WECO CATX-1054-OZ Backwashing Whole House Water Filter With Catalytic Carbon
The WECO Backwashing filter with catalytic granular activated carbon (GAC) is a high-performance Point-Of-Entry (POE) filter designed to remove contaminants from water supplies.
The WECO Backwashing filter with catalytic granular activated carbon (GAC) is a high-performance Point-Of-Entry (POE) filter designed to effectively remove contaminants from water supplies. It reduces low levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), responsible for unpleasant odors and corrosiveness to metals. Additionally, it addresses issues related to low levels of ferrous iron, copper, and various organic compounds, ensuring improved water quality. The system, featuring a backwash mineral tank and a user-friendly controller, utilizes a backwashing process to clean and maintain the activated carbon bed for optimal filtration performance. This comprehensive solution offers reliable and trouble-free service for both residential and industrial water filtration needs.
WECO backwashing filters are offered in a range of sizes. For guidance in choosing the right filter size to fulfill your water purification needs, kindly reach out to WECO Technical Support for expert assistance.
Standard Features
Strength and durability. Non corrosive.
Unique water distribution technology creates fluidity of the media bed and extends contaminant removal capacity.
State-of-the-art control head designed for residential and commercial water applications requiring high flow rates.
Regulates all cycles of water filtration with a solid state microprocessor, front panel settings and LCD display.
Fully automated performance.
EOG generates active ozone during the backwash process and retains an ozone head in the filter. This assists in the oxidation and cleaning of contaminants trapped in the catalytic carbon filter bed.
The EOG system will also aid in eliminating undesirable odors, such as rotten egg, stale, or musty smells.
Standard MNPT (Male National Pipe Thread) inlet, outlet, drain, and 120 VAC electrical connections are provided. Various commonly used adapter sizes and styles are in stock available to accommodate your copper or PEX pipes.
Installation & operation manual included.
- Automated control of EOG module by the filter control valve.
- Onboard diagnostic LED light to convey real-time performance status of the unit.
- Operating Pressure 20-125 PSI
- Operating Temperature 40-110 °F
- Power Supply 120 VAC 60 Hz
- Output 12 VAC 500 mA
- Recommended hydrogen sulfide < 0.3 ppm
- Pre-treatment options are available for water chemistries that fall outside the recommended parameters. Feel free to contact us with your water report if you require assistance or guidance.
- Refer to the table below for backwash flow rate requirements. If you are unable to meet the backwash flow rate, consider running multiple units plumbed in parallel as a solution.
- Every unit is crafted to order and can be customized to meet specific well water temperature requirements before shipping.
- Efficiently removes chlorine, chloramine, and organic chemicals from water with high removal capacity.
- Effectively reduces low levels of hydrogen sulfide and various other contaminants from water.
- Enhances the taste and odor of well & municipal water.
- Operates with low operational costs.
Installation
External Bypass Valve Included
The bypass provides greater control over the equipment and the water supply to your house, offering service, bypass, diagnostic, and shutoff modes.
Drain Valve
A high-flow backwashing is conducted frequently (customizable) to prevent void areas in the medium from becoming filled with particles removed from the water, thereby preventing a pressure drop from the outlet. The backwash water is flushed through the drain.
Optional Stainless Flex Connectors
We recommend the use of full-flow flexible stainless steel connectors to reduce installation costs and upkeep expenses.
This eliminates the need for unions and allows tank expansion, which may prevent costly leaks.
Annual Maintenance
Inline Check Valve
Replaceable inline check valve part# 316-CV-OZ (every 12 months).
Corona Discharge cell cleaning kit part# OZCLEAN-KIT
