Pages 4-5 HRL Series Permanent MediaCommercial Swimming Pool FiltersThe HRL Hi-Rate Permanent Media Swimming Pool Filters have been refined and tested with thousands of systems successfully installed and operating throughout the world. These filters are designed for and installed in large commercial aquatic centers, public swimming pools and commercial water parks.
Page 3 HRG Series Permanent MediaCommercial Swimming Pool FiltersThe HRG Series Hi-Rate Permanent Media Swimming Pool Filters are smaller versions of our traditional HRL Series Hi-Rate Permanent Media Swimming Pool Filters. These filters are ideally suited for use in small commercial swimming pools such as those often found in hotels or health clubs. They are also a popular choice for use with cooling towers and other industrial applications.
Pages 10-11 High Rate Filter Specifications
Pages 8-9 HRL2C Series Permanent MediaCommercial Swimming Pool FiltersThe HRL2C Series Hi-Rate Permanent Media swimming pool filters apply the same design concept as that of the traditional HRL Series Filters. However, the HRL2C Series filters are ideally suited for use wherever space is at a premium. Each HRL2C filter contains two complete filter cells in a single vessel, enabling each HRL2C filter to process twice the volume of a conventional filter of the same diameter.

Engineering Notes
Head loss through all Hi-Rate Permanent Media Filters is three (3) psi on startup. The fitler should be backwashed when a 15 psi differential is indicated on the influent and effluent pressure gauges.
When sizing the main recirculating pump for the filters, calculate head loss for the maximum dirt load at 15 to 20 psi through the filter and face piping.
High-Rate Filter Specifications
.04 Each filter tank shall be equipped with replaceable sacrificial anodes that protect the tank from corrosion caused by electrolysis.
.05 HRG filter tank(s) shall be supported by strap legs up to and including 42” (inches). HRL filter tank(s) shall be supported by angle iron legs up to and including 120” (inches).
.05 (option) Adjustable jack legs are available on all filter sizes.
.06 HRL2C series filters include an inner separating partition between cells which shall be no less than ________” (inch(es)) thick. Each cell shall be equipped with the necessary connections for the influent and effluent piping.
Interior Lining:.01 All interior, wetted surfaces of the filter tank(s) and all penetrations shall be degreased and sandblasted prior to lining installation.
.02 Tank lining shall be an epoxy-type coating, and shall be applied to all wetted surfaces of the tank and tank penetrations in two successive coats. Twelve hours of curing time shall be allowed between coats, and the total thickness shall be 8 to 12 mils.
.03 The finished lining shall be smooth, dust free, and completely nontoxic. The lining shall be visually examined and spark tested for pinholes.
Exterior Coating:.01 The filter shall be painted with one (1) coat of zinc oxide primer after the trial assembly by the original equipment manufacturer.
Internal Distribution System:.01 Filter internal equipment shall include an upper distribution assembly and a lower collection system, hydraulically balanced to prevent turbulence and/or displacement of the media during filtration. Standard pipe arrangement or internal valving systems will not be acceptable.
.02 The upper distribution system shall include hydraulic injection molded ABS plastic distribution lenses located uniformly over the filter bed. They shall be joined to the influent connection by means of a schedule 80 PVC pipe header.
.03 The lower collection system shall consist of a schedule 80 PVC pipe header and cycolac laterals designed to retain the filter media with minimum head loss. The internal distribution system shall be designed to promote media bed circulation during backwash.
Face Piping with Valves:.01 The High-Rate Sand Filter(s) shall be provided with all the necessary face piping and valves which shall be pre-assembled by the original equipment manufacturer. The face piping shall consist of flanged standard cast iron fittings and a sight glass.

Automatic Backwash Systems
It is possible to have a fully automated, microprocessor-controlled system installed on any Eureka Hi-Rate Sand Filter. The programmable system will switch your Hi-Rate Sand Filter from filter mode, to backwash mode, and return it to filter mode without supervision.
Backwashing reverses the normal flow of water within the filter. The agitation within the filter during the backwash cycle releases the trapped
particles, which are then flushed from the filter. Once the recommended backwash cycle is complete, the filter can immediately be returned to service. The total time devoted to backwashing the filter is usually only about four minutes.
Reduce your long-term labor costs by installing a Eureka HRL Series Sand Filter. No labor intensive procedures between cleaning cycles are required. Contact us at 1-800-472-1712 today!
