Multi Media Sand Filters – Reliable Filtration for Industrial, Commercial, and Municipal Applications
Multi Media Sand Filter Water treatment systems play a vital role in ensuring safe, clear, and high-quality water for various uses. Among the most trusted and widely adopted solutions is the Multi Media Sand Filter, designed to effectively remove suspended solids, sediments, turbidity, and other impurities. By combining layers of carefully selected filtration media, these systems provide superior clarity and protection for downstream processes, making them essential in industries such as hospitality, manufacturing, swimming pool maintenance, and municipal water treatment.
How Multi-Media Sand Filtration Works
A Multi-Media Sand Filter relies on several layers of filtration media, each engineered to capture different types and sizes of contaminants:
- Anthracite or Garnet Layer: Removes larger suspended particles.
- Sand Layer: Captures finer particles, silt, and turbidity.
- Gravel Support Layer: Ensures proper water distribution and supports the finer media.
This layered arrangement increases filtration efficiency by trapping particles at multiple levels, preventing clogging and allowing for longer filter runs compared to traditional single-media filters. The result is consistently clearer water with reduced turbidity.
Robust Design with Pentair FRP Vessels
Multi-Media Sand Filters from Aqua Best UAE are built using durable Pentair FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) vessels, which provide corrosion resistance, lightweight handling, and long-term reliability. Available in a wide range of sizes, these vessels can be configured for diverse flow rates and treatment capacities, including:
- 10×35, 13×54, 16×65, 18×65, 21×60, 24×65, 24×72, 30×60, 30×73, 36×72, 42×72, 63×67, and 63×86.
These options ensure versatility, allowing businesses and municipalities to select the right filter size according to their specific requirements.
Easy Operation and Maintenance
Designed with top and bottom openings (1″ through 6″) and optional manways, these filters are easy to install, inspect, and service. They also integrate USA-made Clack control valves, which enable automatic backwashing. During backwash cycles, the flow of water is reversed to flush out trapped particles, restoring media efficiency and extending system lifespan.
This automatic functionality reduces manual intervention, making the system user-friendly and cost-effective for large-scale operations.
Performance and Capacity
Multi-Media Sand Filters are capable of handling service flows from 0.5 to 333 gallons per minute, making them suitable for a broad spectrum of applications:
- Swimming Pools: Provides clear, debris-free water, ensuring safe recreational environments.
- Industrial Facilities: Removes particulates from process water, protecting downstream equipment.
- Municipal Water Treatment: Improves water clarity, meeting public health and safety standards.
- Commercial Buildings: Ensures clean water supply for hotels, resorts, and residential complexes.
The adaptability of these filters allows them to operate in single or duplex configurations, ensuring continuous water supply during service or regeneration cycles.
Key Benefits
- High Efficiency in Particle Removal – Multi-media design captures a wide range of contaminants.
- Durable Construction – Pentair FRP vessels offer strength, corrosion resistance, and longevity.
- Automatic Backwash – Clack control valves maximize efficiency and reduce maintenance time.
- Versatility – Wide range of vessel sizes and flow capacities suit small to large applications.
- Continuous Operation – Duplex setups ensure uninterrupted water filtration.
