Sediment Filters | Cartridge Filters

 Sediment filters are designed to remove suspended solids, often referred to as turbidity, sediment or particulate.

The nature and size of these solid particles can vary greatly from soil particles, sand, organic debris to iron oxide and manganese oxide. Particulate filters can be used whether on their own or more commonly as part of a more comprehensive filtration system – iron and manganese filter systems for example sometimes use a back-washable particulate filter

Particulate filtration is also necessary as a form of pre-filtration prior to an ultra violet (U.V.) steriliser. A pre-filter removes particulate matter above 5 microns enabling the U.V. to destroy the bacteria.

JN Environmental supply cartridge filters in a combination of media (polyester, polypropylene, carbon) and constructions (pleated, spun, wound) depending on the size of the particles being removed, the flow rate and whether chlorine / cyst removal is required.

Cartridge filters fit a range of industry standard housings the most popular being the standard and wide (big blue) versions in 10” and 20” lengths and as with the cartridges, a vast number of options and permutations exist.
