12" × 48" FRP Filter Vessel
Couldn't load pickup availability
The 12" × 48" FRP Filter Vessel is a compact-to-medium capacity pressure vessel designed for water filtration, activated carbon filtration, iron removal, water softening and RO pre-treatment systems.
Manufactured from Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP), it provides good resistance to rust, corrosion and moisture while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. Its 12-inch diameter provides a larger filtration area than smaller FRP vessels, making it suitable for residential, commercial and small industrial water treatment applications.
The vessel can be fitted with a suitable top-mount multiport or automatic control valve and filled with the appropriate filtration media based on the required treatment process.

Industrial Grade Durability

💧 Key Benefits
Corrosion Resistant
FRP construction provides good resistance to rust and corrosion, making the vessel suitable for continuous water-treatment environments.
Good Filtration Capacity
The 12-inch diameter provides a larger media bed and filtration area than smaller vessels, making it suitable for higher flow requirements.
Lightweight Construction
The FRP body is easier to transport, position and install compared with many conventional metal vessels.
Versatile Media Compatibility
The vessel can be used with different filtration media depending on the required water treatment process.
Low Maintenance
FRP construction eliminates the need for regular painting and anti-rust treatment, helping reduce maintenance requirements.
Suitable for RO Pre-Treatment
The vessel can be incorporated into RO pre-treatment systems for sand filtration, carbon filtration, iron removal or softening, depending on the raw water quality.

🪨 Common Media Selection
- Water Filtration Sand – for reducing suspended solids, turbidity and particulate matter.
- Activated Carbon – for reducing chlorine, odour, taste and certain organic contaminants.
- Iron Removal Media – for reducing dissolved iron under suitable water chemistry and operating conditions.
- Cation Exchange Resin – for reducing hardness in water softening applications.
- Multi-Media Combinations – for enhanced particulate and turbidity reduction.
- Specialized Filtration Media – selected according to specific raw-water contaminants and treatment requirements.
Media selection should be based on raw water analysis, required flow rate, media specifications and desired treated-water quality.
🔧 How to Install
- Position the vessel vertically on a stable and level surface.
- Install a compatible top-mount multiport or automatic control valve.
- Ensure the internal distributor/strainer assembly is correctly fitted.
- Add the recommended underbed material, where applicable.
- Fill the vessel with the specified filtration media.
- Maintain adequate freeboard above the media bed.
- Connect the inlet, outlet and drain lines correctly.
- Check all connections for leakage.
- Perform an initial backwash and rinse cycle before filtration.
- Start normal operation within the recommended flow and pressure limits.
For softener applications, connect the vessel to a suitable brine tank and regeneration system.
Important: All installation, commissioning, and servicing work must be carried out only by qualified water-treatment professionals. Improper or unprofessional installation may result in equipment or plant failure, potentially creating serious or fatal safety hazards. It may also lead to contaminated or poor-quality water, which can cause health risks, damage to industrial machinery, and operational failures.
⚙️ How it Works
The FRP vessel contains a selected filtration media bed through which water flows under pressure.
- Raw water enters the vessel through the top-mounted control valve.
- Water flows downward through the selected filtration media.
- The media captures, adsorbs or exchanges the targeted impurities.
- Treated water reaches the bottom distributor.
- The distributor collects and directs the filtered water toward the outlet.
- When the media becomes loaded with impurities, a backwash cycle is performed where applicable.
- The vessel is rinsed before being returned to normal filtration mode.
The actual contaminants removed depend on the type and quantity of media installed.
