Filtronics Pilot Test
Filtronics “full scale” pilot units
provide long term, real time data. The 20" unit pictured
below is the smallest full size filter we manufacture. The unit
provides approximately 2 square feet of filter area and can
be applied to flows of 10 to 30 gallons per minute depending
on the application. The unit is fully automated. Our technicians
will set the unit up for proper operation and train the personnel
who will operate the pilot plant for the rest of the test period.
Full support is always available by phone.
Actual field tests are required
for Filtronics to determine the treatability of the water source.The
purpose of the pilot plant is to verify the chemical oxidation
demand, determine the chemical feed rates, determine the electrical
operating costs, and document the removal efficiencies. All
tested water samples are sent to an independent laboratory for
substantiation. A pilot test provides the basis for the Filtronics
performance guarantee.
