FILTER MATERIAL ECOMIX A 12l

Ecomix A is a multi-component ion exchange resin for problematic water with a moderate content of organic matter.
Eliminates plaque on plumbing and scale on heating elements, removes the metallic taste of the water as well as eliminates the unpleasant smell of the water.

Available on back-order

Filter material Ecomix A is a very efficient filter material.

Ecomix A:

get rid of the scale on plumbing and heating elements;
removes the metallic taste of the water;
reduces the water color and odor.

Main advantages:

Solving the main water problem in one filter instead of 2-3;
Stable purified water quality throughout the service life;
Low salt consumption for regeneration.

Where is it used?

Ecosoft A filter material is used in household and industrial Ecosoft filters (type FK). Ecomix is placed in the filter as a mixture and is divided into five layers during the first regeneration. Normal tablet salt is used for regeneration.

Filtration systems with Ecomix A are widely used both for domestic purposes and in the industry.

5 active components of the Ecomix filter material:

1. Inert material – improves backwashing.

2. FerroSorb sorbent reduces iron and manganese content.

The iron content reduction mechanism consists of adsorption (fixation) on the surface of the material, oxidation, active layer formation and autocatalytic oxidation. As a result the content of all the main forms of iron (dissolved, oxidized, organic and colloidal) is reduced.

The best iron and manganese removal efficiency is achieved by applying the well water directly to the Ecomix material.

3. HumiSorb sorbent is designed to reduce permanganate oxidation and the water color.

Organic compounds are separated by the mechanism of electrostatic hydrophobic interaction.

4. Ion exchange resin (cation exchange agent) – softens the water.

In the process of filtering the water through a cation exchange the hardness ions Ca2+ and Mg2+ are replaced by Na+ ions. During regeneration calcium and magnesium ions are flushed down the drain and the cation exchanger is saturated with sodium ions from the brine.

5. Quartz sand is used to evenly distribute the water flow through the filter during its washing.

Regeneration of the Ecomix filter material:

During the operation filter material is periodically regenerated with a saline solution like ordinary ion exchange resins.

During the brine regeneration stage calcium and magnesium ions are replaced by sodium ions.
Iron and manganese compounds are removed by surface friction of the FerroSorb grains during backwashing.
HumiSorb’s reversible sorption mechanism of organic compounds ensures efficient regeneration.
