5 lbs Acid Neutralization Media

Calcite/Corosex Mix: Naturally-occurring mineral rock consisting of approximately 95% calcium carbonate and 3% magnesium carbonate. Used to raise pH of acidic water.

Acidic waters on contact with Calcite slowly dissolve the calcium carbonate media to raise the pH which reduces the potential leaching of copper, lead and other metals found in typical plumbing systems.

Advantages:

• High uniformity coefficient for maximum contact for controlled pH correction
• Slower reacting
• Inexpensive

Physical Properties:

• Color - Near White
• Density - 100 lbs./cu. ft.
• Composition - CaCO3, 95% minimum - MgCO3, 3.0% maximum

Conditions for Operation:

• pH - 5 - 6
• Bed Depth - 24 - 30 in.
• Backwash Rate - 8-12 GPM/sq. ft.
• Backwash Bed Expansion - 35% of bed depth

Media typically needs replenished annually depending on pH level, water usage, and water chemistry.
