AQVA TOTAL 1 filter combination 20" BB - iron, manganese, odor

AQVA TOTAL 1 iron-manganese-odor- filter package

With this filter combination, you can replace the discontinued products AQ3XL-MF1-IRON-MAX, AQ3XL-MF1-IRON-MN, and AQ3XL-MF1-FE-IRON.

Renewed, More Efficient Three-Filter Iron-Line Filter Package in 20" BB / XL-Size for Higher Iron and Manganese Concentrations

Benefits:

• Improves the quality of domestic water
• Easy maintenance
• No drainage required
• Pressure release button
• Standard size 20" BB
• Simple to install and use
• No electricity needed

Purification Methods:

• First Stage: Oxidizing iron-manganese filter (AQFE2-XL), which effectively targets specific forms of iron and is particularly efficient for manganese.
• Second Stage: Ion-exchange-based iron-manganese filter (AQFEI-XL), highly effective for specific iron forms and also filters manganese.
• Third Stage: Activated carbon filter (AQCB-XL), which finalizes and refreshes water quality by removing various odors, tastes, and sediments from the water.

Filters:

• Iron
• Manganese
• Suspended solids down to 5 µm
• Odors and tastes
• Pesticides
• Other organic compounds

Theoretical Filter Cartridge Capacities:

• When the total concentration of iron, manganese, and humus (COD) is 1 mg/L (1000 µg/L): 600 m³
• When the total concentration of iron, manganese, and humus (COD) is 5 mg/L (5000 µg/L): 120 m³
• When the total concentration of iron, manganese, and humus (COD) is 10 mg/L (10000 µg/L): 60 m³
• Exception: The first 1 µm fine filter’s capacity depends on the amount of suspended solids and sediments, typically ranging between 24–50 m³. (It is recommended to keep one or two of these affordable filters in stock.)
• Note: The capacities and contaminant removal efficiency have been studied and tested internally through collaboration between AQVA’s water laboratory and development team, as well as in practical conditions. In real-world conditions, water quality, type, and often unknown seasonal variations in wells may affect performance and filter longevity.

Package Contents:

• Filter housings
• 1" nipples for connecting housings
• Sampling ball valves (with a 1/4" thread for a pressure gauge, AQ-PG15-14, sold separately)
• Housing wrench
• Wall-mount bracket
• Filter cartridges

Technical Specifications:

• 1" female threads
• Dimensions: Height 630 mm, Width 700 mm, Depth 200 mm
• Dry weight: 14 kg
• Refer to the user manual, available under the "Files" tab

System Requirements:

• Consistent inlet pressure: 2–10 bar
• Installed in the water line after a membrane pressure tank
• Operating temperature: 2–30°C
• Maximum iron concentration: 6 mg/L (6000 µg/L). Recommended below 4 mg/L (4000 µg/L)
• Maximum manganese concentration: 0.6 mg/L (600 µg/L). Recommended below 0.4 mg/L (400 µg/L)
• Maximum humus (COD): 15 mg/L. Recommended below 10 mg/L
• Maximum recommended flow rate with maximum contaminant levels: 15 liters per minute, corresponding to simultaneous use of 1–4 water points. Higher flow rates are possible if needed.
• Typical pressure drop at 8 liters per minute flow rate: approximately 0.8 bar. Usage and water contaminant levels may affect this.
• If the water contains significant rust sediment, an affordable 1 µm fine filter (AQ1XL-MF1) can be installed before the filter package.

Winter Storage:

• During winter, if temperatures drop below 2°C, to prevent frost damage, water lines should be shut off, and the filter housings drained.
