Accessories and base
✅ For accessories, a complete system should also include core components such as a water distributor, an automatic valve, and a central pipe, which are not included by default. If you require these components, please specify this when requesting a quote. The following is a diagram showing the installation locations of the accessories:

✅ For base, 4872 model FRP vessel uses a triangular base, FRP material.

How many 4872 FRP vessels can be packed in one container?
| 20GP | About 8pcs |
| 40HG | About 16pcs |
How much filter media does a 4872 FRP Vessel for Water Treatment fit?
For an FRP storage tank, the amount of filter media it can hold is directly related to its capacity.
The capacity of the 4872 model is 1750L.
Therefore:
| Filter Media Type | Loading Volume (kg) | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz Sand | About 2,170 kg | Sediment & turbidity removal |
| Activated Carbon | About 560 kg | Chlorine & odor removal |
| Ion-Exchange Resin | About 980 kg | Hardness & scaling control |
| Manganese Sand | About 600 kg |
Iron & manganese removal |
