Product Type:
Self Cleaning Filters
The Standard Range of self cleaning filters provides highly cost effective solutions to difficult liquid filtration problems of all viscosities
Principle of Operation
The Airpel Series self-cleaning filter (SCF) blends modern technology with simplicity to provide a versatile method of filtering your process fluids. The filter can be set up for fully or semi-automated or manual operation during which the liquid enters the body and flows through the filter element from outside to in. Debris is collected on the outside of the wedge wire or perforated element. Cleaning takes place without interruption to flow by the rotation of the element against fixed scraper blades. The debris accumulated during rotation is deposited into the bottom of the filter body from where it can be periodically discharged either manually or automatically via the drain port. Ideal for processes that require continuous flow, the SCF range is also suitable for use on unmanned sites and with hazardous process fluids.
Construction
The Standard Pressure Range of self cleaning filters is comprised of a cast filter head and stainless steel fabricated bowl. Suitable for working pressures and temperatures of 13.8 barg and 260°C (dependent on seal materials) respectively. Various levels of automation and element design can be chosen to suit application and installation demands.
