Descripción
The Pentair 10" x 47" Natural Poly Glass Mineral Tank (alternate part PT1047-A) is a high-capacity vessel for larger residential and light-commercial water-treatment systems. With the wide 10-inch diameter and a taller 47-inch height, this tank holds an especially generous media bed—ideal for applications that demand both high service flow and long run times between regenerations, where a shorter tank would fall short.
Extra height, extra capacity
The combination of a 10-inch diameter and 47-inch height gives this tank one of the larger media volumes in the common residential range. More media means higher sustained service flow and longer intervals between regenerations or backwashes, which is exactly what large homes, demanding water sources, and small commercial applications call for. The added height also provides generous freeboard above the bed, giving the media room to expand and stratify properly during backwash so fines rinse out and the bed reclassifies cleanly. Construction is natural-finish poly glass—a fiberglass-reinforced shell bonded over a seamless inner liner—that resists corrosion from treatment chemistry on the inside and ambient humidity on the outside, with no rust to contaminate the water it treats.
- 10" diameter x 47" height for extra media capacity
- Natural-finish poly glass (fiberglass-reinforced) construction
- Seamless, corrosion-resistant inner liner
- Holds softening resin, carbon, or specialty media
- Approximately 13.36 lb empty weight
- Genuine Pentair mineral tank (alt. PT1047-A)
As a genuine Pentair tank, the 10" x 47" vessel pairs cleanly with the standard control valves and distributor tubes sized for its opening, integrating reliably into larger residential and light-commercial builds without compatibility headaches. Use it for a high-flow whole-house carbon filter, a large softener, an iron or sulfur filter, or a custom specialty-media system targeting a particular contaminant. When commissioning, confirm your supply can deliver the backwash flow this larger bed needs, and run an initial backwash to rinse manufacturing dust before putting the system into service. Whether you're assembling a new system, stepping up to greater capacity from a smaller tank, or replacing an aging vessel, this 10" x 47" poly glass mineral tank delivers the durable, high-volume foundation a demanding treatment system needs. Finish it with the appropriate valve, distributor, and media to complete a reliable, high-capacity setup.
