The DAYLIFF 'FC' range of pressure sand filters is a proven and reliable choice for general water treatment and swimming pool applications. These filters offer a range of features to ensure efficient filtration and easy maintenance. Here are the applications and features of the 'FC' range:
Applications:
1. General Water Treatment: The 'FC' range is suitable for general water treatment applications, where the removal of sediment, taste, odor, chlorine, or other impurities is required. It can be used in various settings such as residential, commercial, or industrial water treatment systems.
2. Swimming Pools: These filters are also commonly used in swimming pool applications to remove sediment, debris, and impurities from the pool water, ensuring clean and clear water for swimmers.
Features:
1. Range of Models: The 'FC' range offers a selection of eight standard models, available in different diameters. The smaller diameters come in standard and deep bed configurations, providing options to match specific filtration requirements.
2. Construction Options: The filters are constructed using mild steel plates with domed ends, offering enhanced pressure capacity. For high-pressure applications, optional heavier gauge steel plates are available. Stainless steel construction is also offered for specialized food-grade installations.
3. Media Compatibility: The filters can accommodate various media types, including silica sand for sediment removal, activated carbon for taste, odor, and chlorine removal, activated carbon for fluoride removal, and anion resin for water softening.
4. Easy Access and Maintenance: The filters feature a 400mm diameter wide-range bolted access cover, making media charging and removal convenient. Deep bed filters also have a low-level side cover for easy media removal and general internal maintenance.
5. Corrosion Protection: The filters are internally coated with a standard bitumised coating for corrosion protection and long life. Optional GRP lining is available for installations where aggressive liquids are present.
6. Efficient Distribution and Collection: The filters are designed with high-efficiency internal distribution and collection manifolds. These ensure even filtration throughout the filter area and effective backwash flows, optimizing filtration performance.
7. Control Valve Options: The 'FC' range offers the choice of 'Novasfer' ball-type manifold-mounted valves or 'Midas' single-lever multi-port control valves (up to 2''). These valve arrangements provide control and flexibility in filter operation.
8. Installation Options: Multiple connection installation options are available, including series connection for increased filtration performance and parallel connection for high flow rates. These options allow for customization based on specific flow and filtration requirements.
It is essential to match the media and flow rate to the quality of the incoming water for successful application of pressure sand filters. Technical advice is available to ensure the correct specifications for individual applications, helping to optimize filtration performance and achieve desired water quality.
The DAYLIFF 'FC' range of pressure sand filters offers reliable and efficient filtration solutions for various water treatment and swimming pool applications. With their robust construction, media compatibility, and customizable features, they provide effective removal of impurities and ensure clean and clear water in different settings.
