Advanced Catalytic Filtration

Katalox-Light® is an advanced catalytic filtration media designed for the removal of iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and other contaminants commonly found in well water. Manufactured in Germany and engineered with a high-performance manganese dioxide coating, Katalox-Light® provides exceptional filtration efficiency, long service life, and reliable performance across residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Its lightweight design and high surface area allow for effective contaminant removal while reducing backwash requirements and maintenance demands.

Katalox

How It Works

Katalox-Light® uses catalytic oxidation and mechanical filtration to convert dissolved contaminants into filterable particles that can be removed from the water stream. The media’s high surface area and manganese dioxide coating accelerate oxidation reactions, improving removal efficiency for iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide. Depending on water chemistry and application requirements, the system may be used with oxidants such as air, ozone, chlorine, or hydrogen peroxide to enhance performance.
