MCV HEAD MANUAL MULTI PORT VALVE (PLASTIC BLACK COLOUR) (FOR FRB1044)

The products listed are both Manual Multi-Port Control Valves (MCV) designed for use with a FRB1044 filter media tank, which is a common size for residential or light commercial water filtration systems.

These valves are essential components that allow an operator to manually direct the flow of water through the filter tank to perform different maintenance cycles.

MCV HEAD MANUAL MULTI PORT VALVE (PLASTIC BLACK COLOUR) (FOR FRB1044)
This is the standard, more economical version of the multi-port valve head.

Feature Description
Type Manual Multi-Port Valve (MCV) Head
Material Durable, corrosion-resistant plastic (often ABS or similar engineering plastic), typically in black color.

Application Fits a standard FRP (Fiber-Reinforced Plastic) filter tank, likely with a 2.5-inch top opening, designed for the FRB1044 (a tank model typically measuring 10 inches in diameter by 44 inches in height).

Function Controls the water flow direction in the filter tank.

The manual handle allows you to switch between different operational modes, such as Filter/Service, Backwash, and Fast Rinse.

Some models may also include a By-Pass or Waste position.

Use Used for water filters utilizing media like sand, activated carbon, or other filter media.



Multi-Port Valve Functions
A manual multi-port valve is a crucial component for filter media tanks, as it enables the necessary cycles to maintain the filter media's effectiveness. The main positions include:

Filter/Service: The normal operating position where raw water flows down through the filter media, is purified, and then exits for use.

Backwash: The maintenance position where water flow is reversed (upwards) to lift the media bed, flush out trapped contaminants (dirt, sediment, etc.), and send the wastewater to a drain. This cleans the filter media.

Fast Rinse: A cycle performed after the backwash. Water flows back in the normal filtration direction (downwards) to settle the media bed, remove any residual impurities dislodged during backwash, and ensure the initial filtered water is clear before switching back to Filter/Service mode.

By-Pass / Closed / Waste (optional): Other positions might allow for the water to bypass the filter entirely for maintenance on the valve/tank or to drain water to the waste line.
