Frequently Asked Questions

The PHIX Cartridge can neutralize clean acids that are free from contaminants and heavy metals.  Ideally, the PHIX Cartridge can neutralize acid in a pH range of pH 3.0 to 6.0; however, the PHIX Cartridge can handle wider pH ranges.  ​

Under normal use, we recommend changing the Z9A​-PHIX media once per year.  Replacement time varies according to the type of acid and amount of use by the customer. More frequent replacement may be needed under heavier use. Please consult with the Z9A-PHIX Cartridge owner's manual for more information or visit www.zurn.com 

The best way to determine media replacement is to measure the pH level downstream of the Z9A-PHIX Cartridge. If the pH range falls outside of pH 6.0 to 10.0 it is time to replace the media.  Zurn also supplies continuous monitoring pH meters that can be installed downstream of the Cartridge to provide a continuous readout to the user. Contact a Zurn Customer Care Representative or visit www.zurn.com for additional information.​

The Z9A-PHIX Cartridge is approved and certified in Canada under BMEC.  The PHIX Cartridge, being Polypropylene, is recognized under U.S. Plumbing Codes as a neutralizing device required for corrosive wastes. ​
