Sterling - Model OC-1 -Filtration Media
OC-1 filter media work in a different way to standard sand and glass media as it works through settlement and harnesses advances in pump technology and variable speed pumps/controllers. The OC-1 filter media has benefits – by replacing existing sand and glass media with OC-1 it is possible to reduce the head loss in the filtration system.

OC-1 filters with a constant flow (regardless of debris entrapment) and significantly reduces energy costs whilst still filtering to the equivalent standard as it can be used with a smaller pump or a variable speed pump or controller.
OC-1 can be fitted to most types of commercial filters including GRP, Laminated and Steel filters with a small modifications to the filter internals.
- Reduces energy consumption – OC-1 maintains constant flow rates, even when the media becomes dirty.
- No downtime is required for heating/salt chlorinators/heat pumps going out on low flow. The constant flow means pumps can be run at lower speeds, thus saving energy.
- Huge capacity for debris collection – OC-1 offers over 20 times the capacity of sand or glass.
- Reduced requirement for backwashing and a more efficient backwash - Reduces water consumption, chemical usage and heating.
- Lightweight - Can even be shipped inside a filter, easy to handle and quick and easy to install.
- Less Maintenance - lasts longer than standard sand, reduces pressure in the system, extending the life of equipment.
- Filters to International swimming pool standards.
- Recyclable at end of product life.
- Payback typically 12-18 months.
