Mixed MediaOur mixed media contains 4 sizes of media that will greatly enhance a filter's performance, reduce backflush frequency and prevent channeling. The coarse top layer is carbonite with sizes between 2.0 and 2.2 mm. This material can remove iron and manganese that adhere loosely to the angular carbonite particles and backwashes easily. Ratios of each media are based on years of use in other industries. Our media is premixed in 1 cubic foot containers, which weigh approximately 80 pounds each.
The specific gravity of multimedia is between 1.6 and 4.2 (sand is 2 to 2.8), so the backwash pressure or volume may have to be adjusted. |
