Model PROTECT TW -Carbon Adsorber Canisters
The PROTECT TW carbon adsorber canisters are economical water treatment units for short term usage applications. PROTECT TW canisters contain all of the operating elements required for utilization of granular activated carbon in water treatment, including a corrosion resistant underdrain for effective treated water collection. The PROTECT TW canisters are constructed of carbon steel with a corrosion resistant inner coating for use with granular activated carbon in water treatment.
The PROTECT TW carbon adsorber canisters are available in 3 convenient sizes that will contain 500, 1000, and 2000 pounds of granular activated carbon for treating water sources up to 80 gpm. The PROTECT TW canisters can be provided with any of Calgon Carbon’s wide variety of liquid phase granular activated carbon products that can be specifically selected for a specific water or liquid treatment application. Most commonly used are Filtrasorb grade virgin activated carbon for higher purity water or optimal carbon usage for low levels of organic contamination, or DSR series quality controlled reactivated grade carbon for a more economical carbon product or wastewater treatment.
Features / Benefits
The PROTECT carbon adsorber canisters offer several important features that make it an effective value driven option for many water treatment applications:
- Sturdy carbon steel construction
- Capable of operating up to 75 psig as canisters are shop hydrotested at higher pressures after fabrication.
- Interior is coated with a corrosion resistant high solids epoxy coating
- Exterior painted with a durable urethane finish
- Operating temperature up to 140 degrees F
- Top 12X16 access port for activated carbon media fill and removal
- Lower PVC laterals with carbon retention slots for even water collection and maximum activated carbon utilization.
- Top inlet flow defector to allow introduction of influent water above the carbon bed
- Top lifting lugs and bottom forklift guides for portability
