Filox-R™ High Performance Media for Iron, Hydrogen Sulfide and Manganese Removal

High performance media for iron, hydrogen sulfide, and manganese removal. No oxidizing chemicals needed for regeneration. Filox-R™ out performs traditional media such as birm (x7,500) and Greensand. Highest flow rate of any standard iron removal media, 6 gpm/cu.ft service flow; 12-15 gpm/sq.ft backwash rate.

It requires a pH of 7 or more for iron removal and 8 for manganese removal plus a dissolved oxygen level of at least 15% of the iron and manganese content. It is very heavy, and needs a high backwash flow rate to remove the oxidised iron and manganese but gives a high service flow rate and out lasts Birm.
