POT PERM-5 Pro-Pot Perm - Potassium Permanganate

Pro-Pot Perm is a strong oxidizing agent. It converts dissolved iron and/or manganese into insoluble oxides, which can be easily removed by filtration. Pro-Pot Perm regenerates and oxidizes greens and iron filter media. While there are many methods of introducing permanganate to the filter, one method is to make a solution and apply automatically or manually at regular intervals.

Applications

For each cubic foot of filter media, 2-4 oz. dry permanganate is suggested. It may be added directly to the filter or mixed with water and added as a solution. Eight ounces of permanganate will dissolve in one gal. of water at room temperature (68°F. Normal procedure for regenerating an iron filter is usually specified by the filter manufacturer or supplier and depends on water conditions.

Features and Benefits

Pro-Pot Perm is composed of National Sanitation Foundation (NSF certified material to meet Standard 60: Drinking water treatment chemicals.
