Sediment Filter - Mixing Station

I use the same 1/2 canister filter and 1µ filter which I been using for the late year plus with little issues.


This is what I doing and the same salt you're using.


Not sure but I doubt your pump will not push the amount of PSI to cause any issues to the canister to the filter
All I've notice is slight flow restriction...but I usually change the filter out when it turns really brown.

Not sure I understand what you're asking

Unsung RC, I run it over night

I use the cheapest I could fine on amazon
Thank you very much. I was concerned about amount of flow that the 1/4 inch openings in the reactor will allow is enough to thoroughly process the 50+ gallons of new saltwater. Your suggestion of more mixing time is the answer.

I just used 1/2" barbed fittings on mine. I run mine so my hose to my tank(AWC in your case) and a recirculating loop back into the barrel run off a single pump like you have it planned out.


All you have to do is put a T valve on the output of the sediment filter. One end back into your mixing barrel, one end to your tank. I out a ball valve on the barrel line so I could stop pressure from dropping when filling the tank. With AWC and a peristaltic pump, this shouldn't be an issue.
Thank you. This is very helpful. I think I have a plan now.
