Filtering
Process:
Water is filtered through
the fine screen To the outlet. The filtration cake is accumulated
on the inner surface of the fine screen causing pressure
differential To build up.
Self-Cleaning
Process:
The M100 pistonless filters
will start the self-cleaning process when the pressure differential
across the screen reaches a preset level. The rinse controller
opens the flushing valve creating a strong backflush stream
To atmosphere. This backflush creates a suction effect at
the nozzles, cleaning the face of the fine screen directly
in front of the nozzle openings. Backflush water then flows
through a collector pipe via a hydraulic rotor to the flushing
valve, causing the dirt collector assembly to spin. Pressure
drop in the rotor chamber forces the collector assembly
upward. The combined spin and upward movements ensure that
the suction nozzles sweep the entire
screen area.
When flushing is completed,
a second flushing cycle is triggered, pushing the collector
assembly downward To its original position.
The combined flush cycle
takes 6 - 10 seconds.

Filtering
Process:
Water is filtered
through the inlet and is pre-filters through the coarse
screen and Then filtered through the fine screen. From there
it is passed To the outlet and as filtration cake is accumulated
on the inner surface of the fine screen pressure differential
builds up.
Self-Cleaning
Process:
The M100 piston
filters will start the self-cleaning process when the pressure
differential across the screen reaches a preset level. At
a preset level, the rinse controller opens the flushing
valve creating a strong backflush stream through the drainage
To the atmosphere. This backflush creates a suction effect
at nozzles, cleaning the face of the fine screen directly
in front of the nozzle openings. Backflush water now flows
through collector pipe via hydraulic rotor To the flushing
valve, causing the dirt collector assembly To spin. Pressure
drop in the rotor assembly and drainage of the piston forces
the collector assembly into axial movement. The combined
spin and axial movements ensure that the suction nozzles
sweep the entire screen area. When flushing is completed,
a second flushing cycle is automatically triggered, pushing
the collector assembly To its original position. The combined
flush cycle takes 10-15 seconds.
