Electromedia® VII is a unique permanent media filtration system integrating a special vessel design and proprietary media.

Electromedia® VII is formulated for the filtration of cooling tower water at slightly elevated temperatures operating at near calcium carbonate saturation.

Electromedia® VII effectively removes calcium carbonate, iron and other heavy metal precipitates.




OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS

  • Filter Rate: 15 gpm per sq. ft.
  • Backwash Rate: 20 gpm per sq. ft.
  • Required Backwash Time: 5 minutes Maximum.
  • Clean Filter Differential Pressure: 2 to 4 psi.
  • Terminal Differential Pressure: 25 psi.

Electromedia® VII is applied to open cooling tower recirculating streams to reduce cleaning cycles and improve heat transfer for:

Lower Energy Costs
Lower Maintenance Costs
Lower Chemical Costs
Less Down Time
Less Maintenance - Heavy Duty Construction
