DRINKING WATER
With their unit concept that combines centrifugal separation and sand filtration, the VORTISAND
® filters ensure a greater filtration than traditional sand filters and are used for well water (for removal of iron and manganese), surface and city water polishing applications.
VORTISAND
® operates either on an intermittent or a continuous filtration flow basis depending on the application needs.
APPLICATION BRIEFS:
State Prison, Marlin , TX
After several "boil alert", VORTISAND filter followed by a 1 micron absolute cartridge filter was installed for a 100 % removal of giardia and cryptosporidium at a Federal Prison in Texas.
Skid mounted Potable water treatment system.
VORTISAND filters were used as part of a potable water treatment package for peacekeeping troops in Eastern Europe. Each portable water purification system treats 100 gpm of well water including a chemical feed operation, a VORTISAND sand filter to remove 2 microns size oxidized/precipitated iron particles and an activated carbon filter followed by a chemical disinfection process.
Packaged Potable water System
5.0 µM and 0,45µm in series. Inlet from 2 different pressurized supplies.
A is primary and B as backup. PLC uses municipal supply A and switches to supply B and alarms if supply A fails.
Bypass header allows total bypass of either filter during service with continued operation for 100% uptime (minus backwash).
Features:
Inlet pressure switches
Differential pressure switches
Inlet flow controlling valves restrict flow to prevent media attrition limiting inlet flow to exactly 100 GPM
Strainers on dP switches to prevent media migration to swtiches
Stainless Steel Piping
