Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Filterability Index measure?
A standard water quality parameter describing how readily a suspension can be filtered, which is significant in predicting the performance of deep bed filters.
How does the unit achieve flow without a pump?
By gravity, using the elevated placement of the feed tank; flow rate is adjusted with a regulation valve at the flow meter.
Can different filter media be tested?
Yes, the filter cartridge is easily removable, letting students compare different media compositions and mesh sizes, such as sand of varying grades.
What are the feed vessel and filter unit dimensions?
A 1.5-litre glass feed vessel and a filter unit 60mm high with a 38mm cell diameter.
Do you supply this equipment for institutional or export orders outside India?
Yes. Indian Lab Suppliers quotes equipment for institutional and tender buyers across export markets — see the Tenders page for documentation requirements.
