TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
FR-E
Our FR-E series, is a break through in technology granting an interesting option to our consolidated and outstanding FR-N series. Because of our met-blown fabrication
and procedure, these FR-E series grant a true comprise for those applications that require a just Price/Quality performance ratio.
During the manufacturing phase, and without the essence of the internal core, these cartridges grant a perfect and compact resistance of filtration.
Although an economical comprise, the soul element of these cartridge allow an exceptional performance when compared to the standard abundance supplied by
competitors:
• Consistency
• Faithful retention of contaminates
• Well meaning to compression
• Contained pressure loss
Thanks to the method of fabrication and experience gained with our exceptional FRN series, this series offer a mere absence of particle media loss.
Vast chemical compatibility because made only with 100% pure polypropylene, insuring nearly infinite applications
Laboratory tests show that this series are guaranteed to give at least 80% efficiency of stated particle size confirming its perfect price/quality ratio.

Note (1): in order to use silica crystals, the following characteristics are required:
- minimum water hardness of 5°Fr.
- minimum 80 mg/l TDS (total dissolved solids)
- back wash flow rate between 17 and 24 m3/h
Note (2): high iron concentration inside the water may cause unpleasant taste and smell. In this case it’s addvisable
to use an active carbon cartridge, series GAC-BIG-CC.
