Compact Backflusher
Backflushing Strainers - Compact Type
The Plenty Filters compact type of backflush strainers has been specially designed
for use where an automatic cleaning filter is required to ensure process continuity
without manual labour.
These filters incorporate a proven cleaning mechanism which has been developed to provide a high level of cleaning efficiency with very low product loss.
The units are made in cast iron or stainless steel, which allows the standard design to be used in a variety of process applications.
The straining element is made from stainless steel, and has been designed to give a long service life and is supplied in a full range of sizes to suit most applications.
Applications
Designed especially for applications on water systems the compact type of backflush
strainers can be installed in process plant making use of river, lake, canal,
well and seawater for nozzle protection, cooling, quenching and various other
requirements.
The compact backflusher is supplied to automatically clean when pressure loss rises to 5PSIG (0.35 BARG).
