Automatic
Filtration System Process
Inlet
opens allowing a flow of water from the inlet manifold into the
filter, through the 5 elements of filtration, to the outlet manifold
and out to the field.
Backflush
Process
Inlet
is closed. Drain port opens allowing clean water to flow from
the outlet manifold in the opposite direction into the filter.
The discs are cleaned, particles are flushed out from the filter
through the drain manifold.
When the filters are loaded (with particles) the difference of
pressure between the inlet and the outlet of the Galaxy rises.
A differential pressure gauge detects the critical difference
of pressure pre-programmed transmitting a signal to the control
unit which begins the backflush process of the filters in the
battery one after the other.
Only one filter at a time is cleaned, while the remaining filters
in the Galaxy Automatic Filtration System continue to supply clean
water to the downstream for the backflush process.
Automatic
Filtration System Product Advantages
•
compact, simple design.
•
Automatic, self-cleaning, self-flushing system triggered by pressure
differential and/or pre-set time.
• Equipped
with new spine for maximum performance and low maintenance.
• Simple
installation and operation.
• Short
backflush cycle - saves backflush water.
•
Flushing cycle has a regulated volume, short and environmentally
friendly, minimizing the use of flushed water.
• Innovative
design captures and stores large amounts of solids - reducing
the need for backflushing.
• No
interruption of flow during backflush cycle.
Automatic
Filtration System Applications
•
For surface and well water
•
For systems requiring high volumes of water
