Activated Carbon


  

IDEAL FOR REDUCING CHLORINE !

Granular activated carbon (GAC) is commonly used for reducing organic matter, tannins, colour, odour, chlorine, chemicals and residual disinfectants in water supplies. Activated carbon is a favored water treatment technique because of its multifunctional nature and the fact that it adds nothing detrimental to the treated water. The two principal mechanisms by which activated carbon removes contaminants from water are adsorption and catalytic reduction.  Organics are reduced by adsorption and residual disinfectants are reduced by catalytic reduction. Organic material in water supplies comes from decaying plant life, which become more soluble in water over time. Activated carbon reduces chlorine to a non-oxidative chloride ion. The reaction is very fast and takes place in the first few inches of a new activated carbon bed.  

Just 1 gram of activated carbon has up to 3000m2 (square meters) of surface area!


Activated Carbon Media 1.25kg / 3.4 LTR CARTON

Unit Volumes & Surface Area:
NW25TE-CTN, DUO-CTN = 0.57 LTR (6x refills), area = 625,000 m2 by adsporption.


NW32TE = 1.7 LTR (2x refills), area = 1,875,000 m2 by adsporption.


NW500 = 4.85 LTR, area = 5,325,000 m2 by adsporption.


For hygienic reasons and in order to make the best use of its functions and efficiency, it is recommended to change the activated carbon at least every four to six months.
In order to preserve the adsorption capacity of activated carbon, a sediment filter before the carbon unit is recommended to filter out suspended solid particles.


The NW25-DUO unit is a dual-function system consisting of a sediment filter combined with an internal container for activated carbon media for dechlorination of water, removal of unpleasant odour and colour, improving the taste of drinking water, removal of chemicals such as herbicides and pesticides.

Installation: Ideal for whole house water treatment.

Maintenance: 1.25kg carton of carbon is sufficient for 6 REFILLS

It is recommended to change the activated carbon at least after each 4 to 6 months of use with rainwater or when other contaminants are noticed.

Replace the sleeve of the filter at least twice a year depending on the volumes and quality of the water supply. The standard product comes with a filter fineness of 25 micron but can be equipped with 10, 5 or 1 micron for finer filtration of town supplies. The type of sleeve used is the same used in the model NW25 found here.

For chlorinated supplies, ensure you run your tap for around 10 seconds to flush your plumbing before using the water.

IDEAL FOR RURAL, RAINWATER & TOWN SUPPLY PURIFICATION!
