BIG industrial systems.
Multi-cartridge housings, high-flow iA P BIG cartridges and parallel connections for increased capacity.
Higher flow rates. The modular BIG solution.
For industry, water supply and tertiary treatment, we design multi-filter housings with iA P BIG cartridges. Capacity is adjusted through cartridge number and length, and by connecting housings in parallel.
TECHNOLOGYinstrAction
One housing is the starting point. Additional housings increase flow.
Up to 28 m³/h per housing with 20 iA 40 P BIG cartridges at 200 BV/h. Total flow has no predefined upper limit. Filter assemblies are connected in parallel for higher water flow; their number and design are tailored to each project's requirements and hydraulic conditions.
Housing adaptation. The base plate is adapted to the larger diameter of BIG cartridges.
Easier maintenance. Length is also selected with replacement in mind: a wet 40-inch cartridge is heavier, so a 30-inch version may be more practical.
Dedicated iA P media capture short- and long-chain PFAS from suitably pretreated water.
Multiple cartridges per housing and multiple parallel housings allow capacity to match the design flow.
The design includes maintenance access and filter replacement at least annually, or sooner if capacity is reached.
Choose an assembly. Connect multiple units.
The table shows the flow through one housing at 200 BV/h. This is not a limit for the complete system: higher flows are achieved with multiple housings connected in parallel.
| Filters per housing | iA 20 P BIG | iA 30 P BIG | iA 40 P BIG |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 filter | 0.7 m³/h | 1.0 m³/h | 1.4 m³/h |
| 3 filters | 2.1 m³/h | 3.0 m³/h | 4.2 m³/h |
| 6 filters | 4.1 m³/h | 6.0 m³/h | 8.4 m³/h |
| 20 filters | 14 m³/h | 20 m³/h | 28 m³/h |
Flow rates apply to the stated number of filters in each housing.
Flow relative to media volume.
BV is the filter media volume. At 200 BV/h, the volume of water passing through each hour equals 200 times the media volume.
For industrial water treatment with instrAction, the recommended range is 100–250 BV/h, as other substances present affect performance. The operating value is confirmed by laboratory testing.
A system that grows with your needs.
With parallel connections, housing flows add together. As an indicative calculation at 200 BV/h, six housings with 20 iA 30 P BIG cartridges each provide a total of 120 m³/h.
This is a sizing example, not a universal configuration. Stages, hydraulics, pretreatment and replacements are determined for the actual water and outlet requirements.
Performance in water.
Advantages in operation.
Selective PFAS removal
Dedicated binding sites for capturing short- and long-chain PFAS. Performance is verified on the water to be treated.
How selectivity worksLower costs in the illustrated scenario
The existing comparative calculation shows a lower total cost for iA than for GAC and IEX. It covers investment and ten years of operation; actual costs depend on the project.
Compare CAPEX and OPEXEasier handling during replacement
Replaceable cartridges enable planned maintenance. We combine analysis, replacements and filter collection into comprehensive client support.
Filter cartridges and industrial systemsCollection and incineration of spent filters
We arrange collection of spent filters containing captured PFAS and their destruction by high-temperature incineration at an authorised facility, under conditions suitable for PFAS destruction.
