Aries® Managed Air System

Why Choose Aries®?

Efficient Air Scour
Delivers powerful, controlled bursts of air that lift and agitate filter media for deeper cleaning.

Water Savings
Reduces the volume of water needed for backwash cycles, cutting operational costs.

Extended Media Life
More effective cleaning translates to longer filter runs and reduced frequency of media changeouts.

What’s New with Aries®

Patented Stainless Steel Flexible Hose Connection
Our latest patent introduces a flexible stainless steel hose that replaces traditional rigid pipe connections. This innovation:

• Eliminates on-site welding, threading, and cutting
  
  
• Solves elevation mismatches between filters
  
  
• Speeds up installation and retrofit projects
  
  
• Provides a safer, more adaptable connection
  
  

The Aries Float Inspection System
Maintaining air scour systems has never been easier. The Aries Float allows operators to inspect and service Aries® drop pipes without removing filter media:

• Attach the float during annual inspections
  
  
• Lift the Aries® out of the expanded media bed during backwash
  
  
• Inspect and service above the filter bed
  
  
• Return Aries® to the filter floor by simply sinking it through the expanded media on the next backwash cycle
  
  

This innovation saves time, reduces labor, and eliminates the need for disruptive media removal.
