Sand Media Filters (24" High)

Industrial Sand Media Filters provide a reliable and cost-effective solution for achieving enhanced water quality by removing organic and inorganic suspended solids down to 20 microns. As versatile Multi-Media Filters, they can be implemented as a primary filtration stage or as essential pretreatment to protect downstream technologies. Featuring a 24-inch vertical shell, these systems utilize a carefully arranged, reverse-stacked media bed to facilitate efficient progressive filtration throughout the filter depth. This method ensures effective removal of a broad spectrum of particulate matter. The integrated simple backwash system ensures ease of maintenance and consistent output of high-quality filtered water, making these filters ideal for various industrial applications seeking robust and straightforward solids removal.
