 Fiberglass
Pressure Adsorbers: FRP Series
Resistant
to many chemicals, GENERAL CARBON FRP Series Liquid Phase Adsorbers are
ideal where corrosion is a primary concern. Rated for 150 PSI, these units
can be used in high pressure applications where there is NO chance of
a vacuum condition. The Fiberglass Pressure Adsorbers FRP Series tanks
come In many sizes to handle a full range of liquid flows. Made with an
internal bladder wrapped in fiberglass, these filament wound vessels are
ideal for filtration using activated carbon, resins or other filter media.
Food grade internals are standard along with a wide selection of inlet/outlet
sizes. Easy use automatic valves are available for unattended operator.

Expansion for Backwash.
Installation & Start Up
FRP Series adsorbers are shipped empty along with the required carbon.
The adsorber should be connected and all fittings pressure tested for
leaks before the carbon is installed through the top access hole. A
vacuum relief device is advised to prevent tank damage. After the carbon
has been loaded, the unit should be filled with dean water through the
bottom collector, and allowed to degas for 8-12 hours if possible. Backwashing
the carbon is recommended to remove carbon fines that can cause excessive
pressure drop through the unit.
Maintenance
The only maintenance that FRP Series adsorbers require is the testing
of effluent quality, and the checking of the operating pressure of the
system. Monitoring the contaminant level into the last unit in a series
arrangement is the recommended safeguard against having break-through
in 24" through 48" Diameter the final outflow.
Servicing
FRP Tanks once an adsorber's carbon is saturated by contaminants, the
unit should be taken off line and fresh carbon installed. To purchase
replacement carbon or to arrange for a carbon change out, please contact
our office. When preparing the unit to be serviced, as much water as
possible should be drained from the vessel.
Disposal
Dispose of the spent carbon in accordance with Federal, State and Local
regulations.
WARNING!
Wet activated carbon removes oxygen from air causing a severe hazard
to workers inside carbon vessels. Confined space / low oxygen procedures
should be put in place before any entry is made. Such procedures should
comply with all applicable local, state and federal guidelines.
