Description

Our Water Pre-Treatment FRP 13″ Diameter Carbon Filter Media Systems with Automatic Backwash Head are advanced filtration solutions designed to improve water quality by removing chlorine, unpleasant tastes, odours, organic compounds, and other contaminants before the water enters your primary treatment system. These fully automatic systems provide reliable, continuous filtration while minimising maintenance, making them ideal for residential, commercial, agricultural, and light industrial applications.

Each system is supplied complete with a 13-inch diameter Fibreglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) pressure vessel, premium activated carbon filter media, and a high-quality automatic backwash control valve. The automatic valve is programmable to perform scheduled backwash and rinse cycles, ensuring the filter media remains clean and operates at peak efficiency without manual intervention. This helps maintain excellent water quality, extend the life of the filtration media, and reduce ongoing maintenance requirements.

The lightweight FRP pressure vessel is manufactured from corrosion-resistant composite materials that will not rust or corrode, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, including coastal and high-humidity environments. Premium activated carbon effectively removes chlorine, unpleasant tastes and odours, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and residual chemicals, while also protecting downstream equipment such as reverse osmosis membranes, UV sterilisation systems, water softeners, pumps, and valves.

Available in a range of media capacities and flow rates, these compact systems provide dependable water pre-treatment for homes, offices, restaurants, guest houses, borehole systems, and commercial water treatment installations.
