CLACK® FILTER-AG+® TURBIDITY FILTERs

Clack’s Filter AG+ media will filter down to 3 to 5 microns, using a blend of a clinoptilolite natural media with a large surface area and microporous structure. This creates a surface area over 100 times greater than silica sand. The rough surface and internal porosity provide a high surface area for efficient reduction of suspended matter.

The turbidity removal media’s structure typically creates less pressure loss through the filter and allows deeper sediment penetration into the bed for higher sediment loading and longer filter runs. The deep bed filtration capacity of turbidity removal media prevents a rapid build-up of head loss and blinding problems that are associated with typical sand filters.

These are typically installed to remove any solids that may be in suspension within the water. The aim is to trap them between the filter media when the unit is in service. These will then be removed when the flow is reversed during the backwash cycle. They also help protect other treatment equipment as turbidity can blind other filter medias, causing them to lose their effectiveness.

Clack Filter AG+ units are suitable for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
