Filtration of water for removal of suspended impurities is an integral step in the treatment scheme for various applications. Filtration is also an important pre treatment step for ion-exchange systems (such as Softener etc.) and membrane systems (such as Reverse Osmosis Desalination, etc.) for protecting the ion-exchange resins and membranes from physical fouling due to suspended impurities present in water & system effectiveness for such kind of pre-treatment.
FEATURES
- Higher specific velocity
- Raw water can be used for backwashing the filter
APPLICATIONS
Such kind of filters is an ideal choice for all applications where a conventional sand filter is used. It is extensively used in side stream filtration of cooling water and in potable water treatment. In addition it finds application in sea water filtration and in filtration of chemical solutions. For these types of filtration rubber line or epoxy painted filters are used.
