Silex Sand

Silex Sand is a high-grade silica-based filtration media widely used in water treatment plants, pressure sand filters, and multi-grade filtration systems. Known for its high purity, excellent hardness, and chemical inertness, it plays a crucial role in removing suspended solids, turbidity, and fine impurities from water.

This crystalline silica sand is resistant to acids, alkalis, and chemical reactions, ensuring long operational life and consistent filtration performance. Its uniform particle size distribution enhances filtration efficiency and reduces pressure drop and backwash frequency.

Silex Sand filter media is extensively used in industrial water treatment, municipal water purification systems, swimming pools, RO pretreatment units, and domestic filtration systems. It provides reliable performance, improved water clarity, and reduced maintenance costs.

Advantages:

• 1. Low acid solubility (< 0.5%) ensuring high chemical stability
• 2. Virtually free from fines, clay, and silt for superior filtration
• 3. Reduced backwash cycles saving water and operational time
• 4. Precisely washed, dried, and graded to meet industry standards
• 5. High purity silica content with excellent uniformity
• 6. Complies with ISI filtration media specifications
• 7. Uniformity coefficient < 1.4 ensuring efficient filter bed performance
• 8. Effective filtration range up to 10–15 microns (0.5–1.0 mm size)
