Atlas Filtri HYDRA BIG F Pro 256 SANIC Series 20" Big UV Filtration System with 25 and 1 Micron Prefilters
The HYDRA BIG F PRO 256 SANIC UV system is a full whole-house water treatment system, combining sediment filtration + UV disinfection in one integrated, pre-plumbed unit.
Unlike the other Atlas Filtri housings you’ve been looking at (mono/duo/trio filter setups), this is a complete “water safety system”, not just a filter stage.
What this system actually does
This unit is designed to handle two main problems:
1. Sediment / physical filtration
It uses staged prefiltration (typically 25 micron + 1 micron plus a self-cleaning screen stage) to remove:
sand
rust
dirt
organic debris
This protects both your plumbing and the UV chamber from fouling.
2. UV disinfection (the key feature)
After filtration, water passes through a UV-C reactor (56W lamp) which:
inactivates bacteria
neutralises protozoa (parasites)
reduces viral contamination risk
So instead of “removing” microbes, it kills/inactivates them instantly using UV light.
Performance (real-world meaning)
Flow rate: ~70 L/min
UV dose: 30–40 mJ/cm²
Power: ~61W system
Max pressure: 8.3 bar
This is sized for:
medium to large homes
multiple bathrooms running at once
whole-house rainwater or bore setups
What’s included in the system
This is a fully integrated package:
Hydra BIG self-cleaning prefilter (90 micron screen stage)
25 micron sediment cartridge
1 micron sediment cartridge
56W UV-C reactor (stainless steel chamber)
control panel with alarm + lamp life counter
pressure monitoring gauges
lockable weatherproof housing
Where it sits in the Atlas Filtri ecosystem
You’ve been looking at:
Mono / Duo / Trio housings → filtration only
PFAS cartridges → chemical reduction
Calcite → pH correction
This unit is different because it adds:
✔ Biological protection (UV)
That’s the big upgrade.
It is typically used when:
water is from rainwater tanks
water is from bore / groundwater
or there is bacterial risk or uncertainty
Key strengths
Strong protection against microbiological contamination
All-in-one prebuilt system (no complex plumbing design needed)
High flow rate suitable for full home supply
Self-cleaning sediment stage reduces maintenance load
Lockable enclosure + monitoring system
