Provectr Plus Specifications
-How the Provectr Plus Works-
The Provectr Plus requires no chemicals for its operation. It consists of two components: (1) AP tank with
air compressor and (2) filter tank. The first item serves to oxidize and precipitate iron and sulfur so that the
filter can later remove them. The water flows down through the mineral bed of the filter and out the service
lines. The collected precipitates must be regularly removed from the filter by reversing the flow of water
through the filter running to drain. Called “backwashing” and lasting 10 minutes, the process expands the
mineral freeing the iron, sulfur, manganese and turbidity, which are washed out of the filter to the drain. It
is important that the correct amount of water is available for the Backwash Cycle. Check pumping capacity
to be certain water is available in sufficient volume to adequately backwash the equipment at the specified
rate.
