Automatic activated carbon filter
It is a team designed and calculated with with a size range of 12 x 40 US Std. Mesh, being smaller than the 8 x 30 US Std. Mesh size the diffusion speed increases, therefore the speed of dechlorination and adsorption of organic pollutants it becomes faster. This means that with a smaller volume of bed we can achieve the same performance of a larger volume bed of a carbon with a larger particle size.
Available configurations:
Simple automatic equipment with timer: Carbotecnia dual load single tank equipment, with manual or automatic control valve for backwash by time (every certain number of days or on a certain day of the week). Recommended for domestic or commercial use, and operation less than 23 hours.
Multiple automatic equipment: This configuration is only available for premium valves with industrial control (Clack WS2H and WS3). With this option, up to 16 units can be operated.
- Parallel or duplex equipment: This option allows all filtration units to operate at the same time, except that one filter in the system is in the backwash stage. This system is programmed in such a way; that when one of the equipment requires to perform its backwashing either due to time or pressure drop, the sequence of backwas serial of all equipment in the system; starting with the one that sent the signal.
- Progressive flow equipment: This option is ideal when the demand for water varies and we have peak operating flows at different times of the day. This function consists of setting a flow value at which one or more equipment will come into operation in order to satisfy the required flow. A flow value must be specified for the incorporation of each of the equipment in the system.

Components of a filter:
Fiberglass Tank: Manufactured in one piece with a polypropylene interior lined with fiberglass for mechanical and weather resistance. No need for external maintenance. Maximum operating pressure 150 psi.
Automatic control valve or head: It is the component that passes raw or untreated water through the bed of , includes inlet, outlet and drain connections; It allows us to switch between the different service or backwash positions, automatically programmed by time. Maximum operating pressure 125 psi.
Granular filter medium: C12 x 40 mesh Micro K coconut shell activated charcoal with a minimum BET surface area of 600 m2/ g.
Lower distributor and distribution tube: The lower distributor or baskets are a micro-grooved element that allows a correct distribution of the flow in the backwash position, and operates as a physical barrier that does not allow the leakage of the granular medium to the outlet line, in the service position. There are simple distributors, stack type or distributors with lateral tubes, spider type; their selection depends on the flow of service and backwash, as well as the diameter of the tank. Its construction material is HDPE or ABS. The central tube is a Ced PVC tube. 40 connecting the lower distributor with the head or control valve.
Support Gravel: 1/8 x 1/16 US Std. Mesh Support Silica Gravel. By having a micro-grooved distributor, the need to place several gravel beds of different granulometry is eliminated.
