3.4 Protection from
water damage
Deferrisation
GENO-mat FE-Z Deferrisation System
Only persons who have read and understood this operation manual
are permitted to work with the system. The safety guidelines are to
be strictly adhered to.
The system may only be used for the purpose outlined in the product
description (chapter C). The guidelines in this operation manual as
well as the applicable local guidelines concerning the drinking water
protection, accident prevention and occupational safety must be adhered to.
In addition, appropriate application also implies that the system may
only be operated when it is in proper working order.
Any malfunctions must be repaired at once.
Warning! In order to properly protect the installation site from water
damage:
a) a sufficiently dimensioned floor drain system must be available or
3.5 Indication of
specific dangers
b) a water stop device (see chapter C Accessories) must be in-
stalled.
Danger due to electrical energy! Do not touch electrical parts with
wet hands! Disconnect the system from mains before starting work
on electrical parts of the system. Have qualified experts replace
damaged cables immediately.
Danger due to mechanical energy! System parts may be subject to
overpressure. Danger of injury and damage to property due to escaping water and unexpected movement of system parts. Check
pressure pipes regularly. Depressurise the system before starting
repair or maintenance work on the system.
Hazardous to health due to contaminated drinking water! The
system may only be installed by a specialist company. The operation
manual must be strictly adhered to! Ensure that there is sufficient
flow. The pertinent guidelines must be followed for starting-up after
extended periods of standstill. Inspections and maintenance must be
performed at the intervals specified!
Note: By concluding a maintenance contract, you ensure that all of
the required tasks are performed on time. You may perform the interim inspections yourself.

B Basic information
1 | Laws, regulations, standards
In the interest of good health, rules cannot be ignored when it comes
to the processing of drinking water. This operation manual takes into
consideration the current regulations and stipulates information that
you will need for the safe operation of your deferrisation system.
Among other things, the regulations stipulate that
only approved companies are permitted to make major modifica-
tions to water supply facilities.
and that tests, inspections and maintenance on installed devices
are to be performed at regular intervals.
2 | Intended use/field of application
The GENO-mat FE-Z deferrisation systems are used for the oxida-
tion of dissolved iron in the raw water. The systems are used for private water supply plants up to maximum values of 3.0 mg/l of iron. If
the systems are applied and operated according to the instructions,
pure water values with a concentration of less than 0.1 mg/l of iron
can be obtained.
The following requirements must be observed in order to obtain optimum results:
Hydrogen sulphide and oil may not be detected in the water to be
deferrised.
Organic compounds should preferably not be contained in the
water; however, the maximum allowable value is 4 to 5 mg/l
above the COD.
The oxygen concentration should be proportionally 15 % of the
existing iron concentration and the pH value must be higher than
7.0.
However, should ammonium (> 0.1 mg/l) be detected in the raw
water, an additional treatment step is required.
Should humic acids be contained in the well water, the pure wa-
ter quality to be expected might be affected.

3 | Function
3.1 Filters
3.2 Backwashing
3.3 First filtrate
The GENO-mat FE-Z deferrisation systems for the removal of iron
work with an active insoluble catalytic filter material. A central control
valve automatically controls the operating cycle’s filtration, backwash
and first filtrate.
The raw water enters the exchanger tank via the raw water inlet and
flows through the catalytic filter material from top to bottom. Thus the
reaction of the oxygen with the iron contained in the water is accelerated.
Bivalent iron is transformed into insoluble, filterable, trivalent iron
(adding air sparingly might be required in order to improve the oxidation process). The filtered pure water is then directed via the lower
distributing nozzle and the rising pipe through the pure water outlet
into the piping system.
During the backwash process, the filter bed is forcibly flushed from
bottom to top and thus loosened up. Impurities retained during the
filtration process are washed out via the drain outlet at the control
valve. The GENO-mat FE-Z deferrisation system must be backwashed every 6 days at the latest (for the setting refer to chapter F).
By an automatic switch-over of the central control valve, the filter
bed will forcibly be flushed from top to bottom. This first filtrate is
discharged to the drain and afterwards the deferrisation system is
ready for operation once again.
3.4 Regeneration/
disinfection
3.5 Control unit
For operating and hygienic reasons, the deferrisation system must
be regenerated every 6 months with the special granulate GENOSpezialgranulat or GENO-oxi plus.
The GENO-mat FE-Z deferrisation systems are time-controlled via
an electrical timer.
In order to properly use the automatic timer control, the time interval
between two filter sequences (backwash interval in days) must be
set.
