Clean, great-tasting water from any source — town supply, tank or roadside fill.
The VANKOR Pro Flow 12 is a high-flow carbon filter that strips sediment, chlorine, chemicals and bad taste down to 0.5 micron. Its activated carbon also reduces PFAS — the "forever chemicals" turning up in tap water across Australia. Built for caravans, campers, 4WDs and off-grid rigs.
An integrated pressure gauge tells you exactly when the cartridge is due, and high flow means you're not standing around waiting to fill a kettle.
Why it stands out
- 0.5 micron PAC composite cartridge — PP fibre + coconut-shell activated carbon
- High flow to 11 L/min — strong pressure, no trickle
- Built-in pressure gauge — see at a glance when it's time to change the cartridge
- Reduces PFAS, chlorine, sediment, chemicals, taste and odour
- Push-fit or hose fittings — fits standard 12mm caravan plumbing
Pair it for a complete system
Carbon filtration removes particles and chemicals — but not bacteria or viruses. Add the VANKOR UV-C LED Steriliser after the Pro Flow 12 and you've got a two-stage system: filter, then sterilise. Clean and safe, every fill.
What's included
- 1 × VANKOR Pro Flow 12 filter housing with integrated pressure gauge

Installation & maintenance
Installs inline before your tank or at the point of use, using the wall-mount bracket and your chosen fittings — no plumber needed. Change the cartridge every 9–12 months (dropping flow is the sign): twist out the old one, twist in the new one, done.
Frequently asked questions
Does the Pro Flow 12 remove bacteria?
No — carbon filtration removes sediment, chlorine and chemicals, not bacteria or viruses. Add the VANKOR UV-C Steriliser for that and you've got a complete two-stage system.
Does it reduce PFAS?
Yes — activated carbon reduces PFAS, particularly long-chain types like PFOA and PFOS. Replace the cartridge on schedule; a saturated filter can stop trapping them.
Will it drop my water pressure?
No — it's high-flow to 11 L/min, and the built-in pressure gauge shows when the cartridge is due.
How often do I change the cartridge?
Every 9–12 months depending on water quality and use. Flow dropping off is the easiest sign it's time.
