Technical Features

High-Quality Activated Carbon Core: Utilizes premium activated carbon with a specific surface area of 900-1300m²/g and a particle size of 1-5mm, featuring a dense, interconnected pore structure that maximizes adsorption capacity. With an iodine value of ≥850mg/g, it efficiently captures organic pollutants, heavy metals, residual chlorine, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ensuring thorough purification.

Stable Operating Performance: Engineered to operate under a working pressure of 0.04MPa to 0.7MPa, an operating temperature of 4℃ to 50℃, and a filtration speed of 7-16m/h, with an empty bed contact time (EBCT) of 4-12 minutes. This ensures consistent performance in diverse environments, from residential kitchens to heavy-industry factories.

Efficient Backwashing & Regeneration: Equipped with an intelligent backwashing system that automatically removes surface impurities when activated carbon reaches saturation (indicated by effluent residual chlorine >0.1mg/L or persistent odor), restoring partial adsorption capacity. For long-term saturation, the activated carbon can be regenerated via high-temperature roasting or steam purification, allowing reuse 6-12 times, reducing operational costs and environmental impact.

User-Friendly & Space-Saving Design: Features a compact, modular design that fits easily in limited installation spaces. Optional intelligent functions include real-time purification monitoring, automatic backwashing scheduling, and mobile APP control, providing convenience and peace of mind. The filter operates at ≤38dB, ensuring silent operation without disrupting daily activities.

Rigorous Quality Assurance: All components are made of non-toxic, food-grade materials with complete batch traceability. The filter body is constructed from corrosion-resistant 304/316L stainless steel, FRP, or rubber-lined carbon steel, ensuring a service life of 10-16 years for the tank and 1-4 years for the activated carbon (depending on usage conditions).

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the service life of the activated carbon filter, and how do I know when to replace it?The activated carbon has a service life of 1-4 years (depending on pollutant concentration and usage scenario), while the filter tank can last 10-16 years. Key signs that replacement is needed include: persistent odor in filtered water or air, effluent residual chlorine exceeding 0.1mg/L, inlet-outlet pressure difference over 0.12MPa, or a drop in activated carbon iodine value below 550mg/g.

Can I install the activated carbon filter myself, or do I need a professional?Residential and small commercial models come with a detailed installation manual, allowing you to install them yourself by connecting water/air pipes and securing the filter body. For large industrial models, we recommend professional installation to ensure stable operation and optimal performance. We also provide online installation guidance and after-sales support if you encounter any issues.

What types of activated carbon filters do you offer, and how do I select the right one?We offer three main types of filters, each tailored to specific scenarios.
