Nelsen Auto Iron Fltr 18x65 W/Media

For the most demanding commercial iron-removal needs, the Nelsen Auto Iron Filter 18x65 delivers maximum capacity and robust, automated performance. Built around an 18" x 65" natural polyglass tank pre-loaded with Greensand Plus media, this system is engineered to handle the high flow rates and heavy iron loads encountered in commercial and large-facility applications.

• Large 18" x 65" natural polyglass mineral tank for top-tier capacity
• Greensand Plus iron and manganese reduction media included
• Nelsen C-Series EE 1" electronic time clock valve, top-mounted
• Bypass valve included for service and isolation
• Basket distributor and gravel support bed for even, full-bed flow
• Heavy commercial unit at approximately 662 lbs; plumbing connections sold separately

The Greensand Plus media at the core of this filter oxidizes dissolved iron and manganese, converting them to solid particles that the deep media bed captures and holds. The top-mounted Nelsen C-Series EE electronic time clock valve automates the backwash cycle, flushing trapped iron from the media on a set schedule and regenerating the filter for continued reliability under sustained demand. This hands-off cycling is essential for facilities that cannot afford frequent manual maintenance.

With its large diameter and tall profile, the 18x65 provides extensive contact time and treatment depth, making it well suited to facilities with significant iron challenges or heavy water usage. Factory-loaded media simplifies commissioning, and automated regeneration keeps maintenance manageable for operators. Removing iron at the point of entry protects downstream plumbing, fixtures, and equipment throughout the building. Paired with the appropriate plumbing connections, this Nelsen commercial iron filter offers a powerful, dependable foundation for delivering clearer, higher-quality water across high-demand installations.

Greensand Plus performs best within a suitable pH range, so a water analysis is recommended before installation to confirm the media is a good match for your supply. Properly set up and programmed, this Nelsen iron filter keeps fixtures, laundry, and water-using appliances looking and working their best across the whole house. A trusted Nelsen system built on proven Nelsen and Greensand Plus components, it offers a complete, professional answer to one of the most frustrating well-water problems. Whether you are specifying a new installation or maintaining an existing one, it represents thoughtful engineering and dependable build quality at a fair value.
