10x54 - Carbon Filter with Clack 1191 head In/Out (Empty Vessel)

10x54 Carbon Filter Vessel with Clack 1191 In/Out Head (Empty)

The 10x54 carbon filter vessel with Clack 1191 In/Out head is a robust, empty filtration tank assembly designed for a wide range of domestic, commercial, and light industrial water treatment applications. Commonly used for granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration, this system provides a simple, reliable solution where automatic regeneration is not required.

The Clack 1191 head is a straightforward manual in/out valve, ideal for downflow filtration or upflow pH correction systems. Its simplicity makes it highly reliable, easy to maintain, and cost-effective.

💧 Typical Applications

This empty vessel can be filled with a variety of filter media to suit your water treatment needs:

• Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
  Removes chlorine, chloramine, taste, odour, VOCs, and organic contaminants
• pH Neutralisation Media
  Ideal for acidic water correction in upflow configurations
• Deionisation (DI) or Softener Resin
  Suitable for specialist commercial or industrial use

🛠 Maintenance Notes

As this system uses a manual in/out head, routine maintenance such as periodic manual backwashing is required to:

• Prevent media compaction
• Avoid channelling
• Maintain optimal filtration performance

Unlike automatic Clack WS1 or metered control valves, the 1191 head offers a simple, low-maintenance solution where automation is not necessary.

✔ Why Choose This Vessel?

• Proven Clack reliability
• Flexible media options
• Ideal for carbon filtration and pH correction
• Cost-effective alternative to automatic control valves
• Suitable for potable water systems
