What does backwashing carbon filter do?

The Backwashing Carbon Filter is a large filter canister filled with activated carbon media. Activated carbon removes chlorine in a chemical reaction that oxidizes the carbon surface. Chlorine tastes and odors are removed. Sediment down to 30 microns in size is also removed by mechanical filtration.

Do carbon filters remove scales?

Carbon Filters
The carbon is usually carbonised coconut shell, which has a porous structure that filters out sediment and removes chlorine. Activated carbon is used a lot by the municipal water treatment industry as it is an effective way to process clean water. However, carbon filters alone do not remove limescale.

What is the difference between a sediment filter and a carbon filter?

Carbon and sediment filters serve two different functions. Sediment filters catch dirt and debris, while carbon captures organic compounds that cause bad tastes and odors. A sediment filter is a mechanical filter.

What are the advantages of a backwash filter?

Depending on the equipment, the backwash filters can automatically remove particles that are larger than five micrometres from the used cooling water. This makes it possible to reliably prevent a premature wear of the cooling systems through mechanical stress.
