AutomotivePressure Filtration > High-Rate Automatic Backwash Filtration Systems
High Rate Automatic Backwashing Sand Media Filters are designed for general-purpose water filtration. These permanent media automatic backwashing filters will remove organic and/or inorganic suspended solids down to 20 microns in size. Through the use of automatically controlled backwashing, the filter will operate “on line” for extended periods of time prior to the short backwashing cycle. Automatic filter operation is monitored on both elapsed time as well as pressure differential. When the controller “calls” for a backwash as a result of pressure differential or elapsed time, the backwashing function utilizes a portion of the clean filtered water produced by the system to clean the media. Single tank systems utilize unfiltered water for backwashing. Optional external backwash water sourcing systems are available for both single and multiple tank systems. |
The
standard single media sand filter utilizes a vertical
side shell depth of 24”. Deep bed sand media
filters featuring a 36”
deep side shell are also available. Ecologix
sand media filters feature fusion bonded epoxy
linings, cast iron or brass automatic valves,
solid state automatic controls and type 304 stainless
steel underdrains. Standard systems are shipped
assembled on structural steel skids for easy installation
and start-up. Standard inlet and outlet connections
are grooved but may be ordered flanged as an option.
