ZC30 | Zeoclere 30 Filter Media -per 20kg

Zeoclere is a specially selected hi-grade mineral for use in swimming pool filtration. Its structure was specially selected to ensure pool water quality and clarity.

This is in addition to stripping out high levels of ammonium brought into the pool by swimmers. It also removes heavy metals found in some water supplies. Zeoclere increases water clarity in some instances by up 60% compared to sand filtration. Four grades are available: 0.8-1.24mm (the standard grade), 1-2mm, 2-4mm and 0.5-1mm.

Zeoclere is from a family of over 54 different minerals found around the world. With over 30 years experience in pool filtration, Zeoclere is the only proven mineral for use in swimming pool pressure vessels. It has a purity of between 80-85% and is constant between these percentages. The material operates well in both small and large pressure vessels. Tests carried out using a 1-metre column with the flow in a constant backwash mode for 180 days x 24 hours, showed a clear-up rate is faster than that of silica sand and glass.

The average ammonia collection for this grade is 2.88g/litre. This may vary dependent on the flow rate. Other advantages of Zeoclere are wide temperature performance along with high removal efficiency including iron/zinc/lead/copper and silver removal. Because of the high reduction of ammonia removal, the use of chlorine is similarly reduced and on average is quoted that up to 40% savings have been achieved. Zeoclere has a far greater (400%) surface area than silica sand or glass media. Therefore, backwashing (where appropriate) can be dramatically reduced, saving many thousands of litres of heated water and chemicals going to waste. When used in a commercial pool environment, sewage clean-up costs are also reduced.

Advantages:
• Under correct conditions, the use of Zeoclere will deliver multiple benefits: a reduction in the amount of chemical use, water and power savings and less maintenance achieve the following:
• High ammonia removal (average 2.8gm/lt) dependent on the flow rate
• Ion removal efficiency is high having a far greater surface area than both sand and glass
• Longevity
• Turbidity is shown to be up to a 60% improvement than accepted silica sand
• No health hazards
• Zeoclere has a far greater (400%) surface area than silica sand or glass, therefore, backwashing, where appropriate, can be dramatically reduced
• Because of the high level of ammonia removal, the use of chlorine is reduced and, on average, up to 40% savings are shown to have been achieved.
