5 MICRON POLY SPUN DIRT SEDIMENT WATER FILTER 20" X 4.5"
This poly spun type filter is suitable for all waters, bore tank, dam, creek etc. Poly spun filters are a disposable filter with a large surface area to give long life between changes.
This Poly spun filters is suited to relatively clean water for extraction of fines, and commonly used in front of a carbon filter.
Polyspun Sediment Cartridges are constructed from polypropylene which is spun and melted simultaneously. This technique means there is no centre core to restrict filter performance. The sediment filters are compatible with most liquids and are highly effective for sediment, rust, sand, silt, and algae removal.
The sediment filters have no chemical residuals. They are extremely high performing, and carry a heavy load of sediment before requiring replacement.
These filters provide:
- High performance
- High flow rate
- High load capacity
- The inability to grow bacterial slime
5 Micron Bacteriostatic Silver Impregnated Coconut Carbon Block
Our Silver Impregnated Carbon is a game-changer when it comes to filtering raw water. Not only does it effectively improve clarity, taste, and odor, but it also offers a unique advantage. This advanced media is bacteriostatic, meaning it actively inhibits the growth of carbon-fed bacteria within the filter. By preventing bio-fouling, it significantly prolongs the life of the cartridge, even during periods of non-use!
When it comes to filtering rainwater, tanks, and bores, Bacteriostatic (Silver Impregnated) Coconut Carbon is the ultimate choice. It is specifically designed to prevent bacteria from breeding and colonizing within the carbon, ensuring optimal performance and extending the lifespan of your filter. This makes it an ideal solution for maintaining water quality and protecting your investment.
In fact, if you really want to maximise the longevity of your carbon filter, you can take an extra step by drying it out between uses. By implementing this practice, you can further enhance the effectiveness and lifespan of your filter, providing you with consistently clean and fresh water.
Silver Impregnated Carbon not only guarantees exceptional filtration results, but it also ensures long-term cost savings by minimising the need for frequent cartridge replacements. Experience the difference and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with superior water filtration.
48 Watt High Output UV Lamp 4 Pin
High-output lamps offer system designers a unique opportunity to optimize system functionality while minimizing the required lamps. By utilizing these lamps, system designers can benefit from reduced system footprint, increased efficiency, and enhanced system capacity.
Here are some maintenance notes regarding UV systems:
Ultraviolet systems are rated based on the dosage level of UV-C radiation delivered into the water (measured in mJ/cm²). The standard level of disinfection is typically 30mJ/cm², and to comply with Australian Drinking Water Guidelines, a minimum dose of 40mJ/cm² is required. It's important to note that our lamps have a rated lifespan of 9000 hours (approximately 1 year), after which the lamp naturally degrades and the radiation level it produces cannot be guaranteed.
To safeguard the electrical components of the lamp from direct contact with water, the UV lamp is housed within a quartz thimble. We specifically use quartz (fused silica) for this purpose due to its strength, thermal resistance, and excellent UV transmission properties.
However, over time, metal ions embedded within the quartz thimble's silica structure can interfere with the UV-C radiation, reducing the UV transparency of the glass and making it more fragile. This phenomenon is known as solarization.
Additionally, the exterior of the quartz thimble can accumulate tannin, bio-film, algae, and scale, hindering the penetration of the lamp's ultraviolet light and impairing the system's ability to effectively sanitise the water passing through.
Considering these factors, we recommend replacing the lamp every 12 months and the thimble every 1-2 years to ensure optimal performance and maintain the system's effectiveness in water sanitization.
By following these maintenance guidelines, you can ensure the longevity and reliability of your UV system, allowing it to consistently deliver the highest level of water safety and sanitation.
