The range includes a complete choice of ball valves, butterfly valves and check valves. FK Butterfly...

CHEMICAL DOSING The chemical dosing is a crucial part of swimming pool and aqua park processes because the suspended particles are different in size, composition, charge and density. The addition of coagulants and flocculants is an essential method used before the filtration process and it is necessary to destabilize and agglomerate colloidal matters. In most of these cases, the chemicals used are corrosive and dangerous. For this reason, it is required high chemical resistance and extended lifetime of the system.

SAND FILTRATION Sand filtration is the heart of the process and it is used for achieving an accurate removal of suspended solids and pathogens. This kind of filtration system is the most common and simple to use with low maintenance and long lifetime. Furthermore, the sand, as filter medium, is easy to find in the market and the filtration quality can improve thanks to coagulation and flocculation processes. Sand filtration system is equipped with automated backwashing and rinsing in order to keep a high level of efficiency. FEButterfly valve Main features ■ Ergonomic multifunctional handle in...

MEMBRANE FILTRATION Membrane filtration is another common kind of pool filter for the removal of particulates and natural organic material. Particularly, microfiltration (MF) through cartridge filter is the most used membrane filtration in the swimming pool & SPA industry, removing material up to approximately 5 microns. MF filters finer particles and requires less water flow and less energy than a sand filter. On the other side, the cartridge filter uses a paper filter medium which simply does not last as long as sand media and requires replacement every 3-5 years. VXE Easyfit 2-way ball valve...
