Clack In/Out Filter Head
Maintain optimal water flow and maximum resin efficiency in your utility room with the commercial-grade CK In-and-Out Filter Head.
Engineered specifically for top-mount mineral tanks with a standard 2.5" opening, this high-flow parallel bypass manifold is a vital replacement component utilized in Tommy Car Wash Systems Water Softeners and carbon filtration setups. When running a high-volume vehicle wash tunnel, treating your source water is vital to prevent scale buildup on your spray arches and ensure your chemical soaps lather perfectly. This rugged, non-backwashing In-and-Out head routes raw water directly down through your softening media and returns treated water seamlessly to the main manifold—all with minimal pressure drop.
Key features and benefits include:
- Tailored for Tommy Wash Filtration: Integrates seamlessly into the treatment loops of commercial water softening and scale prevention tanks.
- Heavy-Duty Reinforced Polymer Construction: Built to withstand the harsh, high-humidity, and salt-laden environments common to car wash backroom utility rooms without corroding or pitting.
- Optimized High-Flow Fluid Dynamics: Features a clean, unrestricted internal design that minimizes friction loss, helping your system sustain the high gallons-per-minute (GPM) demand required during peak tunnel operation.
- Standard 2.5" Tank Threading: Fits securely onto standard commercial mineral and resin tanks featuring a 2.5" NPSM top opening.
- Precision 1.32" Riser Pipe Match: Molded to accept standard 1" nominal schedule 40 PVC distributor tubes (1.32" actual Outer Diameter), ensuring a tight internal seal that prevents media bypass.
- Component Type: In-and-Out Parallel Top Mount Filter Head
- Tank Thread Size: 2.5" NPSM (National Pipe Straight Mechanical)
- Distributor / Riser Pipe Size: 1.32" O.D. (Fits standard 1" nominal Schedule 40 PVC)
- Inlet / Outlet Connection: High-Flow Female NPT (Typically 1" or 1-1/2" depending on plumbing adapter selection)
- Operation Mode: Downflow / Non-Backwashing
- Material: UV-Stabilized, Glass-Reinforced Polymer
- Application: Tommy Car Wash Water Softeners, Upflow Carbon Tanks, & Scale Inhibitors
- Corrosion-Proof Salt and Brine Immunity: The glass-reinforced thermoplastic housing is 100% immune to the corrosive effects of highly concentrated salt brine solutions used during resin regeneration, outlasting metal valve bodies that pit and degrade under constant salt exposure.
- Maintenance-Friendly Port Access: Designed with broad, flat wrench points across the body, enabling operators to easily unthread and remove the head for annual resin bed top-offs or media cleaning without cracking the main tank body.
- Thread-Protecting Over-Molded Gasket System: Features a robust perimeter base O-ring that creates an airtight, leak-proof compression seal against the 2.5" tank rim. This prevents hard-water encrustation and brine crystallization from locking or bonding the threads to the mineral tank over time.
