Industrial · Face-Piped Sand Filter
High-Capacity Pre-Treatment with the Face-Piped Sand Filter System
The Face-Piped Sand Filter System is a high hourly capacity industrial filtration system that holds back the suspended solids, turbidity and particles in water by passing it through a sand and anthracite media bed. With the pipework running outside the tank, the valves are easy to reach and maintenance is straightforward.
- Capacity
- 10 Tonnes/Hour
- Piping
- Face-Piped (PVC-U)
- Function
- Mechanical Filtration
01Problem & Solution
Turbid, Sediment-Laden Water Wears the System Down
Problem
Suspended Solids and Turbidity
On high-flow industrial lines, if the suspended solids, turbidity and particles in the water do not pass through pre-treatment, they block the membrane, softening and process equipment and cost efficiency.
Solution
High-Capacity Media Filtration
The Face-Piped Sand Filter System holds back suspended solids and turbidity with its sand and anthracite media bed. Time-controlled backwashing cleans the media automatically and produces clear water ready for treatment.
02Key Features
High Capacity, Easy Maintenance
The Face-Piped Sand Filter System is built with a durable, service-friendly structure on an industrial scale.
The Advantage of Face Piping
The PVC-U pipes run outside the tank; valves and gate valves are easy to reach, so maintenance and repairs are quicker.
10 Tonnes/Hour Capacity
Its high hourly flow makes it ideal for industrial plants with large pipe diameters.
Sand and Anthracite Media
Layers of anthracite and quartz sand hold back suspended solids and particles effectively.
Time-Controlled Backwashing
The media is cleaned by automatic backwashing to a set programme, so efficiency is maintained for a long time.
Electrically Actuated Valves
Cast butterfly valves manage the direction of flow safely and automatically.
Octopus Diffuser Underdrain
The underdrain distributes water evenly across the media and gives efficient filtration.
03Technical Specifications
System Details
| Feature | Value | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Hourly Capacity | 10 Tonnes/Hour | How much water passes through per unit of time. A low flow rate drops the pressure when more than one tap is open. |
| Tank Size | 765 × 2150 mm -FRP – Filter 3072 | |
| Connection Diameter | DN50 | The pipe connection size. It has to match the diameter in your plumbing. |
| Media | Anthracite 125 L + Sand 475 kg | The treatment media inside the vessel. It is renewed periodically. |
| Control | Time-Controlled Backwashing | How the unit is managed. Automatic control needs no daily attention. |
| Max Pressure | 6 bar | |
| Weight | 700 kg | Product weight. For wall mounting, the supporting surface is chosen accordingly. |
| Dimensions | 765 × 765 × 2150 cm | The outer dimensions of the unit. The cabinet or plant room has to be wider than this. |
04Applications
Where Is It Used?
The Face-Piped Sand Filter System is used on high-flow industrial pre-filtration lines.
- Factories & Production Plants
- Pre-Treatment for RO & Softening
- Well Water Lines
- Hotels & Large Buildings
- Process Water Pre-Filtration
- Turbid & Sediment-Laden Sources
- Organised Industrial Zones
- Hospitals & Institutions
05How It Works
How Does the Face-Piped Sand Filter System Work?
-
Water Enters the Tank
Raw water passes through the face pipework and is directed onto the sand and anthracite media bed inside the tank.
-
Filtered Through the Media
As the water passes through the anthracite and sand layers, suspended solids and particles are held in the media.
-
Clear Water Outlet
Clear water passing through the underdrain diffuser is delivered to the next treatment stage or to use.
-
Time-Controlled Backwashing
When the media fills, the valves operate automatically; water is fed in the reverse direction and the dirt collected is sent to drain.
-
It Returns to Service
When the wash is complete the system returns automatically to the filtration position and operation continues.
06Making the Right Choice
What Decides the Right System
When choosing the Face-Piped Sand Filter System, the flow, water quality and installation must be assessed correctly.
Water Flow Rate
The hourly water demand determines the tank size and the amount of media needed; the capacity must be calculated correctly.
Suspended Solids & Turbidity
The degree of turbidity and suspended solids in the water affects the choice of media and the backwash frequency.
Valve Type
The choice between electrically and pneumatically actuated valves is made according to the plant’s infrastructure.
Installation Space
Enough space for the tank, the drain line and the pipework should be planned in advance.
07Maintenance and Use
Notes That Keep It Performing
- The backwash frequency should be set according to the turbidity and suspended solids load of the water; the programme should be updated when needed.
- Face piping makes the valves easy to reach; valves and seals should be checked periodically.
- The media should be renewed when it wears over time; efficiency should be monitored by following the inlet-outlet pressure difference.
- The Face-Piped Sand Filter System does not remove limescale or salts; softening is needed for hardness and a reverse osmosis stage for dissolved substances.
08Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions
What does the Face-Piped Sand Filter System do?
It is a high-capacity industrial pre-filtration system that holds back the suspended solids, turbidity and particles in water with sand and anthracite media. It produces clear water by cleaning the media automatically with time-controlled backwashing.
What does “face-piped” mean?
It describes a build in which the pipework runs outside the tank, along its face. That makes the valves, pipes and gate valves easy to reach, so maintenance and repairs are quicker.
How does it differ from a softening system?
A sand filter carries out mechanical filtration; it holds suspended solids and turbidity. A softening system exchanges ions with resin and removes hardness (limescale). The two are usually installed in series: sand filter first, then softening.
What is its capacity?
This system works at an hourly capacity of 10 tonnes/hour; the tank is 765 × 2150 mm, the connection DN50 and the maximum working pressure 6 bar. The figures are engineered to the water demand of the plant.
Does it make the water drinkable?
Not on its own. It only removes coarse dirt (suspended solids, turbidity); it does not remove dissolved salts, limescale, chlorine or microorganisms. Drinkable water calls for carbon, softening and reverse osmosis stages.

Installation and commissioning
Installation is a service · plumbing is the customer’s responsibilityThe system is delivered ready to install; it only needs to be connected to the inlet and outlet lines. If valve setup is required, we provide free support over a video call. Installation and commissioning fall under our service work and are subject to a service fee. Plumbing labour and any pipes, valves and fittings are not included in the price; these items are the customer’s responsibility.
Warranty
2 years · manufacturerThe system is covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty. During the warranty period, labour and parts are free for faults arising from manufacture or installation. Consumables such as filters, membranes and resin are outside warranty cover — they are replaced when their service life ends; they do not fail.
Site Survey
Free when the system is bought from usThe site survey is free when the system is purchased from us. A survey fee of ₺2,000 applies if you request the survey and measurement only.
Withdrawal and returns
Distance sales agreementThe right of withdrawal and the return terms are set out in detail in the distance sales agreement. Systems that have been installed and commissioned, and made-to-order products, are outside its scope.
