The
48" AGF battery is a filtration system designed for medium
& high flow rates (90-1000 m3/hr and higher). Each
48" AGF unit contains a certain volume of fine gravel that
functions as the filtration media. The inlet of source water
to the filter is built at the top of the filter.
The water flows through the gravel media, leaving the solid
impurities in it.
After filtration the water flows through the nozzles at the
bottom of the filter, where it is collected to the outlet
manifold.

AGF Filtration position |
The
three way valve on each filter's inlet, has 2 positions:
Filtration position - Inlet to the filter open - allows
flow of the source water from the inlet manifold into the
filter and through the gravel media to the outlet manifold
and then to customer.
Backflush position - Inlet to the filter closes, and drain
is opened clean water from the outlet manifold flows in the
opposite direction into the filter, causing suspension of
the gravel particles, and flushing the solid impurities from
the gravel through the drain manifold.
The cleaning process of the media is at the full flow rate
(of the filter) in the opposite direction.
The automatic backflush process is run by a controller.
When the filters are loaded (with solid impurities) the difference
of pressure between the inlet and the outlet of the filter
system rises.
In response to a programmed signal? according to pressure
difference or time interval, the control unit which starts
and runs the backflush process of the filters in the battery
one after the other.
Only one filter at a time is cleaned while other filters in
the battery continue to supply clean water to the downstream,
and for the backflush process.
