AQVA L-Size Filter System for Iron, Manganese, Hydrogen Sulfide, and Humus Removal
The AQVA L-size filter system is designed for advanced water purification, effectively removing iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide odors, and humus. This comprehensive water treatment solution ensures clean, odor-free, and safe water for household use, making it ideal for addressing metal, organic, and odor-related water quality issues.
Filtration Process:
- First
Stage: Fine Filtration
-
A 1 µm (1/1000th of a millimeter) fine filter (AQMF1-L) removes visible and
invisible suspended solids, delivering clear water. This stage also reduces
approximately 30% of humus, improving water clarity and quality.
- Second
Stage: AQVA IRON Filter
-
The AQVA IRON filter (AQ051), utilizing high-surface-area ion-exchange fiber
technology, targets iron and manganese, effectively reducing these metals for
high-quality water.
- Final
Stage: Hydrogen Sulfide and Odor Filtration
-
The AQCAT-L filter neutralizes hydrogen sulfide odors and other taste and odor
impurities, ensuring fresh, pleasant-tasting water.
Technical Specifications:
- Filter Housing: AQVA L-size, 10" Big Blue (BB)
- Connections: 1" brass-reinforced internal fittings
- No Electricity Required: Energy-efficient water purification
- No Drainage Needed: Hassle-free maintenance
- Easy Installation and Use: Includes housing wrench for straightforward upkeep
- Installation Location: Typically installed after a pressure water tank, before household water distribution
- Dimensions: H470 x W540 x D220 mm
Filtration Performance:
- Typical Flow Rate: Up to 8 liters per minute. Higher flow rates are possible, but filtration efficiency may temporarily decrease.
- Pressure Drop: 0.5–1.0 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 15 mg/L (60 mg/L KMnO4). Humus type may affect filtration efficiency and lifespan. For higher humus levels or within the specified limits, consider adding an AQVA MAX series humus filter to the system.
- Hydrogen Sulfide Removal: The system effectively reduces moderate hydrogen sulfide levels, suitable for noticeable but not overwhelming odors. As hydrogen sulfide levels cannot be precisely quantified through laboratory analysis and odor perception varies individually, exact specifications are not feasible.
Replacement Filters and Estimated Lifespan:
- AQMF1-L: 1 µm fine filter, approximately 18,000 liters.
- AQ051: AQVA IRON filter, approximately 160,000 liters at 1 mg/L iron content or 40,000 liters at 4 mg/L iron content.
- AQCAT-L: Hydrogen sulfide filter, approximately 70,000 liters.
*Filter lifespan and performance may vary based on overall water quality and seasonal fluctuations.
