ARKA F40-2 manufacturer product reference

Product overview

ARKA F40-2 1000 mm Two-Vessel Sand Media Filter System is offered for application-based water-system selection in Sabah. Water passes through a selected media bed that retains suspended matter. Reverse-flow backwashing expands and cleans the bed, with waste discharged through the backwash valve. Match the model to the required water quality, pipe connections, operating pressure and flow. SWFI can review the stated model and site requirements for quotation; the final supplied configuration is subject to confirmation.
