Pressure Sand Filters System
media filters are used in places where the raw water contains suspended particles, turbidity and iron. Dual media filters provide very efficient particle removal under the conditions of high filtration rate. These filters use layers of anthracite and garnet particles as the filter medium, with filtration rate of 98% down to 2 microns.
The sand filter also provides physical matrix for bacterial decomposition of nitrogenous material like ammonia and nitrates, into nitrogen gas. For different application there are different types of sand filters. Usually there are three types of sand filters used:Rapid (gravity) Sand FiltersUpflow Sand FiltersSlow Sand Filters

Most frequently used filtration fillings:
Fine gravel: 1-20mm
Silica sand of various roughness: 0.4-2.5mm
Active charcoal: is used for absorption of chlorine and other mineral substances
Anthracite: is used in two-layer or multi-layer filtration of drinking water in connection with sand - the addition of anthracite guarantees a longer filter lifetime, it facilitates a larger filtration through-flow and reduces sand contamination
Catalytic mediums [YAMLOX®]: are used to remove iron and manganese from drinking water
Semi-burnt Dolomite limestone: is used to reduce water acidity
The filtration bed can be formed by one layer or more layers of various filtration materials. Filtration sand lifetime during a proper washing of filters oscillates around 8 years on a standard basis.
Filters are controlled manually [with ball valves / shut-off valves] or automatically. In the case of an automatic filter control process, membrane or hydraulic or pneumatic valves are used.
The entire automatic process of filtration and back washing of filters is controlled by a central control unit. The control unit makes it possible to set filter washing on the basis of time, pressure difference or filtered water quantity.
Filters are washed, on a standard basis with raw water or with treated water from reservoirs.
Filters are fitted with a filtration inter-bottom with jets. The jets are made of the ABS material and make it possible to wash with water or both water and air. In the case of the filling height not exceeding 1500 mm, the water flushing process is fully sufficient.
Pressure filters are made of carbon steel with a protective anticorrosion coating with epoxy resin in the RAL 5010 [gentian blue] or 5012 [light blue] colour shade. The coating meets the conditions of hygienic harmlessness for contacts with drinking water.

FAQ:
01. how small a solid needs to be removed,
02. how dirty the water is,
03. how the water will be used once it is filtered,
04. and the source of backwash water needed to clean the filters.
