Filtomat M100 Filters
Description::
The Amiad FILTOMAT M100 Series are mid range automatic filters, ideal for remote installation sites, with a water-driven self-cleaning mechanism that doesn’t require external power source to operate.
With their various screen areas the M100 models support flow-rates of up to 400 m³/h (1760 US gpm), with filtration degrees of 500 down to 80 micron and inlet/outlet diameters from 2”-10”.
The Filtering Process::
The filtration process begins when raw water flows through the filter inlet (1) into the coarse screen (2). Here, the water is pre-filtered in order to protect the cleaning mechanism from large debris. The water then passes through the inner surface of the fine screen; dirt particles are trapped and accumulate inside the filter while clean water flows through the filter outlet. The gradual dirt buildup on the inner screen surface causes a filter cake to develop, with a corresponding increase in the pressure differential across the screen.
