Multi-Media Filters For Sediment Removal

These filters contain several types of media and gravel under-bedding. Multi-media filtration is a proven design concept; the coarse media layers in the top of the tank trap large particles, and successively smaller particles are trapped in the finer layers of media deeper in the bed. The result is a highly efficient filtering since removal takes place throughout the entire bed. Multi-Media depth filters typically remove particles 5-15 microns in size or larger. All media included in our filters are carefully selected according to particle size, so the media retains its stratification during backwash and rinse. Automatic backwashing system removes the trapped contaminants within the filter bed and washes them down the drain.
