How to choose

  • Order the sand by the filter design: grading (range in mm or mesh), effective size and uniformity coefficient.
  • New bed: build from the bottom up, from coarsest to finest grain, levelling each layer before the next.
  • Before putting the filter into service, backwash until the water runs clear: it removes the fine dust from the charge.
  • Store the bags covered and on pallets: wet sand weighs more and cakes.

Frequently asked questions

Why is this range used in the pulp industry?

Industrial water pressure filters run at a high flow per area. The 0.6 to 1.5 mm range clogs more slowly than 20 x 40 and still retains the turbidity of clarified water well. The filter specification always prevails.

What is the minimum quantity?

From one big bag (1 t) to full truckloads. For replacing the beds of several filters, send the volume of each and we calculate the charge.
