PP Filter Nozzle
A PP filter nozzle (Polypropylene filter nozzle) is a precision-molded component used in water treatment, sand filters, softeners, and demineralization (DM) plants to retain media (like sand, gravel, or ion-exchange resin) while allowing treated water or backwash air to pass through evenly.
Key Specifications & Features
- Material: Virgin or engineering-grade Polypropylene (PP), often UV-stabilized, providing high resistance to acids, alkalis, and corrosion.
- Slot Sizes: Typically ranges from 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm (or up to 2 mm depending on the model) to block resin beads and sand grains while minimizing pressure drop.
- Thread & Stem Sizes: Common thread connections include 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch (0.75 inch), 1 inch, 2 inches, and M20–M25, M30 with short or long stems (ranging from 14 mm to 450 mm).
- Flow Rates: Varies by design, generally spanning from 100 LPH to 2,000+ LPH (or up to 5 m³/hr) per nozzle.
- Design Types: Available in umbrella type, mushroom/cylinder shape, long/short thread, and side-flow variants.
- Common Applications
- Gravity Sand Filters & Rapid Sand Filters
- Water Softeners & Demineralization (DM) Plants
- Activated Carbon & Iron Removal Filters
- Ion Exchange Resin Beds & Swimming Pool Filtration
