Brush Self Cleaning Filters

Brush self-cleaning filters are simple and reliable instruments. They are suitable for removing solids from process fluids, such as oil, industry water and sea water. These filters are mainly used in paper mills, dyeing plants, cotton mills, chemical plants and the food industry.

The filters consists essentially of:

Body

In stainless steel or other steels on request.

Filtering elements

Tubular shape in stainless steel, made with trapezoidal wire fusion-welded to the bearing structure to avoid particles embedding and to improve the cleaning cycle.

 

Cleaning system

Via helicoidal wire to ensure cleaning efficiency and duration.

Control System
  • Geared motor driving cleaning system
  • Electrical box with logic
  • Discharge valve with electrical or pneumatic drive
  • Differential pressure switch

Applications

Liquid and gas filtration, Steel Plant, Petrochemical Plant, Pharmaceutical Plant, Food Industry, Water Treatment Plant.

Duty Mode: Thanks to their simple construction, these filters offer extremely reliable operation for 24 hours a day, even in unmanned installations. Apart from topping up the geared motor oil, they are virtually maintenance-free, just requiring basic servicing after long periods of work. The filters basically operate in this way: after entering the vessel, the fluid flows through filtering element from the inside to the outside. The filtering element catches any impurities. Once the pressure drop reaches a set value due to the progressive clogging of the filtering tube, the differential pressure switch sends a signal to activate the rotation of the cleaning system and the opening of the discharge valve. Cleaning consists of scraping the filtering surface and the elimination of any impurities by flushing with part of the process fluid. The filter continues to work during cleaning: the available flow rate is partially reduced owing to the fluid needed to flush away the impurities. At the end of the cleaning cycle, the geared motor is disabled and the discharge valve is closed; the filter then works normally.
