AQVA XL-Size Filter System for Iron, Manganese, and Humus Removal
The AQVA XL-size filter system is engineered for robust water purification, effectively removing iron, manganese, and humus. This high-capacity water treatment solution ensures clean, safe water for larger households or properties, addressing metal and organic impurities with exceptional efficiency.
Filtration Process:
- First Stage: Fine Filtration
A 1 µm (1/1000th of a millimeter) fine filter (AQMF1-XL) removes visible and invisible suspended solids, delivering clear water. This stage also reduces approximately 30% of humus, enhancing water clarity and quality.
- Second Stage: AQVA IRON Filter
The AQVA IRON filter (AQ052), utilizing high-surface-area ion-exchange fiber technology, targets iron and manganese, effectively reducing these metals to ensure high-quality water.
- Final Stage: AQVA MAX Filter
The AQVA MAX filter (AQ052X) focuses on removing humus, providing a final polish to the water for optimal purity and taste.
Technical Specifications:
- Filter Housing: AQVA XL-size, 20" Big Blue (BB)
- Connections: 1" brass-reinforced internal fittings
- Shut-Off Valves: Included for easy maintenance
- Housing Wrench: Simplifies filter replacement
- Wall-Mount Bracket: Facilitates secure installation
- No Electricity Required: Energy-efficient water purification
- No Drainage Needed: Hassle-free operation
- Easy Installation and Use: User-friendly design
- Installation Location: Typically installed after a pressure water tank, before household water distribution
- Dimensions: H750 x W540 x D220 mm
Filtration Performance:
- Typical Flow Rate: Up to 15 liters per minute. Higher flow rates are possible, but filtration efficiency may temporarily decrease.
- Pressure Drop: 0.4–0.8 bar at a flow rate of 10 liters per minute, influenced by filter usage.
- Operating Pressure: 2–6 bar. For higher pressures, a pressure reduction valve can be installed.
Raw Water Requirements:
- Maximum Iron Content: Up to 4 mg/L (4000 µg/L), recommended limit 2 mg/L.
- Maximum Manganese Content: Up to 1.2 mg/L (1200 µg/L), recommended limit 600 µg/L.
- Maximum Humus Content: COD 20 mg/L (80 mg/L KMnO4). Humus type may affect filtration efficiency and lifespan.
This system also reduces various metals, including lead, copper, cadmium, and uranium, enhancing overall water safety.
Replacement Filters and Estimated Lifespan:
- AQMF1-XL: 1 µm fine filter, approximately 18,000 liters.
- AQ052: AQVA IRON filter, approximately 300,000 liters at 1 mg/L iron content or 80,000 liters at 4 mg/L iron content.
- AQ052X: AQVA MAX filter, approximately 80,000 liters at a humus content of COD 5 mg/L after previous filters.
*Filter lifespan and performance may vary based on overall water quality and seasonal fluctuations.
