There are many reasons customers are switching from standard filter housing to either our Auto-duplexes or Automatic Backwashing Systems.Reduces process/system downtime Reduces operator exposure Reduces maintenance cost Reduces labor costs Reduces filter element disposal and Replacement cost Increases productivity Self-cleaning filters represent the ideal situation and provide the most productive and labor free solution. Energy Progress Inc. This is achieved by using normal shop air to create the shear velocity needed to effectively clean the filter with only the clean liquid inside each housing. Fluid is introduced through the bottom of the filter housing. It is then forced through a filter element where the contaminant is captured inside surface of the filter. The clean fluid exits through the outlet. A controller monitors the differential pressure across the filter. When enough contaminant collects on the element and the differential pressure reaches a pre-selected point (^P), the backwash sequence is initiated. The backwash is accomplished by automatically shocking the filter with water which lasts approximately 2-3 seconds. An automatic arm which rotates the motor mounted on the top, does this process in order to backwash the filter element. When the backwash operation is completed, the system retains always on-line, and the whole cycle begins again.
