WaterCo Multi cyclone Pre-Filter
Waterco are proud to introduce the MultiCyclone, a filtration device that is capable of saving water and reducing filter maintenance. After extensive research and development, production is now under way. This is a completely new product to the swimming pool/water treatment industry and will revolutionise the filtration system. As the market is becoming increasingly sensitive to green issues such as water saving and energy efficiency, the MultiCyclone is an eco-friendly product at an affordable price. The MultiCyclone works on the basis of centrifugal water filtration. There are no moving parts to wear and tear and no filter media to clean or replace.
Incoming water is guided by a diverter plate so that it enters multiple hydro cyclones tangentially, generating a strong centrifugal effect. This spins the sediment out to the hydro cyclone’s wall and then spirals it down to the sediment sump, while the cleansed water spirals upwards.
The accumulation of sediment can be visibly monitored through the MultiCyclone’s clear sediment sump. It is cleaned by simply opening the purge valve. Only 15 litres of water is discharged to clean the unit of sediment.
Save Water
The MultiCyclone is ideal as a pre-filter to extend the life of your existing filter. It will filter out up to 80% of the incoming sediment from your swimming pool or pond. The unit works together with a sand, cartridge or DE filter to polish the water. It allows the installation of finer filtration systems, such as cartridge filters with finer cartridges and the sand filters with finer filter media. Finer filtration systems can be installed without the burden of extra maintenance. The pool water ends up clearer with less up keep.
The unit is supplied with both 2”/63mm quick connect unions making this unit ideal for new installations and retrofit market.
The MultiCyclone has recently been shown at various International shows and has received rave reviews:
International Recognition:
Awarded first prize in the sustainability category at the recent 2007 Piscina Barcelona International pool show.
Awarded the Internationally recognized Smart Water Mark.
Endorsed by the Save Water Alliance
Recognised by the European Commission of Enviroment as being fully consistent with the priorities set up at European level.
Features and Benefits:
Saves water through reducing backwashing ….. up to as much as 19,000 litres per year!! (This is based on a 20m3/hr pump and backwashing / rinsing for approx 3 ½ minutes twice a month and still taking into account that some backwashing may still be required depending upon the installation).
The MultiCyclone is ideal as a pre-filter and will extend the life of any existing filter. It works together with sand, diatomaceous earth or cartridge filters, fitting between the pump and the existing filter.
The MultiCyclone filters out up to 80% of the incoming sediment before entering the main filtration system. The end result is that the filter requires less cleaning, saves water, money and time.
Ideally suited for both new pool installations and the retro fit market for existing pools. Quick and easy to install.
A unique and innovative product allowing the installer to be able to offer their customer the latest in pre filtration technology.
Supplied with both 2” and 63mm quick connect unions, a 1” purge valve and a 1”/32mm adaptor to cater for most installations.
Has an operating range of 3m3/h to 30m3/h.
With more homes every month being put on water meters more savings can be realised for the home owner.
The 4 bar glass filled body is of a hydraulically efficient design ensuring maximum strength and durability resulting in years of trouble free operation.
No media is required.
No moving parts to go wrong.
The large UV treated, clear polycarbonate inspection bowl makes it easy for the operator to know when the unit needs emptying.
The multicyclone is perfectly suited when used in conjunction with pressure operated products such as gas heaters, electric heaters or heat pumps by taking the “work load” of the filter without affecting the flow rate of the installation. Unnecessary service calls are greatly reduced as a result of a “dirty” filter that was responsible for poor flow and a reduction in pressure within the system.
In salt water pools a large percentage of salt is lost through the backwashing process and with the growing popularity of salt water chlorinators in the market the need for constant topping up of salt is therefore greatly reduced.
2 year full product warranty against manufacturing defects.
On average only 15 litres of water is discharged to clean the MultiCyclone of sediment.
The discharge line can be either plumbed into the waste line of the filter or emptied into a domestic bucket and then simply emptied on the garden.
