Sediment Filters vs Cartridge Filters: What's the Difference
Posted by David Cannon on 3rd Nov 2026
Suspended solids such as sand, silt, and rust can create significant challenges in commercial and industrial water treatment systems. These particles may accumulate in pipelines, foul heat exchangers, increase pressure drop, and affect the performance of downstream filtration equipment. Without effective particulate removal, facilities may face frequent maintenance, equipment downtime, and higher operating costs.
Selecting the right filtration solution, however, is not always simple. Although se
What Is a Bag Filter? Working Principle, Types and Applications
Posted by David Cannon on 2nd Nov 2026
Suspended solids, sediment, rust particles, and other debris in industrial water can clog equipment, foul downstream filtration systems, and interfere with treatment processes. Without adequate particulate filtration, these contaminants may increase maintenance requirements, reduce equipment efficiency, and affect process water quality.
A bag filter for water treatment helps address these challenges by capturing suspended particles as water passes through it. These filtration systems are used in
Carlon JL Series Water Meter Maintenance: How to Take Apart and Clean Your Meter
Posted by David Cannon on 30th Oct 2026
Is water still flowing through your Carlon meter, but the register has suddenly stopped counting? Debris inside the measuring chamber may be preventing the meter’s internal parts from moving.
Carlon JL and JLR series water meters can become fouled by sand, pipe scale, pipe joint compound, thread seal tape, and other material carried through the piping. In many cases, water continues passing through the meter even though it is no longer recording water usage.

Sand Filter vs Multimedia Filter in Water Treatment: Key Differences Explained
Posted by David Cannon on 22nd Oct 2026
Water treatment systems often face challenges such as fluctuating suspended solids levels particle accumulation, increasing pressure drop, and frequent backwashing requirements. Selecting the right filtration media is essential to maintaining consistent water quality and protecting downstream equipment.
Several filtration systems are used to address these challenges, with sand filters and multimedia filters being common choices for water treatment. But their performance differs based on media co
