Affordable self cleaning filter for low outputs
Rotorflush Filters is introducing a miniature self cleaning filter to its range, measuring only 100mm in diameter with a throughput of up to 50 litres per minute
With no external moving parts, even fluids containing string, plastic bags, sanitary ware etc cannot cause blockage.
In addition the pump produces a filtered output which will not block nozzles and valves in upstream equipment.
Huber Technology UK is a major supplier of inlet screens for sewage treatment works.
The company wished to use the in-flowing sewage as a source of wash water for its screens.
Previously potable water had been used.
The Rotorflush Filterpump provided the ideal solution: an easy to install, submersible pump and self-cleaning filter in one unit.
Not only was the unit able to work directly in sewage without blocking - an essential requirement on unmanned sewage treatment works - it also provided a filtered supply that would not block the nozzles and solenoids on their screening equipment.
A number of units have been supplied to Huber over the last 9 months with great success.
Confident of the reliability and cost effectiveness of the unit, Rotorflush is now releasing this exciting product to other industries.
