CUSTOM FILTERS

FILTRATIONThe fluid enters from (A), and flows through the filteringelement (3) (inside-outside filtration).

The filtered fluid is collected in chamber (D) and exits from (B).During this phase, the filter operates as a static filter. As aresult, the cleaning process does not take place.

As the filtering element begins to get clogged, the differentialpressure Δp shown on the indicator (4) gradually increases, untilit reaches the set-point value.

The Phase 2 starts (backwash cleaning during filtration).

Δp < Set Point Δp

STATUSDifferential pressure indicator (4) in clean condition

Motor (2) is not operatingNozzle (1) is not turning
