Automatic backwash filter is a kind of self-cleaning filter that consists of multiple stainless steel filer elements and can continuously perform filtration for 24 hours. It can effectively filter out solid particle contaminants from various water and low-viscosity liquids like rolling emulsions to make the liquid cleanliness meet the system operation and downstream process requirements and protect key downstream equipment. It is widely used in oil & gas, metallurgy, marine filtration systems, water treatment, Pulp & paper and other industries.
The unfiltered liquid flows into the automatic backwash filter from the inlet , 50% of the liquid flows through the central distribution tube, moves towards the top of the filter and enters filter elements from the top . The other part of the liquid flows into filter elements directly from the bottom of the filter . The unfiltered liquid enters filter elements from the upper and lower ends at the same time and flows out from the outlet after filtering . When the pressure drop or time reaches the preset value , the automatic backwash procedure is triggered. The gear motor drives the back-flushing rotation arm to backwash the filter elements in turn while the filtration continues. During backwashing, the upper end of the filter element is covered by the sliding block and then the back-flushing valve opens. The differential pressure between the outside of the filter element and back-flushing outlet makes the clean filtrate reversely flush the inner surface of filter element . The washed down impurities are discharged through the sewage pipe.

-Continuous automatic online filtration, no flow interruption when back-flushing, reducing downtime and maintenance cost
-Compact design, super high filtration capacity in single filter,remarkably saving the installation space and construction cost
-Various filter housing materials and filter element materials available, meeting various filtration requirements of raw water,cooling water, process water and sea water
-Multi-candle structure, large filter area, high dirt loading capacity, low surface velocity, low pressure drop, lower back- flushing frequency and less water waste
- V-SLOT high performance filter element, V-shape slotted opening, efficient back-flushing performance especially when filtering sticky contaminants
-Rigid structure standing high pressure impact, high reliablity with long service life usually over 10 years
- lmpulse back-flushing,quick action, high back-flushing intensity, less flushing water purge
-Double open ends of filter element allowing water flowing from both sides, no clogging at one blind end of the element, well-distributed filter cake, high flowrate and low pressure drop
-D.P. transmitter with local display as the standard configuration, long term steady and reliable, remote monitor support, much better than the common D.P.switch
-Reliable automatic control system, friendly Interface and operation, efficiently control the filter running
Automatic backwash filer can effectively filter out solid particle contaminants from water and low viscosity liquids (such as rolling emulsion, etc.), so that the liquid cleanliness can meet the system operation and downstream process requirements and protect the downstream key equipment. As a result, automatic backwash filers are widely used in the following industries.
-Oil & gas. Injection well water filtration; act as a pre-filter for hydrocracking, hydrogenation modification, hydrorefining and -hydrodesulfurization reactor to prevent the catalyst bed from clogging;
-Metallurgy. Rolling mill coolant filtration;
-Marine filtration system. Seawater desalination filtration; ballast water filtration;
-Water treatment. Boiler supply water filtration;
-Pulp & paper. Starch slurry filtration; paper making water filtration.
