Waterco Micron S500 20" Top Mount Fiberglass Sand Filter | 2.12 Sq. Ft. 41 GPM | 2201224NA

$311.27

Proven Strength and Durability

Micron filters operate on the basis of "depth filtration"; dirt is driven through the filter bed and trapped in minute spaces between the particles of filter media allowing the cleansed water to pass through the filter's laterals and exit via the filter's Multiport valve.

Features

Inflow diffuser for even distribution of water flow across the filter bed
Pressure gauge
Multiport valve with quick connect barrel unions (sold separately)
Fiberglass wound tank, UV and corrosion resistant
Hydraulically balanced laterals to maximize water flow and filtration
Manual drain
Large filter base for stable floor mounting
Working pressure 36 psi
Maximum working temperature of 50°CC (122°F)

Filament Wound Construction

Micron fiberglass filters embody the latest in fiberglass winding technology. Micron fiberglass vessels consist of an inner shell of fiberglass reinforced polyester resin wound over with fiberglass filament. Waterco's digitally controlled filament winding machine faultlessly winds continuous strands of high quality fiberglass filament under controlled tension filament to create a seamless one-piece vessel with refined consistency and superior quality. There are no welds or seams or special tank linings which can corrode or electrolyse.

Micron "Fish Tail" Laterals

Conventional laterals have "dead legs" existing between the laterals, which exist between the laterals, which compromises water flow through the filter bed. Waterco's unique "fish tail" lateral configuration eliminates this problem by providing effective coverage of the filter bed and balanced water flow.

Filament Wound filters are equipped with "Fish Tail" laterals, to improve its filtration and backwashing hydraulic efficiency
Fish Tail laterals provide effective coverage of the filter bed and balanced water flow, during backwashing
Filament Wound filters backwash time is significantly reduced, leading to a 30% savings of backwash water

Energy Saving "Fish Tail" Laterals

The filament wound filters hydraulic efficiency halves the backwash flow rate of a conventional sand filter, allowing the option for low powered, energy efficient pumps for filtration flow and backwash flow.

Simple Maintenance

The effectiveness and efficiency of the filter is impaired by excessive build up of debris, clogging the media, which will result in pressure build up and poor circulation. Cleaning the filter simply requires turning the filter’s Multiport lever from the "filter" position to the "backwash" position, which reverses the flow of water in the filter, flushing the filter bed.
