Katalox Light - KL-10 - KL for Iron, Hydrogen Sulfide and Manganese Removal 1 CF (25 Liters)
Katalox Light KL-10 Filtration Media
German-engineered MnO2-coated media for iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide removal. 1 cubic foot (25 liters) delivering 3-micron filtration with superior surface area and extended service life.
Advanced MnO2 Coating on ZEOSORB Substrate
Manganese Dioxide Coating
Proprietary MnO2 layer engineered onto ZEOSORB substrate provides catalytic oxidation of iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide at contact. Superior to sand, BIRM, or traditional Greensand media.
Lightweight Performance
High surface area per cubic foot without excessive weight. Lower backwash requirements and reduced system stress compared to Manganese Greensand or Greensand Plus.
3 Micron Filtration
Fine particle removal down to 3 microns. Handles sediment, precipitated metals, and particulate matter while maintaining consistent flow and minimal pressure drop.
Heavy Metal Reduction
Effective reduction of arsenic, zinc, copper, lead, radium, uranium, and other radionuclides. Broad-spectrum performance for residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal applications.
Extended Service Life
Durable coating resists degradation. Longer operational cycles between media replacement compared to conventional iron and manganese media. No continuous chemical regeneration required for most applications.
System Integration
The Katalox Light KL-10 is supplied as 1 cubic foot (25 liters) of loose media. Compatible with standard mineral tank systems using upflow or downflow configurations. Suitable for backwashing filter vessels in residential, commercial, and light industrial iron and manganese removal applications. Integrates with automatic control valves from Fleck, Clack, Autotrol, and other manufacturers. Review your system's media capacity and backwash rate requirements before ordering.
Backwash and Replacement Schedule
Backwash Cycle
Backwash frequency depends on iron, manganese, and sediment loading. Higher contaminant levels require more frequent backwashing to clear precipitated metals and maintain flow rate.
Media Replacement
Replace Katalox Light media when filtration efficiency declines or pressure drop increases significantly. Service life varies with water chemistry, contaminant load, and backwash maintenance.
Performance Check
Test treated water for iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide levels. Monitor pressure differential across the filter. Adjust backwash frequency or contact time if contaminant breakthrough occurs.
German Engineering
Manufactured in Germany with strict quality control and consistent MnO2 coating thickness
No Harsh Chemicals
Catalytic oxidation process requires no potassium permanganate regeneration for typical residential loads
Broad Application Range
Proven performance in residential wells, commercial systems, and municipal treatment facilities worldwide
Lower Operating Cost
Extended media life and reduced backwash frequency reduce long-term cost per gallon treated
