Extra Deep Bed Industrial Media Filters

Waterco's Micron Fiberglass Filters are made from continuous strands of high-quality fiberglass filament, wound under controlled tension to create a seamless, impervious vessel. This process produces a filter that is free from welds and seams. No special tank linings are required to fight corrosion. Waterco's revolutionary winding technology further strengthens the vessel, which can be built to withstand working pressure up to 150psi.

Fiberglass vessels are rapidly replacing traditional steel and carbon steel tanks in numerous applications due to superior mechanical and chemical resistance, unlike steel filters. Fiberglass won't rust or corrode and can also withstand damage from water treatment chemicals. Vessels are ideal for seawater applications, such as pre-filtration in desalination systems.

Features

• Inflow diffuser for even distribution of water flow across the filter bed
• Elliptical positive pressure sealing manways
• UV and corrosion-proof resistant fiberglass wound tank
• Hydraulically balanced laterals maximize water flow for better filtration and backwash
• Manual 3" x 1" media/water drain
• Large filter base for stable floor mounting
• 1/3 the weight of steel
• Triple seal, no metal contact watertight seal
• Vessels include slotted SCH 80 PVC laterals, compatible with air scour/air pulse backwash
