change is carried out on time.

Advantages

Reliably removes lead and other heavy metals.

Noticeably improves the taste and smell of the water.

Low maintenance – replace at the latest after 6 months.

Compatible with standard filter heads (e.g. BWT besthead FLEX).

Protection is particularly relevant in older buildings with lead pipes.

Area of ​​application and recommendation

Ideal for drinking water in homes and public facilities with old water infrastructure.

Applications where water quality is crucial (kitchen, beverages, food preparation).

The Bestlead V is a powerful solution for safe, enjoyable drinking water – especially where lead is an issue in the pipe network.
