Pistonless Filtomat Automatic Filter - Amiad

Filtering process:

Water is filtered through the fine screen to the outlet. The filtration cake is accumulated on the inner surface of the fine screen causing pressure differential to build up.

Self-cleaning process:

The M100 pistonless filters will start the self-cleaning process when the pressure differential across the screen reaches a preset level. The rinse controller opens the flushing valve creating a strong backflush stream to atmosphere.This backflush creates a suction effect at the nozzles, cleaning the face of the fine screen directly in front of the nozzle openings. Backflush water then flows through a collector pipe via a hydraulic rotor to the flushing valve, causing the dirt collector assembly to spin. Pressure drop in the rotor chamber forces the collector assembly upward. The combined spin and upward movements ensure that the suction nozzles sweep the entire screen area.


When flushing is completed, a second flushing cycle is triggered, pushing the collector assembly downward to its original position. The combined flush cycle takes 6 - 10 seconds.

** Min 30 PSI required
