FRP Filter Vessel – 24 Inch × 72 Inch | UV Water Systems Oman

The 24-inch × 72-inch FRP pressure vessel bridges the gap between small residential filter systems and full industrial-scale FRP vessels. At 24 inches (610 mm) internal diameter and 72 inches (1,829 mm) height, this vessel holds 9–12 cubic feet of filter media — sufficient for a commercial water softener serving a medium-sized hotel, the multimedia pre-filtration system for a 1,000–3,000 LPH commercial RO plant, or the primary sand filter for a commercial swimming pool or cooling tower makeup water system in Oman. UV Water Systems designs, supplies, and commissions 24×72 FRP vessels loaded with the appropriate media for each commercial water treatment application across Muscat and the wider Sultanate. At commercial scale, the 24×72 vessel is the most cost-effective balance between treatment capacity, physical footprint, and ease of installation — large enough for meaningful commercial throughput, but still moveable and positionable by a small installation team without heavy lifting equipment.

Commercial Filter Design with 24×72 FRP Vessels

A 24-inch diameter vessel provides approximately 2.9 square feet (0.27 m²) of cross-sectional filtration area. At the recommended multimedia filter loading rate of 8–12 m/hour (linear velocity), this gives a design flow rate of 2.2–3.2 m³/hour per vessel — within the range needed for commercial RO pre-treatment for systems producing 1,000–2,000 LPH of permeate. For higher flow rates (2,000–5,000 LPH RO systems), two 24×72 vessels in parallel are a practical and cost-effective design. UV Water Systems sizes commercial filter systems using hydraulic loading rate calculations based on the media type, flow rate, and Oman water quality data for each project, not rules of thumb.

Key Features and Benefits

9–12 ft³ media capacity: Holds sufficient SAC resin for a commercial softener treating a hotel laundry or pool fill water, or sufficient multimedia for a 2,000–3,000 LPH commercial RO pre-treatment system — the correct capacity range for Oman’s commercial water treatment sector.
2-inch top port for commercial control valves: Threaded for 2-inch multi-port control valve connections (Runxin 2 m³/hr or 4 m³/hr series, Fleck commercial valves) — compatible with the automatic backwash and regeneration valves used in UV Water Systems’ commercial filter and softener designs.
Corrosion-proof FRP across commercial service life: FRP construction resists all water chemistries and regeneration chemicals (sodium chloride for softener regeneration, backwash cycles with chlorinated feed water) encountered in commercial water treatment without liner inspection, corrosion protection, or replacement across a 10–15 year vessel service life.
Transportable to commercial sites: The 24×72 empty vessel weighs 30–45 kg — deliverable in UV Water Systems’ service vehicles and positionable with two-person installation team without crane or forklift equipment at most commercial premises in Muscat.
UV Water Systems provides complete loaded vessel assemblies: UV Water Systems loads the vessel with the correct media type, quantity, and gravel underbedding specification for each application — delivers a complete ready-to-connect assembly with multi-port valve, riser tube, and distributor, not just the empty vessel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size building or RO system suits a 24×72 FRP vessel softener? A 24×72 softener loaded with 9 ft³ of SAC resin (approximately 9 kg/L hardness removal capacity at design loading) suits buildings consuming 5,000–15,000 litres per day of hard water in Oman — a medium hotel, a large office building, or a food factory. UV Water Systems calculates the exact regeneration frequency and salt consumption based on your building’s daily water consumption and inlet hardness. Call +968 9763 7786 for a sizing consultation.
