Key Features
- Advanced six‑stage water purification: Includes pre‑filtration, RO membrane, post‑carbon and remineralisation stages for comprehensive water treatment.
- Antimicrobial protection (Sanic technology): Filter housings and components incorporate silver‑based antimicrobial agent to inhibit bacterial growth and keep the system cleaner for longer.
- Reverse osmosis membrane (100 GPD capacity): Produces up to approximately 380 litres per day of purified drinking water under typical conditions.
- Triple pre‑filtration: Removes sediments, rust, scale, chlorine and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) before RO purification.
- Post‑filtration refinement: Treated water passes through carbon and remineraliser filters to improve taste, eliminate residual odours and restore beneficial minerals.
- Compact under‑sink design: Ideal for installations in kitchens and small spaces with included mounting support and connections.
- Includes pressure pump & storage: Typically supplied with a pressure booster pump, in‑line storage tank and dedicated faucet for convenient access to purified water (model dependent).
- Suitable for potable water: Made from materials certified for safe drinking water use with operating conditions suited to typical municipal supplies.
Product Description
The HYDRA Self‑Cleaning Filter 1 ½″ (Without Cartridge) is a premium manual self‑cleaning water filter housing designed to provide efficient sediment removal and protection for your water system. Engineered for potable water applications and domestic or light industrial use, it is an ideal pre‑filtration solution to safeguard plumbing, pumps, irrigation systems, household appliances, and downstream filtration units from sand, rust, silt and other suspended particulates.
At the heart of the HYDRA system is its self‑cleaning backwash mechanism, which dramatically simplifies maintenance. Instead of frequently disassembling the filter housing and replacing cartridges, the unit lets you flush out accumulated debris quickly and easily by opening the drain ball valve at the bottom of the filter. This creates a controlled counter‑current flow that pushes trapped particles away from the cartridge surface and out through the drain — restoring flow and efficiency in seconds.
The casing is made from non‑toxic, potable‑water‑safe materials such as reinforced polypropylene with a PET bowl, and is designed to withstand typical operating conditions encountered in household and light commercial plumbing. It connects via 1 ½″ inlet and outlet ports (BSP or NPT thread options depending on model), making it compatible with a wide range of piping systems.
Because this listing is for the filter housing only, it does not include the actual filter cartridge — giving you the flexibility to choose the cartridge type and micron rating that best suits your application (e.g., stainless steel mesh RAH, polyester mesh RLH, or pleated polypropylene RSH cartridges with various filtration levels).
Key benefits of the HYDRA Self‑Cleaning Filter include:
Efficient sediment removal: Captures sand, rust, dirt and suspended solids before they reach sensitive equipment.
Self‑cleaning operation: Manual backwash with counter‑current flow flushes debris and keeps filters operating longer.
Reduced maintenance: No need for frequent cartridge changes or cumbersome disassembly.
Flexible cartridge choice: Compatible with a range of cartridge types (stainless steel, polyester, polypropylene) for tailored filtration.
Durable, potable‑water safe construction: Materials suitable for everyday water supply use.
Wide compatibility: Standard 1 ½″ connections fit many domestic, garden, and irrigation setups.
Typical installation points include main water entry / point‑of‑entry pre‑filtration, irrigation systems, booster pump protection, and prior to finer filtration units like carbon filters or RO systems. Its self‑cleaning capability not only helps maintain high flow rates but also significantly extends cartridge life, reducing the cost and effort of ongoing water filtration maintenance.
In short, the HYDRA Self‑Cleaning Filter 1 ½″ (Without Cartridge) is a cost‑effective and low‑maintenance filtration platform that provides a robust foundation for cleaner water and longer service life of your water handling equipment.
