Favorite

The simple design and quick-element access of the AFC-Series Tubular Backwash Filter can significantly reduce the time and effort required to maintain, change elements and reconnect the unit's valves.

The AFC-Series tubular backwash filter is optimal for applications that demand high-pressure operation, up to 1,000 psi and scalable flexibility.  Systems are available in single, duo, and multiplex configurations.
Features
  • Solids removal from 1 to 1,700 microns
  • Single system flow rates up to 3,000 gpm (681 m3/hr)
  • Broad selection of filter media materials and retentions suitable for a wide range of applications
  • Smooth pipe and nozzle connection transitions to avoid dead spots in the the fluid stream and minimize pressure drop
  • Numerous automated backwash option for operator-free service and minimal backwash effluent (<2% of system volume)
  • Available ACCUFLUX media dramatically increases filter surface area in the same footprint
  • Proprietary 3-way, full-ported valves on AFC-1100 Multiplex Filters allow fast, frequent sequencing and maximum cleaning force during backwashing
  • Isolated top-to-bottom backwash flow on AFC-1100 and AFC-3300 Multiplex Filters ensures complete and efficient media cleaning while continuing to deliver filtered product downstream
  • Quick coupler valve connectors for ease of body tube removal
