economical light-weight media for the reduction of sediment and turbidity - filtration to 20-40 microns
Filter-Ag's® highly fractured edges and irregular surfaces provide a high surface area and complex flow path for efficient removal of suspended matter throughout the filter bed, typically reducing suspended solids down to the 20-40 micron range. Filter-Ag's® larger particle size creates less pressure loss and allows deeper particle penetration into the bed for greater sediment loading and extended filter run cycles. .
Filter-Ag's® relatively light weight allows for lower backwash flow rates and better bed expansion to release trapped sediment during backwash.
Filter-Ag® can be used in both pressure or gravity flow systems. It can also be used as a layer in multi-media filter designs allowing a more flexible approach to difficult filtration problems.
- low pressure loss
- relatively low backwash flow rates
- light weight
- ANSI/NSF 61 validated
