Description
Filox-R Media works by catalytic oxidation, its excellent catalytic properties mean that it can often be used without any additional oxidation depending on the presence of dissolved oxygen in the water. However, even with enough dissolved oxygen present in the water (higher than -170 milivolts) it is recommended to use additional oxidising agents (such as oxygen, ozone, chlorine, hydrogen peroxide or potassium permanganate) for improved performance.
Filox-R requires a pH of 7 or more for iron removal and a pH of 8 or more for manganese removal. The media gives a high flow rate and out lasts Birm, but it is heavy and requires a high backwashing flow rate to remove oxidised iron and manganese. The use of oxidising agents is recommended, highly reducing waters may cause premature exhaustion.
Key Product Information
- Superior particle strength holds up during frequent backwashing
- Can be used without additional oxidation in some applications
- High manganese dioxide content (75-85%)
- 7500x longer lifespan than Birm media
- Chlorine tolerant media
ORP over -170mV indicates Filox-R can be used
