	Filters Abtech have a large range of Filters, for whatever your water treatment needs may be. FMA Automatic Backwash Multi Media Filter For removal of suspended solids The impurities in water can be divided into the following broad categories ~ Suspended Matter Dissolved Salts Dissolved Organic Matter The suspended matter that is readily visible as discrete particles can be removed by conventional filter media such as sand, paper or other synthetic media.

	FMA-SS Automatic Backwash Multi Media Filter For removal of suspended solids Separate Stream Backwash for Process Applications eg. Cooling Towers FMA-SS Specification Sheet
	FCA Activated Carbon Filter For removal of Chlorine, taste and odour Application and Service Life of the Activated Carbon Operating life of activated carbon depends on many factors. The main factors are raw water quality and application ~ Raw Water Quality Suspended Matter (Turbidity) Colloidal Material Organic Material - both dissolved and colloidal Chlorine Dechlorination On feedwater free of organics and suspended matter dechlorination is catalytic and the life of the carbon is five to ten years. This is seldom the case in treating natural water supplies. Removal of Organics, Taste & Odour The carbon has a finite capacity and should be replaced when this capacity is exhausted. This is determined by “breakthrough”; the appearance of organics, taste or odour in the effluent. In Summary The need for carbon bed replacement is difficult to define, it may be three months to ten years. Many users replace the carbon after one, two or three years operation. Continual testing is the only way to ensure the full capacity of the carbon is used. FCA-A, F & F40 Specification Sheet
	FNA Neutralizing Filter For pH correction and removal of small amounts of corrosive acidity in water. When acidic water is passed through the bed, the media will slowly dissolve, neutralizing the acidity. The filter must be backwashed at regular intervals to clean the bed and keep pressure drop to a minimum. This is normally accomplished by an adjustable timer. FNA-F5000, M40 & 2A Specification Sheet
	IRS Iron Removal Systems For removal of Iron, Manganese, Hydrogen Sulphide, taste and odour Utilizes catalytic media to oxidize, precipitate and filter the iron and manganese and also removes taste & odour associated with these metals and sulphides. IRS F40, M40 & P80 Specification Sheet Contact Abtech for all your Filter needs.
