Hague Quality Water Intl 60 SERIES manual WaterMax Filter Specifications, Filter Purpose

WaterMax® Filter Specifications

The following table describes the available filters.

Filter	Purpose
61AAN	Removes iron and iron algae and bacteria. Reduces manganese. Also removes up to 5 ppm Hydrogen
	Sulfide with the presence of 2 ppm iron. For regeneration frequency, see 61AAN WaterMax® Filter
	Sizing Formula for this model.
61AAE-BWO	Removes tastes, odors and will reduce most man-made pollutants. Backwash every 3 days or as
	needed. Warning: Must not be backwashed for 24 hours after installation.
61AAR-BWO	Removes suspended matter (turbidity) from water down to the 20–40 micron range. Backwash every
	3 days or as needed.
61AAS-BWO	Will raise the pH of most low pH water. The mineral media must be replenished periodically to
	maintain optimum bed depth for effective correction. Backwash every 2 days to prevent solidification of
	mineral media.
61AAF-BWO	Removes suspended matter (turbidity) from water down to nominal 20 microns. Backwash every
	3 days or as needed.

1The 61AAS-BWO will raise the pH of most, but not all low pH water. Some water requires chemical injection using a chemical feed pump.

2Caution: Follow the instructions on the KMnO4 container.

3For optimum water quality, do not exceed recommended service flow rate for filter media type.
