Composite water filter column is no stranger to us in today's life. Disk filter benefits domains living, production, preparation, cleaning. Moreover, let's find out the basic structure of a complete Composite water filter column, which components are included, and how they are common through this article.
Composite prefilter system – automatic control valve. Also, the structure of the finished composite column of disk filter consists of the following parts:
The main component of the Composite material is a combination of the inner "base material" layer and the outer "reinforcement material" layer. In disk filter specifically the base material here is plastic (Polymer, PE, PVC ...) material.
Moreover, the reinforcement materials are glass fiber, carbon fiber, organic fiber, etc., depending on the characteristics and purposes of use. Furthermore, filter columns common in the water purification industry are made of PVC and reinforced glass fibers.
The shape of the filter column is cylindrical, usually light blue, dark blue, or black. The size of the filter column is very diverse, in household water filtration; the Composite filter column size 1054 is most common. We can learn more about composite materials and how to read the parameters of disk filter columns here.
The function of the valve is common to rinse the filter column when newly installed, backwash to clean the filter material. In terms of function, valves come into types: in-out valve, 3-way valve, 5-way valve, butterfly valve.
In terms of operation, the control comes into two types: automatic and semi-automatic and the functions are the same, the automatic valve must use a control cabinet. Moreover, the in-out valve is the most basic type of valve, connected manually, with only 2 inlets and outlets.
Disk filter here is common to create a discharge line, must be connected manually. Today, the In-out valve is almost not common because of its inconvenience and complexity in operation. Moreover, the way valve is here. It includes 3 water lines: inlet water, clean water, and wastewater.
Controlled by a manual or automatic lever for auto valve, rinsing time is usually 10-30 minutes (for family-scale filter columns). This is the most widely common valve type today. A 5-way valve is like a 3-way valve, but with the additional function of suction and discharge of reconstituted solution. And, often common in water softening filters columns, ion exchange, DI.
Butterfly valves are common in very large capacity filter columns in disk filters. These are often common in industrial systems.
The selection of the valve depends on your requirement. Generally, we select the number of valves according to our industrial needs.
Any Composite water filter column has a bottom layer consisting of supporting gravel and quartz sand, the rest is a specialized water filter material for each different function and water source. Some popular water filter materials are good to mention. These include
In a family-scale disk filter column (1054) in addition to the sand and gravel layer, we often add 2 layers of specialized water filter materials. Also, the thicker the layer of material, the longer the contact time for the material to treat the water, thus providing higher efficiency. The column has a 1-layer specialized water filter.

The piping system inside the Composite water filter column includes a clean water pipe (with a length equal to the height of the column) responsible for conducting water after passing through the layers of material out of the column. More importantly, the upper and lower filters help prevent material from spilling inside the clean water pipe
Generation systems using industry composite filtration column (disk filter). In addition, usually the larger the filter column, the larger the pipe cross-section common will be. When assembling external pipes, pay attention to use joints to facilitate repair of materials later.
The filter core structure of a basic direct-drinking water purifier consists of 3 main parts: the coarse filter core system (pre-filter core), the fine filter core/membrane system (the main core of the machine). And the functional core system. capacity, core mineral supplement.
The Disk filter element is mostly installed right after the core/fine filter of the machine (after the RO membrane, UF, Aragon core ...). The main use of the disk filter core is to taste the water, making it easier to drink, because most filtered water after fine filtration often has a horizontal taste.
The composition of the core T33 is quite diverse, mostly from activated carbon for flavoring, with added minerals, some cores are also made from small-grained mineral rocks. Lastly, in the multi-core system, the function is always having T33 cores.
The main function of the Mineral filter core is to add minerals to the output water. The composition of the Mineral supplement core is ceramic balls impregnated with minerals, in some places called medical stones.
The minerals in the disk filter are usually Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium..., ceramic particles are usually 0.5~1.5cm in diameter, the shape is usually round or polygonal (looks like stones). Above all, water purifiers that use mineral cores often have a very specific taste.
For low pH water sources, a pH lift core is indispensable. As the name suggests, the main use of the core is to raise the pH of the water.
