Micron Side Mount Deep Bed Filters
Manufactured from the highest grade of non corrosive materials and employing the latest in fibreglass winding technology, Micron fibreglass filters are designed and built for many years of trouble free operation.
-
Setting new global benchmarks in durability, versatility, reliability and longevity, Waterco’s Micron fibreglass filters are the preferred choice for commercial and industrial operations that demand superior water quality.
- Seamless one-piece vessel
- Strict quality control
- Proprietary construction
- High corrosion resistance
-
-
- Inflow diffuser for even distribution of water flow across the filter bed.
- Elliptical positive sealing manways.
- Pressure gauge.
- Six position Multiport valve with sight glass and quick connect half unions.
- UV and corrosion resistant fibreglass wound tank.
- Hydraulically balanced laterals to maximise water flow and filtration.
- Manual drain.
- Large filter base for stable floor mounting.
-
Internal plumbing & laterals
Fibreglass filter vessels are shipped complete - no field installation of internal plumbing is required. All internal plumbing is structurally supported to eliminate potential transit damage.
-
Hydraulically balanced laterals
Micron vertical commercial filters are equipped with “Fish tail” or “Fish-bone” hydraulically balanced laterals, to improve its filtration and backwashing hydraulic efficiency
-
Conventional laterals are not suitable for large-scale commercial filters as “dead legs” exist between the laterals, which compromises water flow through the filter bed. Waterco’s unique “fish tail” or “fish bone” lateral configuration eliminates this problem by providing effective coverage of the filter bed and balanced water flow.
-
Enhanced deep filter bed filtration and increased dirt capacity. The filter’s 1000mm media bed ensures that finer dirt particles and colloidal substances are retained to a far greater level than a filter with a shallower bed depth.
The filter's greater bed depth permits efficient use of mixed bed filter media and water treatment media such as granular activated carbon.
- Fibreglass wound tank, UV and Corrosion Resistant.
- Hydraulically balanced laterals to maximise water flow and filtration.
- Optional six position Multiport valve with sight glass and quick connect half unions.

- Pressure rated at 250 kPa (36 psi), 400 kPa (58 psi), 600 kPa (87psi) and up to 800 kPa (116 psi)
- Maximum working temperature of 50°C (122°F)
FAQ
- What is the Micron Side Mount Deep Bed Filter by Waterco?
The Micron Side Mount Deep Bed Filter is a water filtration system designed for various applications, featuring a side-mounted configuration for more even distribution than a top mounted filter and ease of installation and maintenance.
- Where can I use the Micron Side Mount Media Filer?
The filter is suitable for applications such as swimming pools, water features, aquaculture/ life support systems and industrial processes, offering effective water filtration.
- What are the key features of the Micron Side Mount Deep Bed Media Filters?
This filter typically features a durable tank construction, patented boring for reliable inlet/outlet flange sealing, positive sealing top access way, unique distribution and lateral collector system for even flow which ensures effective filtration and backwashing, lateral access hole for maintenance, air relieve valves and dedicated lifting points. Optional heavy duty laterals are also available for industrial or air scour applications.
- What maintenance is required for the Micron Side Mount Deep Bed Media Filter?
ReRegular maintenance includes backwashing the filter meida, inspecting valves and connections, and ensuring that the filter is operating within specified parameters. Refer to the user manual for comprehenive maintenance guidelines.
