Multi-Media Filters for Sediment Removal

With AquaMatic® Valve Nests

About AquaMatic Valve Nest Media Filters

AquaMatic Valve Nests replace the standard single-valve controller head for larger systems. In valve nest filters a set of five valves controls service, backwash and rinse flows at different points in the system. This eliminates the need for a center riser tube and distributor resulting in better flow distribution for higher efficiency and lower pressure drops. Multiple filter tanks can be used in parallel for higher flow requirements.

All of the valves are automated by a central electronic controller. (Electromechanical or PLC Controller are available upon request.) The same controller can be used to automate up to four filter tanks simultaneously.

About Multi-Media Sediment Filtration

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.
