Automatic equipments for water filtration
Every Aquator water cleaning & treating system is specially designed for a specific goal, depending on
the raw water quality, so that they could provide quality water in accordance with the
strictest requirements.
Aquator systems are designed, executed and installed in
accordance with the requirements of the European norms.
Post sale service is provided.
Automatic water filtration equipments can be classified into:
- Water treatment compact units;
- Containerized water purification units;
- metallic multimedia filters;
- metallic softeners.
Water treatment compact units
General information:
- designed to treat water from
unpolluted natural sources, with
a content of maximum 500 mg/l
suspensions;
- semi-automatic operation,
allowing shut-off/start-up according
to demands of treated water;
- ideal for water supply of small communities (villages, hotels, holiday parks, residential
areas, industry);
- flow rate: 5 m /h – 50.0 m /h.
Containerized water purification units
General information:
- designed to treat water from natural sources equipment
installed in a container, sized according to raw water
quality);
- ideal for water supply of small communities (villages,
residential areas, holiday parks, industry);
- flow rate: 5 mc /h – 60.0 mc/h.
Metallic Multimedia filters
Active carbon automatic filters:
- filter water through a layer of active carbon placed
over a sand layer;
- are designed to remove iron, organic matter and
residual chlorine from water;
- improve water color, taste and odor;
- the most important characteristics are: the contact time of water and the active
carbon, the height of the filtering layer.
Quartz sand filters:
- designed to filter solid suspensions that cause water turbidity: sand, sludge, rust.
- filtration through several layers of quartz sand of various grain size.
Single and Duplex metallic softeners
Description:
- designed to reduce water hardness by eliminating the calcium and
magnesium ions;
- operation based on the replacement of Ca and Mg ions with Na ions
and their reactivation with NaCl.
Gate valves:
- are special devices mounted on pipes, containers and
installations for fluids transport pipes
- are designed to close, distribute, control and
adjust their parameters.
Description:
The body and the bonnet of the gate valves are
made of ductile cast iron EN-GJS-400-18 according
to SR EN 1563 (GGG 40-DIN 1693) or grey cast iron EN-GJL-250 according to SR EN 1561.
The guide is secured through a system of lateral fins meant to distribute the burden equally and
to reduce the shutting off period and the risk of wearing out.
Reliable rubber coated seat, allows a perfect sealing. The sealing is realized in both ways.
The corrosion protection is realized by an epoxy powder layer - min. 250 µ.
- below ground assembling: rigid extension spindle and protection box;
- manhole assembling: handwheel.
When mounted on HDP pipes, the valves are equipped with
flanged adaptors.
Hydrants
Underground and above ground hydrants
are designed for connection to water
distribution networks of up to 10 bar pressure.
They are mounted vertically, with a closed obturator,
by a flanged fitting according to ISO 7005-1999.
Underground hydrants allow the connection of a portable
hydrant for firefighting.
Above ground hydrants are used for connecting firefighting
hoses or motor pumps, etc.
Types of hydrants:
The above ground as well as the underground hydrants are classified according to their nominal
diameter (DN 65, 80, 100), to the types of the sockets (A and B) and to the underground length
(1, 1.25, 1.50 m). The above ground hydrants may be shatterable and non-shatterable.
Accessories:
- flange duck foot (for the above ground and the
underground hydrants);
- protection box (for the underground hydrants).

resins reinforced with glass fiber) (ø 300 - ø 3000) through
continuous winding. The company is called Superlit Romet and
needed an investment of about 11 mil.€.
• We are honored to have established Romiya (a Joint Venture
between GRUP ROMET and MIYA)– part of Miya Group (Arison) –
