Air filtering for Drinking Water Storage Tanks

Filtering the supply air reduces hygiene hazards

Every drinking water reservoir respirates: Aeration and deaeration of drinking water reservoirs is necessary for pressure equalisation as the water level in the water chamber varies. Huge amounts of air are sucked in as drinking water is being withdrawn. This air must be pressed out again during tank filling. The hygiene problem lies in the “breath-in” process. Depending on ambient air quality, there is a certain risk that higher amounts of dust, bacteria, viruses and germs may pass into the stored drinking water.

Ventilation technology with HUBER air filter plants reliably prevents such risks. Generally, only filtered ambient air should be allowed to pass into the water reservoir.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

HUBER offers a total of four different sizes of aeration/deaeration plants.

BLA L251, BLA L252, BLA L361 and BLA L661.
These air filter plants differ mainly in their throughput capacity and size and range from 250 m³/h to 3000 m³/h.

When building a drinking water reservoir, you should never do without an aeration and deaeration system.

The aeration and deaeration of drinking water reservoirs is necessary for pressure equalisation as the water level in the water chamber varies. The air streaming into the reservoir must be filtered sufficiently to ensure it is free of dust, pollen and other pollutants.

The air filters installed in HUBER aeration/deaeration plants comply with the current standards EN ISO 16890 and DIN EN 1822.

If there are no water level fluctuations in the drinking water reservoir and therefore no natural air exchange can take place, we can optionally work with a fan in the air duct. This ensures an optimal air exchange in the reservoir.

A safety valve can be optionally installed for such a case. This opens in the event of an emergency and thus prevents damage to the air filter system.
