Multi-media water filter systems are ideally suited for use where stringent water quality standards are required or where higher levels of suspended solids are present. These applications can include re-use applications, water pre-treatment applications for reverse osmosis and deionization systems or as a pre-treatment system prior to disposable bag or cartridge filters.

Multi-media filters remove suspended particles from water and are primarily suited for feed water turbidity of up to 20 NTU. In the filtration process, large particulate matter is captured in the top of the filter bed. Different type of media can be used depending on the application, such as turbidity, Taste, Odor & Color, Iron and manganese removal.
