Product Features
For removal of Arsenic from water supplies
Media is rated for 3.0-7.0 GPM service flow per cubic foot of tank volume
Requires 3.0 GPM for backwash
As+3 that accounts for more than 20% of the total arsenic must be oxidized for effective removal
Product Description
This media provides removal of As+5 in most applications. As+3 that accounts for more than 20% of the total arsenic must be oxidized for effective removal. Amount of media needed for a stand-alone system can be determined by tank size.
8"x44" Tank - 0.5 cubic foot
9"x48" Tank - 1 cubic foot
10"x54" Tank - 1.5 cubic feet
12"x48" Tank - 2 cubic feet
13"x54" Tank - 3 cubic feet

Typical Results | 4-6 years average dependant on contaminant levels, backwash flow rates, and backwash frequency |
Service flow rate is the manufacturers recommendation for maximum contaminant removal at a constant flow for media alone. Intermittent flow rate and/or lower contaminant levels MAY allow higher treatment flow rates.
Backwash Flow Rates
The backwash flow rate is the minimum rate that MUST be available to ensure proper backwashing and adequate media life. While lower flows can be used and MAY provide adequate results, media life may be significantly reduced.
