IPW Industries Inc (011-55) 12x40 Coconut Carbon GAC 1 cubic foot (27.5 lbs)
12x40 Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon
Steam-activated coconut shell carbon delivers exceptional hardness and longevity
Superior Hardness
Coconut shell carbon outlasts bituminous and other carbon sources due to higher density and abrasion resistance
High Activity Level
Steam activation creates optimal pore structure for adsorbing chlorine, THMs, VOCs, and organic chemicals
Broad Spectrum Removal
Removes chlorine, chloramines, pesticides, herbicides, TCE, EDB, trihalomethanes, detergents, and chemical odors
12x40 Mesh Size
Balanced particle size for effective contact time without excessive pressure drop at 2-6 gpm per cubic foot
Operating parameters and physical properties
| Model Number | 011-55 |
| Volume | 1.0 cubic foot |
| Weight | 27.5 lbs |
| Mesh Size | 12x40 |
| Service Flow Rate | 2-6 gpm per cu ft |
| Freeboard Required | 20% minimum |
| Optimal pH Range | 6.5-7.5 |
| Carbon Source | Coconut Shell |
| Activation Method | Steam |
Fits standard GAC tanks and pressure vessels
This 1 cubic foot volume of 12x40 coconut carbon is designed for whole-house backwashing filters, commercial GAC vessels, and point-of-entry systems. Compatible with standard 9-inch and 10-inch diameter tanks that accommodate 1.0 cu ft media capacity. Commonly used in Structural, Clack, Fleck, and custom carbon tank systems. Ensure 20% freeboard above media bed for proper backwash expansion. For chloramine removal or high TDS applications, reduce service flow rate and increase empty bed contact time accordingly.
Backwash and replacement schedule
Backwash Cycle
Backwash at 12-15 gpm per sq ft of bed area to remove accumulated sediment and redistribute media bed
Chlorine Applications
Replace carbon for standard municipal chlorine removal depending on chlorine concentration and daily water usage
Taste & Odor
Extended service life for taste, odor, and organic chemical removal when chlorine levels are low
Chloramine Removal
More frequent replacement required for chloramine systems due to catalytic reaction and faster exhaustion rate
Premium Grade
Coconut shell delivers longer lifespan than coal-based carbons
Lab Verified
Manufactured by Carbon Activated Corp to NSF/ANSI standards
High Hardness
Resists attrition and maintains bed integrity during backwash cycles
Versatile Use
Residential, commercial, and industrial water treatment applications
