Electromedia VII - Cooling Tower Side Stream Filtration

Electromedia VII is applied to open cooling tower recirculating streams to reduce cleaning cycles and improve heat transfer for:

• Lower Energy Costs
• Lower Maintenance Costs
• Lower Chemical Costs
• Less Down Time
• Less Mainintenance - Heavy Duty Construction

Cooling Towers by design flush airborne contaminants into the system where they deposit on heat exchange surfaces. Suspended matter in the cooling water also supplies living micro-organisms with a constant food source for sustaining life and multiplying.

The most effective filter system for cooling towers and process water is a permanent media unit with side stream filtration. With side stream filtration, contaminants can be removed before they increase the cost of operating the water-cooled equipment or shut the system down.

As a result of aggressive laws which are now being enforced, industrial companies, institutions and commercial operations are re-evaluating methods to treat their cooling tower waters. Additionally, increased chemical, utility, disposal and training costs make this issue a priority with many organizations.

Filtronics will design a simple, proven and cost-effective filtration system based upon influent quality, economics and space management. Filtronics uses only ANSI/NSF Standard 60 and ANSI/NSF Standard 61 compliant media.

FILTRONIC’S ELECTROMEDIA VII effectively and efficiently removes scale and airborne contaminants to acceptable levels.

• Complete Filtration Solution
• Permanent Filtration Media
• High Filtration Rates
• Microprocessor Controlled for Simplified Operation, Monitoring & Maintenance
• Practical and Cost Effective

Our standard controls package uses a PLC and graphic display panel for automatic, unattended operation. Automatic filter controls include reset timers for filtration, backwash and purge. Backwash is initiated by time or differential pressure override. Controls housed in a NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 enclosure.

• Flow range from 30 to 2,300 gpm simplex units.
• 60 psi pressure tank ASME code, stamped. (Higher pressures available.)
• Filter tanks are carbon steel, epoxy lined at all wetted surfaces.
• Backwash flow controls, air release valves, automatic filter control valves.
• Standard interior fittings: PVC, and/or stainless steel.
• Each tank fitted with 12” X16” access hatches, 6” x 8” hand holes, or anways depending on filter size.
