VORTISAND in-line serie (partial model listing)
|
|
Full flow or process applications (pre ro, water reuse, etc).
Our "A" Serie is used for In-line applications to ensure a continuous or intermittent flow – the flow can be maintained during backwash operation. When one vessel is in backwwash mode the remaining vessels ensure the selected flow. VORTISAND
® filers are available in a variety of materials and components depending on each application requirements.
Sonitec manufactures customized systems based on your specifications.

* Based on 15 gpm /sq.ft flowrate
Any combination of same vessel diameters can be used in parallel to achieve desired filtration flow rates. Sonitec shall require an application data sheet to be filled out on all non-standard applications for final sizing and pricing.
Sonitec does not recommend the use of the VORTISAND® filter for applications where oil and grease are present. However, the filter could be used if the following measures are carefully taken:
Bacteria controls must be rigorous. A too high bacteria level will contaminate the filter media and will create channeling inside the media. This situation will lead to a media carry over on the filtrate side of the filter.
Presence of oil and grease will lead to the same phenomenon as bacteria but could also lead to complete clogging of media. This will require the replacement of the media.
