Suited to the industrial sector, the lower capacity ECB suits batch process, where a longer service life is not required. For 2019, the carbon formulation has been upgraded, significantly improving chlorine removal efficiency to 60% from 35%, serving for a more reliable and dependable economic block. Manufactured using acid washed bituminous carbon, a highly microporous structure targets larger organic molecules such as benzene. This ensures the removal of ash and reduces rinse-up fines often found with non-acid washed bituminous carbon. Available in 3 micron sizes, the ECB offers flexibility to suit different applications where sediment could plug the carbon before service life is achieved.

Suited to the industrial sector, the lower capacity Core grade carbon block suits batch process, where a longer service life is not required. Manufactured using acid washed bituminous carbon, a highly microporous structure targets larger organic molecules such as benzene. This ensures the removal of ash and reduces rinse-up fines often found with non-acid washed bituminous carbon. Available in 3 micron sizes, the Core grade carbon block offers flexibility to suit different applications where sediment could plug the carbon before service life is achieved.
 

Offered in both granular carbon and block options are the range of Chloramine reduction cartridges from Pentair.

Granular Carbon:

Targeting chloramines for over 250,000 litres, the CRFC-20BB radial flow design offers the benefits of granular activated carbon, whilst at the same time significantly reducing the release of carbon fines commonly associated with other granular carbon designs.

Carbon Block:

The ChlorPlus in its block configuration, reduces chloramine levels to below the guideline 0.1 ppm from a 1 ppm feed for over 26,000 litres in its standard 10" configuration. As a pre-filter in renal applications, these cartridges are the perfect choice for extending membrane life, primarily due to the absence of carbon fines, which are a common by-product of granular carbons.

Ion-X from SPECTRUM is an effective range of contaminant removal cartridges.

The SRSO effectively reduces calcium and magnesium hardness levels in feed water, preventing scaling that causes premature failure and increased energy costs in equipment, such as small commercial boilers and steam ovens. Large capacity cartridges can be utilised to lower total hardness levels in closed loop systems to acceptable levels

Dosing – Slowly dissolves into the filtrate to continually feed the required treatment

The SPECTRUM PCB is specifically formulated for effective chloramine control and the only cartridge to offer this feature within the range. Having been manufactured within a five-stage process, this exceptional catalytic activated carbon cartridge offers up to 10 times the capacity of the SCB.

Essential for use in public water supplies where chloramine has been added as the disinfecting agent of choice, the PCB will typically be found within applications including aquatics and renal dialysis. Rated at one micron, pre-filtration from the SPECTRUM TruDepth range, such as the PSP at five micron, is recommended to maximise service life and prevent premature blocking.

Typical Applications

• Renal
• Aquatic
• Home brewing
• Hydroponics

Ion-X from SPECTRUM is an effective range of contaminant removal cartridges.

Delivering excellent selectivity of heavy metals including zinc, mercury and copper from potable water supplies, the SHRM also provides water softening properties without the sodium dosing usually found with exclusive softening cartridges. The SRHM can be combined with other filtration and treatment products for a comprehensive solution.

Ion-X from SPECTRUM is an effective range of contaminant removal cartridges.

The SRDI excels in the production of high purity water with average conductivity levels of 0.1µS/cm. The SRDI can be used in conjunction with a sediment pre-filter to deliver small batches of DI water straight from the tap. Where demand increases, the SRDI can be situated post-RO for the polishing of permeate water

Water treatment processes:

Ion exchange – Attracts the targeted elements and releases selected ions into the water stream e.g. softening, nitrate removal, de-ionisation.

Catalysis – Reacts with the targeted elements to change their physical properties e.g. treatment of dissolved iron to precipitate from solution.

Dosing – Slowly dissolves into the filtrate to continually feed the required treatment

Nitrates - Ion-X SRNI: 20"

Nitrate often reaches surface and groundwater by runoff from agricultural activities, such as usage in fertiliser. SRNI cartridges can reduce toxic nitrate levels below WHO limits of 50mg/L, exchanging harmful nitrates for chloride ions.
