Puretec SFS4000 Sediment Filtration System
The Puretec SFS4000 Sediment Filtration System is a high-performance, automatic backwashing water filtration solution designed to reduce sediment, dirt, rust, silt, sand and other suspended particles from your water supply.
Ideal for high-flow applications, the SFS4000 helps protect household and commercial plumbing systems by preventing sludge and sediment build-up in pipework, hot water systems, fixtures and connected appliances.
Featuring advanced filtration technology, the SFS4000 filters particulate down to 3 microns, providing reliable sediment reduction for water supplies with high levels of suspended solids.
Automatic Backwashing – Minimal Maintenance
Unlike conventional sediment filtration systems that require frequent cartridge replacement, the Puretec SFS4000 features an automatic backwashing system that periodically cleans its graded filter media bed.
Its fully automatic E1-matic control valve delivers dependable operation while helping minimise unnecessary energy and water consumption.
The intelligent controller features a solid-state microprocessor, easy-access front panel settings and non-volatile memory to retain system configuration and operating data.
Designed for convenience, the SFS4000 provides effective sediment filtration with minimal ongoing maintenance.
