Acquasorb (A-200) canisters. Our finest canister

Won't bulge, leak or rust apart. The top is made of  heavy gauge domed steel and powder coated for durability. The interior has dual liners and a heavy domed internal bottom. Each has a built in 30 psi pressure relief valve and influent - effluent sample / pressure ports. Gauges and sample valves sold separately. Inlet and outlet on top. All canisters are pressure tested before shipping. Units are down flow oriented and  capable of being backwashed. Max operating temp 140oF.  Add 90 lbs. to media weight for dry shipping weight, include 50 lbs. if shipped on pallets (up to four drums per pallet).

bullet1: Flow rate based on 5 minute retention time
bullet2: Reduced flow to increase retention time for MTBE applications due to high solubility of MTBE. 
bullet3: Manufacturers recommended retension time for this media is 15 minutes. If absorption residue is light flow rates can be increased as high as 10 gpm.

 

Options

Sample / Pressure kit: Influent and effluent sample ports, guages for recording cross bed pressure drop. Pressure differential will build as units become fouled. Fouling can be reduced with the use of our bag filter kits.

 

Comes pre-assembled as shown. 1/4" PVC Valves, 0-60 psi gauges. Recommended for first time purchase of A-200 canister.

Part # A200GS Kit

 

A-200 Connection Kit: Sold pre-assembled. Allows user to easily connect A-200's in series and in parallel. Connections are 1" female cam lock in and out. Allows easy switch of flow direction for occasional backwashing. (note: to prevent clogging, never backwash into another carbon filter in the train. This will only foul the following canister. Instead backwash into an empty drum and allow sediments to settle. Once settled, decant the clear liquid on top and dispose of the slurry below).  Click here for photo of a single train of 2 canisters.

Kits available for other arrangements. See chart below for part numbers.
