Filter Back Flush
There are many different types of processes that use filter
material to maintain fluid cleanliness. To extend the life of the more
expensive filters, a back flushing system is sometimes utilized to force
the contaminates out of the filter material long enough for it to be flushed
away. One type of system used in the remediation of certain types of groundwater
contamination utilizes a chamber that has a number of layers of stacked
trays with small holes in the bottom. The water cascades through the trays
via the small holes, leaving the contaminants behind. Heavy buildup of
contaminants eventually would clog the holes and shut the system down,
so an automatic back flush was developed using high pressure MTH regenerative
turbine pumps to force the contamination buildup out of the holes at 300
psi, thus cleaning the trays and keeping the system on line. Please go
