Water Treatment - Sediment
Sediment Filters
Sediment filters, whether as cartridges or media bed format, are used to filter and remove suspended particulates like clay, silt, or oxidized iron from a chlorinated system. By removing these particulates, the filter can rid water of the sediment that gives water a cloudy appearance.
A cartridge filter will contain cellulose, rayon, or some other material spum into a mesh with small pores. Suspended sediment is then removed from water pressure forcing water through the tightly wrapped fibers.
The mixed media used for filtering is composed of a variety of mesh sizes to filter particles of various sizes. Along with a thorough backwash, which prevents the bed from channeling or locking up, you have a system set up for a long and efficient service life.
Benefits:
- Low maintenance cost.
- Helps prevent reduced water flow from build-up of particulates in water.
Maintenance:
Cartridges Filters
- Change filter cartridge every 6 months.
