In today's fast-paced world, convenience and efficiency are key factors in our daily lives. Ömer Kamber, a renowned designer, recognized the need for a more elegant and user-friendly water purification system. This led to the creation of the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat, a compact and innovative undercounter water purifier.
The Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat stands out from its competitors due to its unique design and features. Unlike traditional systems that take up valuable space under the sink, this water purifier boasts an interior storage tank, making it more compact and aesthetically pleasing. Additionally, accessing and changing filters is a breeze, thanks to removable covers and a special filter design.
With five filtration stages, the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat ensures that every drop of water is purified to perfection. The sediment filter traps large particles, while the granule activated carbon filter removes organic chemicals and chlorine. The block carbon filter further eliminates organic chemicals, chlorine, and carbon dust. The reverse osmosis membrane effectively removes various molecules and ions, including bacteria. Finally, the mineralized post carbon filter adds healthy minerals and removes any remaining tastes and odors.
One of the standout features of the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat is its emphasis on hygiene. Unlike other devices where filter materials are exposed, this water purifier's filters are enclosed within stable housings, eliminating the need for hand contact during production or maintenance. This ensures a more hygienic filtration process and peace of mind for users.
Furthermore, the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat is equipped with a built-in mechanism that automatically closes the water inlet in case of leakage, preventing potential floods. The device also features ventilation holes to prevent the formation of molds, ensuring the purity and safety of the filtered water.
When it comes to production, Ömer Kamber and his team utilize plastic injection technology to create the various parts of the water purifier. The filter housings and caps are securely fixed using spin and ultrasonic welding techniques. The device is powered by a pressure pump that requires 24 vdc electricity, ensuring energy efficiency. With dimensions of 270 mm (W) x 400 mm (D) x 385 mm (H) and a weight of 12.5 kg, the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat is designed to seamlessly fit into any kitchen space.
The Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat project began in July 2016 in Istanbul, Turkey, and was completed in September 2016. It was showcased at the prestigious Canton Fair in 2016, receiving positive feedback from industry professionals and consumers alike.
Ömer Kamber and his team conducted extensive research, collaborating with over 90 distributors worldwide to gather valuable insights into customer demands and preferences. This feedback allowed them to make improvements to their previous design, resulting in the highly acclaimed Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat.
The design process presented its fair share of challenges. The team had to ensure that all the filters and components fit within the compact dimensions of the device. Additionally, achieving watertightness in the filter housings, which were assembled using spin and ultrasonic welding machines, required meticulous adjustments and improvements to the plastic parts and machine settings.
The Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat has been recognized for its exceptional design and functionality. It was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Home Appliances Design category in 2017. This prestigious accolade is a testament to the water purifier's well-designed, practical, and innovative features that meet professional and industrial requirements.
With the Aura Cebilon Plus ICM Rexwat, Ömer Kamber has revolutionized the undercounter water purification experience. This compact and hygienic water purifier not only provides clean and delicious drinking water but also adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen.
