Pro-OX Lite 7500-Rev2.5 Advanced Iron Filter Systems Remove Iron and Manganese from Well Water
Pro-OX Lite 7500-Rev2.5 iron filters are a robust system for removing iron, rust, and sediment from well water using superior Pro-OX Lite filter media and advanced cont Corrosion Proof Ceramic disc auto backwash valve lasts years longer than standard piston-type control valves and can backwash over 150,000 cycles It uses advanced high-purity Pro-OX Lite iron filter media, the highest purity light weight manganese dioxde filter media 12% MnO4, higher than Katalox Lite (10%) and Greensand (5%) or Birm (2%). Easily removes up to 5 PPM iron and 0.2 PPM manganese For higher levels we recommend ozone, chlorine or peroxide injection ahead of iron filter. Backwashes are based on the time (days of the week) or gallons used. More efficient backwashes that use less water. Automatic program recall after power outages and maximum day regeneration functions Exceptional High Flow Rate with noticeable noise reduction during regeneration. NSF-certified, one-piece, seamless poly filter tank for long life Voltage 110v-230V Power Adapter. Control valve 12VDC. Uses less than 20 watts of power

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference Pro-OX filter media and Pro-OX Lite filter media?
Pro-OX filter is 85% manganese dioxide (MnO4), the active compound in the naturally mined filter media. Pro-OX is manufactured in Belgium. Pro-OX Lite is 12% MnO4 and is a lighter coated media, more similar to Greensand Plus (5%) or Katalox Lite (9 to 10%). Pro-OX Lite is manufactured in Texas and has the highest percentage of MnO4 of any of the manufactured iron filter media.
In our experience it works better than Greensand or the other filter media on the market. Pro-OX solid granular naturally mined media is also a good choice however due to its heavier weight it requires a higher level of backwash flow rate than Pro-OX Lite Similar to Katalox Lite and Greensand Plus it lasts about 6 to 7 years and is easily replaced if needed.
Unlike Katalox Lite Pro-OX Lite does not change the pH of the water or wear out fast and works great on removing manganese as well as iron from well water.
Why would I need the optional Rusco spindown prefilter?
The spindown filter will remove any sand or grit that may be in your well water and protect the iron filter. Even though it is not affected by sand like other piston and seal type control valves, it is good to keep sand out of your Pro-OX iron filter.
Another advantage is that it can be used to sanitize your Pro-OX iron filter with chlorine bleach if you have iron bacteria. By adding a cup of bleach once a year to the spindown filter, and turning the water back on, the Pro-OX media can be cleaned and sanitized. It only takes a few minutes and no chlorine gets in the house, as the filter is then put into backwash after sanitizing.
Can I use the optional air charger kit?
This size does not have that option, tank is needs to be 44" in height minimum.
Why use the optional ozone generator?
The optional ozone upgrade allows ozone gas to be injected in the air cycle rather than just air. This helps reduce iron and sulfur bacteria and provides much higher levels of oxidation to rapidly eliminate sulfur odors and help the Pro-OX filter media remove higher levels of iron and manganese. The powerful ozone generator includes a built-in air dryer for long life and produces 1 gram of higher purity ozone per hour, which is much higher than most ozone systems of this type.
Can I install this system myself or do I need a plumber?
Most of our customers do install themselves, however it is easy for any plumber or handyman to install. Ordering the optional flex lines makes it very easy to hook up to your piping.
What maintenance is required?
If you use the optional air charger kit, the air injector will need to be cleaned once or twice a year. This takes about 10 minutes and requires no special tools. There is no other maintenance required.
What if I don't use the air charger option, what maintenance is required?
There is little or no maintenance required. If your water has iron bacteria you can add some chlorine bleach in the optional spindown filter and turn the water back on and clean the Pro-OX media with chlorine, once or twice a year. This will remove any iron bacteria film and restore the Pro-OX media. Many customers however go years with no maintenance. Eventually after 6 to 10 years the Pro-OX Lite filter media can be dumped out and replaced, however we have many customers using it for over 12 years so far and it still works fine.
Will this affect my water pressure?
No. The pressure drop at maximum flow rate is around 10 PSI. At regular flow rates such as used in the home, the pressure drop is 1 or 2 PSI and is not noticeable.
What does Backwash Flow Rate Mean?
Your well produces a maximum amount of gpm. Many wells are less than 10 gpm, and you size the filter to match your available flow rate.

| 0.75 CF | 1 - 2 | 7 GPM | 4.8 GPM | Diameter 10" Height 37.5" (short height) |
| 0.75 CF | 1 - 2 | 8 GPM | 4.8 GPM | Diameter: 8" Height: 52.5" |
| 1.0 CF | 2 - 3 | 10 GPM | 6.5 GPM | Diameter: 9" Height: 56.5" |
| 1.5 CF | 3 - 4 | 12 GPM | 7 GPM | Diameter: 10" Height: 62.5" |
| 2.0 CF | 3 - 5 | 14 GPM | 8 GPM | Diameter: 12" Height 60.5" |
| 2.5 CF | 3 - 5 | 15 GPM | 10 GPM | Diameter: 13" Height 62.5" |
Flow Rate: Refers to maximum recommended Gallons Per Minute ("GPM") which means how fast the water is flowing. The 0.5 CF model works best for very small homes (one bath, 1-2 people) or for vacation home part-time use. Our most popular model is the 1.5 CF size, followed by the 1.0 CF size.
Backwash Flow Rate: This refers to the amount of water needed to lift, clean, and reclassify the Pro-Ox media. Your well must put out the minimum gpm requirment for the backwash.
"CF" refers to the amount of filter media and gravel are in the tank, a total of 0.5 cubic feet.

Removal Rate: Easily removes up to 5 PPM iron, .2 PPM manganese, higher removal rates possible with pre-chlorination or pre-aeration; there is no air draw otpion for this size tank.
Iron levels over 5 PPM, or when manganese or other conditions such low pH, high levels of sulfur odor or iron bacteria or tannins, please note that additional treatment such as chlorine, peroxide, or aeration may be needed.
Manganese removal: when manganese is present over 0.5 PPM, we recommend a chlorine feed. A chlorine feed with a contact/retention tank allowing 30 seconds of time after the chlorine has been injected, followed by the Pro-OX filter systems does a GREAT job on removing manganese. A carbon filter can be used after the Pro-OX system to remove any residual chlorine, so you get all the benefits of chlorination without having any chlorine in the house water.
