HT89BIF
Reduce Iron, Manganese and Sulphur Without Chemicals
The BIF uses a two-tank design to reduce stubborn iron, manganese and sulfur without chemicals. The first tank contains a pocket of compressed air that aids in the precipitation of iron into solid form. The second tank reduces the solidified iron as it passes through the media bed. The media acts as a catalyst in the reaction between iron and oxygen that also causes the iron to precipitate into a solid.
Hydrotech branded neoprene pressure tank jackets are optional.
Key Features
Natural Oxidation: Reduces iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) without chemicals, air pumps or a venturi.
High Flow Rates: For large residential and commercial applications.
Efficient Regeneration: The BIF regenerates less frequently and uses up to 50% less water than single-tank iron filters. Periodic automatic regeneration replenishes the supply of oxygen and removes iron from the media bed.

At stated service flow rates the pressure drop through these devices will not exceed 15 PSIG.
Not intended for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Peak flow rates are intended for intermittent use only (10 minutes or less) and are for residential applications only. Do not use peak flow rate for commercial applications or for a continuous rate when treated water supplies are geothermal heat pump, swimming pool, etc. For satisfactory operation, the pumping rate of the well system must equal or exceed indicated backwash flow rate.
