Hydro Pretreatment
Turbidity and Carbon Filters

Pretreatment is a vital part of every high purity water filtration system. In order to protect your purification equipment, as well as improve the performance of all downstream components, various stages of pretreatment may be necessary.
Turbidity Filters are used to remove suspended particulates such as sand, silt and clay from the water. This will in turn enhance the performance of downstream equipment by removing the larger materials before the water reaches the fine stages of filtration. Using turbidity filters prevents down-time associated with fouling of the reverse osmosis membranes.
Three layers of media are specially selected for particle size and density to provide a decreasing porosity as water flows down through the bed. Higher flow rates are available with less presure drop and efficient particle removal to 10 microns.
Carbon Filters provide a high surface area and pore size distribution efficient for removal of a broad spectrum of organics. Granular activated carbon is made from select grades of bituminous coal. These filters also remove chlorine, which can damage some types of reverse osmosis membranes.

Water Softeners


Pretreatment is a vital part of every high purity water filtration system. In order to protect your purification equipment, as well as improve the performance of all downstream components, various stages of pretreatment may be necessary. Call your Hydro representative today to perform a free water analysis to custom fit the proper pretreatment systems for your purifications needs.

Water Softeners are used to remove hardness minerals, such as calcium and magnesium. An over abundance of these minerals can cause scaling of reverse osmosis membranes. Through an ion exchange process, the resins remove hardness causing cations and replace them with sodium, which will not impart damage to membranes. Softening resins are high capacity synthetic cation exchange resins for maximum regeneration efficiency.

Features

  • Solid state controls
  • Polybond pressure vessels
  • Automated regeneration process
  • Custom designed programmable
    control panels
  • Corrosion resistant piping
  • Non-corrosive polyethylene
    brine tank


 

Options

  • Skid mounted prepiped and
    prewired systems
