Description
WODARO PH BALANCE 90 is a pH-raising water filter with a Clack control valve, equipped with 90 litres of dolomite media. The model has a rated capacity of 1 m³/h and corrects excessively low water pH, which contributes to corrosion of pipework, fittings and pressure tanks. Automatic backwashing cleans and loosens the media, making routine operation easier.
Filter for water with excessively low pH
Acidic water can accelerate corrosion of plumbing components. WODARO PH BALANCE 90 raises pH, helping reduce water corrosiveness. This solution is intended for installations where water testing has identified a need for pH correction.
Low pH also makes removal of iron and manganese compounds more difficult. A pH-raising column can therefore form part of a treatment system, preparing the water for subsequent purification stages. Its main purpose is pH correction — selecting units to remove other contaminants requires a separate assessment of water analysis results.
How does dolomite media work?
Water flows through specially prepared dolomite media. According to the manufacturer's description, pH is raised by releasing calcium carbonate and magnesium oxide. The filter thereby corrects water pH and reduces its corrosiveness.
The media's ability to raise pH is gradually depleted. Unit operation therefore involves both backwashing and checking pH correction effectiveness.
Construction and automatic operation
- Clack control valve — controls automatic filter operation and backwashing.
- 90 litres of dolomite media — filter media designed to raise water pH.
- 14 × 65″ vessel — made of polyethylene and epoxy resin, reinforced with fibreglass.
During backwashing, water flows through the media in the opposite direction to normal operation. The process removes accumulated suspended impurities and loosens the column's media bed.
Selection and installation requirements
WODARO PH BALANCE 90 should be selected according to water analysis results, the required flow rate and installation parameters. Its capacity is 1 m³/h, equivalent to 1000 litres per hour. The media volume alone is insufficient to assess whether the unit is suitable for a particular property.
The manufacturer specifies that the feed pump's capacity and head must be considered. Pump parameters must meet the system's requirements. Installation must also provide a drain for backwash water and space for the control valve above the vessel.
Backwashing does not restore the media's ability to raise pH. It cleans and loosens the media, but does not replace the need to change exhausted material. The manufacturer states a media service life of up to 5 years; this does not mean the same effective operating period in every installation. Replacement needs should be assessed with regard to the water parameters achieved.

FAQ
To what pH does the filter raise the water?
The datasheet does not specify a single guaranteed outlet pH. Unit selection and assessment of the expected result should be based on water analysis and installation operating conditions.
Does WODARO PH BALANCE 90 replace an iron or manganese removal filter?
The unit is designed to raise pH. pH correction can facilitate iron and manganese removal in a treatment system.
Is salt needed to backwash the media?
The process described involves backwashing with water. It does not involve brine regeneration. However, a suitable water supply and a drain for backwash water are required.
Does the height of 1674 mm include the Clack control valve?
No. This is the height of the vessel alone. The control valve increases the unit's overall height.
