Description
WODARO PH BALANCE 120 is a pH-raising water filter equipped with 120 litres of dolomite media and a Clack control valve. The model has a capacity of 1.3 m³/h and corrects excessively low water pH, helping reduce its corrosiveness towards pipework, fittings and pressure tanks. Automatic backwashing cleans and loosens the media.
Filter for water with excessively low pH
Acidic water can accelerate corrosion of plumbing components. Low pH also makes removal of iron and manganese compounds more difficult. WODARO PH BALANCE 120 is designed for installations requiring a pH increase, both as a pH correction unit and as part of a properly selected water treatment system.
This solution is intended for users whose water analysis has identified a need for pH correction and whose installation parameters meet this model's requirements. Selection should consider the water composition, required flow rate and feed pump capabilities.
Main advantages of WODARO PH BALANCE 120
- Correction of water acidity – the dolomite media raises pH, reducing corrosiveness resulting from excessively low pH.
- Capacity of 1.3 m³/h – a specific parameter for comparing the unit's capabilities with installation demand.
- Automatic operation with a Clack control valve – the controller manages filter operation and media backwashing cycles.
- Backwashing with water – removes accumulated suspended impurities and loosens the media.
- Reinforced vessel construction – the tank is made of polyethylene and epoxy resin, reinforced with fibreglass.
How does dolomite media work?
Water flows through a column filled with specially prepared dolomite media. According to the description, pH is raised by releasing calcium carbonate and magnesium oxide. This reduces water acidity and the associated corrosiveness.
A single fixed outlet pH should not be assumed. Unit selection should be based on water analysis results and installation operating conditions.
Model construction and equipment
WODARO PH BALANCE 120 comprises a filtration column with a vessel measuring 16 × 65 inches, filled with 120 litres of dolomite media, and an automatic control valve Clack.
The control valve manages normal unit operation and backwashing in the opposite direction to filtration flow. This backwashing cleans suspended impurities from the media.
Installation and selection for the system
Connecting the filter requires a raw water supply, a treated water outlet connection and a drain for backwash water. Operating conditions should be within a pressure range of 2–6 bar and a water temperature of 2–30°C.
Before purchase, check the feed pump's capacity and head. The manufacturer specifies that both parameters must meet the system's requirements. The stated filtration capacity of 1.3 m³/h does not replace checking the conditions needed for correct media backwashing.
Important when planning the space: the dimensions of 413 × 1705 mm refer to the vessel alone. Also allow for the control valve, connections and access to maintain the unit. For WODARO PH BALANCE 120, the connection diameter range is 1–1¼″; confirm the specific size before preparing the connection.
Operation and media service life
Automatic backwashing cleans and loosens the media, but does not restore its ability to raise pH. These properties are depleted during use, so backwashing should not be treated as a means of using the same media indefinitely.
The manufacturer states a media service life of up to 5 years. This is not a fixed replacement interval for every installation. During operation, pH correction effectiveness should be monitored and used to assess media maintenance needs.

FAQ
To what pH does the filter raise the water?
The manufacturer does not specify a single guaranteed pH after filtration. Suitability of the unit and the expected result should be assessed according to water analysis and installation operating conditions.
Is WODARO PH BALANCE 120 used to remove iron and manganese?
This model's main purpose is to raise pH. Correcting excessively low pH can support iron and manganese removal. Other units should be selected according to water test results.
Does automatic backwashing eliminate the need to replace the media?
No. Backwashing removes suspended impurities and loosens the media, but does not restore its ability to raise pH. The media is gradually exhausted and requires monitoring during operation.
Does 120 litres refer to the capacity of a treated water tank?
No. The value of 120 litres specifies the volume of dolomite media inside the column. The unit treats water as it flows through the media and has a capacity of 1.3 m³/h.
