Industrial filter for the removal of iron and manganese AQ OPZ

Product detailed description

Fully automatic industrial iron removal units AQ OPZ are designed for the removal of iron (up to 10 mg/l) and manganese (up to 2 mg/l) from water. They are an ideal solution for water treatment in homes or industries, as well as in hotels and restaurants.

Extended warranty of 3 years.

Effective filtration thanks to the special material Pyrolusite

The fully automatic industrial iron removal units AQ OPZ are the only ones on the market that use the special filtering material Pyrolusite, which has proven to be the most effective for removing iron and manganese from water. Unlike other materials, the filtering material Pyrolusite is capable of working excellently even at a reduced pH value (from 7 and higher). The Pyrolusite filtering material is included in the packaging of each iron removal unit in the appropriate quantity.

As a side but beneficial effect of water oxidation using sodium hypochlorite (not included in the price of the OPZ filter), is disinfection and elimination of all bacteria and viruses from the water. Therefore, you will have not only water free from iron and manganese but also well-disinfected water.

Regeneration of the AQ OPZ filter

The fully automatic industrial iron removal units AQ OPZ ensure a constant flow of treated water and are equipped with a modern computer for controlling the regeneration or backwashing process. Due to the accumulation of removed iron in the filtering material of the device, the iron removal units always use the so-called "time regeneration/backwash". Regeneration/backwash is carried out after a certain time interval that is set according to your needs and conditions (e.g., every Wednesday, or twice a week).

Technical information

The control units have a built-in backup battery, so in the case of a short-term (up to 12 hours) power disconnection, the computer settings remain intact.

The iron removal units only differ in size and the type of control head. The principle of operation is the same. Other characteristics such as nominal/maximal flow, pressure drop, dimensions, etc. can be found in the technical information table. 

• It is necessary to have a connection to a drainage close to the filtration system, where the accumulated iron and manganese from the filtration will be discharged
• The minimum operating pressure must be 2.5 bar

The product is certified and intended for contact with drinking water.

Transport of the filtration device

We recommend sending the equipment on a pallet to avoid damage during transport.

Installation and service of the device

Installation and transport will be handled by our own service technicians (we have 14 authorized service technicians throughout the Czech Republic and Slovakia). If you are interested, we will gladly create a price quote for you. The installation price depends on the complexity and the materials used (connecting hoses, valves, etc.).

We recommend performing service replacements regularly once a year. The price for a service replacement is CZK 1,990 + travel costs, which is charged a flat rate of CZK 590 (CZK 990 for Prague and Brno) in cases where the technician's trip is combined with other installations or services along the way.
