Scan Kleen Filters
Quick and easy manual cleaning. Scan-Kleen Screen Filters offer quick and easy manual cleaning without flow interruption. To clean, just open the flush valve and turn the handle to rotate the dirt collector. The combination of rotation and linear movement scans and cleans the whole internal screen surface. Water flow is not interrupted during the cleaning process. A stainless steel screen provides strength and long life durability.
Quick and Easy Manual Cleaning
The stainless steel screen provides strength and long life durability and is ideal for use as a primary filter on well water with small amounts of sand or reservoir water with small amounts of algae. When cleaning the filter, there is no need to manually disassemble, clean the screen and reassemble the filter. Just open the flush valve and turn the handle to rotate the dirt collector. The combination of rotation and linear movement scans and cleans the while internal screen surface. Water flow is not interrupted during the cleaning process
Product Advantages
- Corrosion-proof high density polypropylene will
not rust or corrode like metal filters.
- Operates efficiently at varied flow rates.
Applications
- Primary filter on well water with small
amounts of sand
- Primary filter for center pivots
- Reservoir water with small amounts
of algae
- Back-up filter for:
- Media filter batteries
- Sand separators
Filtration Operation
Water enters the filter through the inlet and reaches the screen (1) which traps
the particles from the water. As more water flows through, debris builds up on
the screen. As debris accumulates on the screen, a pressure differential builds
up between the internal and external sections of the screen.
Flushing Operation
When the pressure differential reaches the determined value (7-10 psi), the filter should be
cleaned. Water continues to flow through the filter during the cleaning process.
- Opening the flushing valve (4) allows water to flow out of the filter
- Suction occurs through the nozzles (6) which vacuums the debris from the screen (1) and
out the drain port
- Turning the handle (3) slowly rotates the dirt collector (2) resulting in full scanning of the
screen by the nozzles. Slower rotation cleans the screen more efficiently.
This combination of rotation and linear movement cleans the whole internal screen surface.
The flushing cycle takes about 10 seconds.
