Filter-Ag General Purpose Filtration Media (A8014)

Clack Filter-Ag is a silica, crystalline quartz media which can be used as highly efficient filter media for the reduction of suspended matter.

Filter-Ag (A8014) offers efficient removal of suspended solids down to 20-40 microns thanks to its fractured edges and irregular surface. Its larger particle size reduces pressure loss and allows deeper sediment penetration, extending filter life. The unique shape prevents clogging and headloss buildup common in sand filters. Lightweight design lowers backwash rates and improves sediment release during cleaning. While not an iron reduction media, it effectively traps oxidized iron particles. Suitable for pressure or gravity systems, Filter-Ag supports high flow rates and water conservation, enabling smaller equipment and lower pumping costs.

FEATURES

- Less pressure loss through a bed of Filter-Ag® than through most other filter medias

- Light weight requires lower backwash rates than those required for other filter medias

- High service rates result in lower equipment costs and a savings in space

- High sediment reduction capacity results in longer filter runs, with a substantial savings in backwash water and time out of service

- Reduced shipping cost due to light weight/cu. ft.

- Replacement of sand with Filter-Ag in existing installations may increase filter capacity 100% or more. 

Available in 1.0 Cu.ft bags
