Introduction
AmeriWater has been a leader in manufacturing water treatment equipment since 1977, specializing in high efficiency sand filters for cooling water since 1991. Their technology excels in removing small micron particulates, providing superior filtration for industrial and medical industries.

Specifications and Features
AmeriWater's high efficiency sand filters are designed to remove particles as small as 0.25 to 0.5 microns, significantly improving cooling water cleanliness. These filters use ultrafine sand and a crossflow action to enhance filtration efficiency and reduce maintenance needs. The filters are available in sizes ranging from 24 GPM to 600 GPM, with backwash storage tanks from 130 to 1,000 gallons.

Technological Advantages
Compared to older multimedia filters, which filter down to 10 microns, AmeriWater's filters are more effective at removing particles in the 0.5 to 5 micron range. This results in cleaner heat transfer surfaces, improved microbial treatment, reduced corrosion, and energy savings. The filters require less space and backwash water, offering a quick return on investment.

Benefits

• Cleaner cooling water and heat transfer surfaces
• Improved microbial treatment and reduced risk of Legionnaires’ disease
• Lower corrosion rates and maintenance costs
• Energy savings and longer equipment life
• Reduced capital, installation, and operating costs

Construction and Design
The filters feature 304 stainless steel vessels, copper or PVC manifolds, and individually motor-controlled bronze ball valves. They include a centrifugal pump with a TEFC motor, a PLC control package, and a UL approved control panel. The design allows for field switchable backwash sources and improved backwash efficiency.

Conclusion
AmeriWater's high efficiency sand filters represent the pinnacle of cooling water filtration technology, offering significant improvements in water cleanliness, system efficiency, and operational cost savings.
