Sand filtration is frequently used and very robust method to
remove suspended solids from water. The filtration medium consists of a
multiple layer of sand with a variety in size and specific gravity. Sand
filters can be supplied in different sizes and materials both hand
operated or fully automatically.
Raw water pump is used for
generating necessary operating pressure in the pressure sand filter. Raw
water is passed through CHEMTRONICS Multigrade Sand Filter at a
pressure of 3.5 kg / cm2 to reduce the suspended solids present in the
raw water.The filter will effectively remove up to 30 – 50 micron of the
suspended solids to less then 5 ppm. The filter will have to be washed
with raw water for 20 to 30 minutes daily. To filter the partials below
30 – 50 micron cartridge filter is used.
Our design of Pressure
Sand filter ensures the maximum utilization of the surface area, the
lesser pressure drop across the filter bed and effective removal of the
impurities.
Applications for sand filtration :
Preparation of cooling water
Treatment of waste water
Production of drinking water
Filtration in swimming pools
Pre filtration for membrane systems
Filtration of gray or surface water
Swimming pool water
