AQUAMAXX Water Conversion Station

Physiotherapy and rehabilitation settings depend on this unit more than its modest specification suggests, because water quality in a small recirculating volume is entirely a function of filtration. Sand filtration removes bulk particulate at the flow rates generated by a bather-load system, and hair collectors protect the pumps that keep the water moving. Where circulation falters, every other stage of treatment falters with it. Medigear.uk supplies the station on the basis that the service's own infection control assessment governs operating procedure, and provides the full plant specification to support it.

Clinics running scheduled patient lists should treat hair collector access as a siting requirement rather than a preference. Emptying collectors is routine work, and a cabinet positioned so a collector cannot be opened without moving the unit turns a two-minute task into a deferred one. Deferred collector maintenance is the commonest cause of poor circulation in recirculating systems. Medigear.uk confirms access clearances during planning.

Facilities operating the equipment commercially should understand where this unit fits within the plant set, since a machine may be supplied with some units but not others. The hydraulic station provides power; the water tank provides heating, circulation, and ozone treatment; and this station provides sand filtration and pump capacity. Specifying an incomplete set produces an installation that cannot be commissioned. Medigear.uk confirms which units a given machine requires before quotation.

Operators dependent on the equipment should also hold consumables and consider a spare. Filter media, pump seals, and collector baskets are all wearing items, and a pump failure stops circulation and, therefore, the machine. Medigear.uk confirms the spare parts schedule at order.

Each self-priming pump has its own hair collector, catching hair and fibre before water reaches the impeller. Material passing through an impeller reduces flow and can eventually destroy the pump seal, so the collectors protect the most failure-prone components in the unit. Their simplicity belies their importance. Medigear.uk raises access clearance so they can actually be emptied in position.

Sand Filtration for Bulk Particulate

Sand media handles bulk particulate at the flow rates a bather-load system generates, and is regenerated by backwashing rather than replaced at each service. That suits recirculating water carrying real usage. Media grade and charge quantity are not published, and Medigear.uk obtains both in writing.

Two Pumps Rather Than One

Two self-priming pumps are specified as standard. Whether that provides redundancy, shared load, or separate functions is not stated, but in any of those readings, it offers more capacity than a single-pump arrangement. Medigear.uk obtains written confirmation of the duty arrangement so a buyer knows which benefit applies.

Valve Switching Included

A solenoid valve forms part of the specification. In sand filter installations,  a solenoid commonly automates flow-path switching for backwash, removing manual valve operation from the maintenance routine. Because the manufacturer does not state its function, Medigear.uk confirms the role in writing rather than presenting inference as fact.

The Smallest Footprint in the Plant Set

At under 0.8 m², this is the most compact of the three plant units, which matters where plant space is the constraint on installing the equipment at all. Access clearance for media changes and collector servicing is additional to the cabinet footprint. Medigear.uk confirms the total space requirement rather than quoting the cabinet alone.

A Defined Role in a Three-Part Plant Set

Power, heating and treatment, and filtration are divided across three units, and a machine may be supplied with some and not others. Knowing which unit does what prevents specifying an incomplete installation that cannot be commissioned. Medigear.uk establishes the required set against the machine before quotation.

Available as Replacement or Retrofit

The station is a discrete unit and can be added to an installation that lacks one or supplied as a replacement. For a commercial operator, a filtration failure stops circulation and therefore the equipment, so it is a candidate for spares holding. Medigear.uk confirms compatibility with installed plant before supply.

Unpublished Parameters Confirmed Before Order

Weight, rated power, sand charge, pump ratings, flow rate, and service intervals are all absent from the published specification, which is therefore uniform for all the others in the set. Medigear.uk obtains each in writing before quotation rather than estimating from comparable plant. Buyers therefore commit against confirmed figures.

Cabinet Dimensions: 980 × 787 × 1500 mm

The station cabinet measures 980 mm wide, 787 mm deep and 1500 mm high. These dimensions govern where it can sit in a plant space. Access clearance above and at the connection face is additional.

Floor Area Under 0.8 Square Metres

The manufacturer states that the covered area is under 0.8 m², the smallest among the three plant units in this range. Compact plant matters where floor space determines whether equipment can be installed. Servicing clearance still needs to be allowed for separately.

Filter Sand Cylinder

One sand filter cylinder provides the mechanical filtration stage. Sand media handles bulk particulate at working flow rates and is regenerated by backwashing. Charge quantity and media grade are not published and are confirmed before order.

Two Self-Priming Pumps

Two self-priming pumps are fitted as standard. Self-priming design allows a pump to draw water without manual priming after service or a loss of suction. Individual ratings are not published and are obtained in writing.

Hair Collectors on Both Pumps

Each pump has its own hair collector, straining hair and fibre before water reaches the impeller. These are the components requiring most frequent attention, and access to open them in position is a siting requirement. The basket size and cleaning interval have been confirmed with the factory.

Solenoid Valve

One solenoid valve is included. The manufacturer does not state its function, though solenoids on sand filter installations commonly automate backwash switching. Medigear.uk obtains written confirmation of its role.

Front-Face Service Connections

The product image shows multiple circular connection ports across the cabinet front. Grouped connections simplify pipework and later service access. Clearance at that face should be planned into the installation.

Top-Mounted Filter Head

The product image shows a head assembly mounted on the cabinet top with a blue cap, consistent with a filter valve. Overhead clearance is therefore needed for both operation and media access. Required height above the unit is confirmed before siting.

Position in the Three-Part Plant Set

This unit provides filtration and pump capacity, working alongside a hydraulic drive station for power and a water tank for heating, circulation and ozone treatment. A machine may be supplied with some units and not others. Medigear.uk confirms the required set.

Sand Charge and Media Grade

Media quantity and grade determine filtration performance and backwash requirements. Neither is published. Both are obtained in writing so a buyer knows the consumable specification before commissioning.

Pump Ratings and Duty Arrangement

Pump horsepower and whether the two operate as duty and standby, shared load or separate functions are not published. This affects redundancy, running cost and electrical load. Medigear.uk obtains the arrangement in writing.

Backwash Provision

Sand filters require periodic backwashing, which needs a waste connection and adequate flow. Whether backwash is automated via the solenoid valve or operated manually is to be confirmed with the factory. Waste discharge provision is planned during installation.

Filtration Flow Rate

Flow rate determines turnover of the volume served and, therefore, water clarity under load. It is not published. Medigear.uk obtains the figures so the turnover can be calculated based on the machine's water volume.

Power Supply and Rated Load

Rated power is not published for the station in isolation, with the two pumps and solenoid valve forming the load. Circuit capacity needs to be assessed against the confirmed figure. Medigear.uk obtains the specification in writing before delivery.

Net and Gross Weight

Neither weight is published for this unit. Net weight governs positioning and gross weight governs freight and delivery access. Both are obtained in writing before order.

Service Intervals and Consumables

Filter media, pump seals and collector baskets are all wearing items with defined service lives that determine running cost and downtime. No schedule is published. Medigear.uk confirms the spare parts schedule and holds the manufacturer contact for service items.

Documentation Pack Supplied at Order

Every unit is accompanied by the manufacturer's technical documentation, installation guidance, the maintenance schedule, and applicable certification records. Medigear.uk assembles this at order rather than leaving buyers to source it. Where a parameter is unpublished, its confirmed value is supplied in writing.

The Water Conversion Station provides sand filtration and pump capacity in the AQUAMAXX plant set, housing a filter cylinder, two self-priming pumps with hair collectors, and a solenoid valve within a 980 × 787 × 1500 mm enclosure and occupying under 0.8 m² of plant floor. Working alongside a hydraulic drive station for power and a water tank for heating, circulation, and ozone treatment, it suits physiotherapy and rehabilitation settings, depending on recirculating water quality, clinics running scheduled lists, and commercial operators holding spares against downtime alike. Because the published specifications for this unit are thinner than those for others in the set, weight, rated power, and charge, pump ratings, flow rate and service intervals are all obtained from the factory in writing before supply.
