The efficiency and effectiveness of any water filtering system depend on the filtering media. Filtronics' exclusive Electromedia® permanent filtrering media is the most effective and economical filtering media available today.
Electromedia® is a granulated, naturally occurring, sand-like filtering media that can filter particles as small as 2 microns.
It is not a resin, plastic, or silica product, but instead a specially processed mineral that can filter up to 15 gpm/ft2 - with the same or better performance than other systems that filter only 3-5 gpm/ft2.
By combining the remarkable filtering capabilities of Electromedia® with Filtronics' highly advanced system design, performance is optimized for every phase of operation including standard backwash, which takes only 4 minutes and thus reduces the quantity of waste materials to be handled. Competitive systems require 15 minutes or more.
The bottom line is a water filtration system that requires less space to operate, offers far better filtering effectiveness, and provides greater overall economics in virtually every application!
