Automatic filtersReal-time self-cleaning filters: clean themselves automatically when head-loss across the screen reaches a preset valueUninterrupted water supply: the filter cleans itself in just seconds without interrupting downstream flowModular structure: different diameters, suitable For use singly or in manifold configuration providing optimal solutions Tomeet specific customer requirementsFlexibility of control options: Hydraulically or electronically controlled units. Electric control boards To suit specific needs.Flushing according To pressure differential and/oraccording To time. Continuous flushing, alarm signals, flushing counterand moreWide range of filtration degrees: from 3500 To 3 micron 

Filtering process:Water is filtered through the fine screen To the outlet. The filtrationcake is accumulated on the inner surface of the fine screencausing pressure differential To build up.Self-cleaning process:The M100 pistonless filters will start the self-cleaning processwhen the pressure differential across the screen reachesa preset level. The rinse controller opens the flushing valvecreating a strong backflush stream To atmosphere.This backflush creates a suction effect at the nozzles, cleaningthe face of the fine screen directly in front of the nozzle openings.Backflush water Then flows through a collector pipe via ahydraulic rotor To the flushing valve, causing the dirt collectorassembly To spin. Pressure drop in the rotor chamber forces thecollector assembly upward. The combined spin and upwardmovements ensure that the suction nozzles sweep the entirescreen 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.1.

From there it is passed Tothe outlet and as filtration cake is accumulated on the inner surface of the fine screen pressure differential builds up.Self-cleaning process:The M100 piston filters will start the self-cleaning process when the pressure differential across the screen reaches a preset level. At a preset level,the rinse controller opens the flushing valve creating a strong backflush stream through the drainage To the atmosphere. This backflush createsa suction effect at nozzles, cleaning the face of the fine screen directly in front of the nozzle openings.Backflush water now flows through collector pipe via hydraulic rotor To the flushing valve, causing the dirt collector assembly To spin.Pressure drop in the rotor assembly and drainage of the piston forces the collector assembly into axial movement. The combined spin andaxial movements ensure that the suction nozzles sweep the entire screen area. When flushing is completed, a second flushing cycle isautomatically triggered, pushing the collector assembly To its original position. The combined flush cycle takes 10-15 seconds.1. Inlet2.

Media FiltersPressurized sand media filtration is the traditional and most common technology, yet significant knowledge and experience are required in order to provide highly efficient systems.The filtration experience gained at amiad allows us to approach this market with the ability to design, install and commission a wide range of complex systems.Filtration principlesFiltering with media filters is also recognized as depth filtration. The media filters perform the filtration of water through a thick layer of graded particles. These particles can be sand, gravel or other granular materials. The filtration rate depends on the effective size of the bedding and the water velocity through the filter. Amiad offers a complete line of manifolds, accessories and control systems for single or multiple media filters. The Amiad Customer Support Department is at your service in designing complete media filtration systems with gravel, sand, active carbon or multi-layer beddings: for manual or automatic operation, for single or multi-units, manifolded for complete filtration solutions. 

Microfiber TechnologyTextile fibers are widely used for fine filtration in the disposable cartridge filter market. The Amiad AMF2 filter uses fiber thread technology to create a self-cleaning filter system. The basic filtration element in a "Microfiber" filter is the "thread cassette". Fine threads, which are 10 micron in diameter, are wound over a rigid grooved base plate. Water flows through the thread layers into the grooves and channel the water to specially designed outlets. The rigid base plate supports the thread layers and also plays a major role in the cleaning process of the media. The filter cassettes are mounted on hollow collector pipes.The cleaning mechanics High-pressure water jets spray through the thread layers hit the grooved base plate and reject back through the layers again. The contaminant is carried off the cassettes by the reject stream. Therefore, no dirt passes through the filter during back-flush. The filtration mechanics are a combination of surface and depth filtration. The design velocity through the media is 1-40 m/h. The newly developed filters is efficient for Drinking Water filtration, including the removal of Cryptosporidium, as well as for Swimming Pools, Reverse Osmosis protection, Cooling Tower side stream filtration for Legionella reduction, etc.The cleaning processThe filtered water flows from the four collector pipes to the filter's outlets. As dirt builds up on and in the cassettes, the pressure differential across the cassettes increases. When the differential pressure reaches a pre-set adjustable level, it triggers the filtration system's flush sequence. Flush sequences also can be triggered at pre-set timed intervals. The flush sequence is governed by an electronic control unit or by manual input.   

Plastic filtersAl-purpose plastic filters from 3/4" to 3", with filtration degrees from 3500 to 22 micron.High particle retention: Large filter area, allows long intervals between cleaning.Non-corrosive and durable: Engineered plastics; no metal parts in contact with water.Easy maintenance: The filter elements can be easily extracted from the filter housing for rinsing.Interchangeable filter element types and a wide range of filtration degrees to suit different requirements.Minimal energy loss: Extremely low head loss at high flow rates.Available also with the exclusive features of "Autoflush", "Brushaway" and "Scanaway" for semi-automatic cleaning.

Grooved Disc ElementsThese elements are constructed from plastic discs that are stacked onto a telescopic core. The discs are grooved on both sides. These grooves intersect to form the filtration element when compressed on the core. Disc filters are surface & depth filteration. The disc element provides especially effective retention of organic matter. The effective filtration area is comprised of both the outside surface and the channels formed by the intersected grooves. Suspended organic particulate adheres to the grooved surface. Cleaning the cartridge is made simple by the unique design of the telescopic core, which allows the discs to separate during the cleaning process. Disc elements are available for use with 1"-3" Amiad plastic filters and 2"-4" Amiad steel filters.
