HOW THE FILTOMAT M100 FILTER SERIES WORK

The FILTOMAT M100 is a series of automatichydraulic filters, with a self-cleaning mechanismpowered by a water-driven turbine. This series offilters is designed to work with various screen types,with filtration degrees from 500 to 80 micron, andis available in 2" to 12" inlet/outlet diameters.These filters units are hydraulically driven; noexternal power source is required. This featureenables operation at remote installation sites.

Filtering process:Water enters the filter and passes through a pre-screen which is designed to protect the cleaningmechanism from large debris. Particulate collectson the main screen and forms a "filter cake". Thefilter cake causes a pressure differential betweenthe inlet and outlet of the filter.

Self-Cleaning process:The self-cleaning process begins when the pressuredifferential across the screen reaches a preset levelof 7 psi.

The rinse controller signals an internal flush valveto open. This creates a strong flow of water out ofthe filter due to pressure in the filter system. Theflow of water through the nozzles creates a spotcleaning, back-flush technique which effectivelyremoves particles from the screen surface. Thiswater is directed through the suction scannernozzles attached to a hollow suction scanner shaft,through a turbine, which creates a spiral movementof the suction scanner shaft, and out the exhaustvalve. Pressure drop in the turbine chamber anddrainage of a piston (in the Modular type units only)forces the suction scanner shaft to move outward.The suction scanner nozzles sweep across the mainscreen. The combined spin and outward movementensures that the suction nozzles clean the entiremain screen.When the first outward cleaning stroke is completed,a second flushing cycle is triggered, pushing thesuction scanner assembly inward to its originalposition.The combined flush cycle takes 10-15 seconds,depending on the operating pressure.

Control device optionsThe standard filter is hydraulically driven and doesnot require an external power source. An optionalelectronic controller can be added to enable theoperation of multiple filters in parallel or toincorporate additional functions (valve control,output signals to a central control system, etc.).Drain
