Backwash Filter Cartridges

During operation, contaminants accumulate on the filter surface. A periodic reverse flow of clean liquid or air is applied to dislodge and flush away collected particles, restoring flow without opening the housing. This enables continuous 24/7 operation with minimal manual intervention.

Cleaning frequency depends on the application and contaminant load. Automated backwash systems can clean on a timer or triggered by pressure differential across the filter. Typical intervals range from every few hours to daily. No need to open the housing for each clean cycle.

Select based on the particle size you need to remove and acceptable pressure drop. General guidelines: 100–500 µm for coarse pre-filtration, 25–100 µm for fine filtration, below 25 µm for precision polishing. Provide your application details and we will recommend the appropriate slot size.

Yes. SS316L backwash filters with stainless steel basket construction handle temperatures up to 400℃. For specialized high-temperature or chloride-rich corrosive environments, Hastelloy or titanium alloys are available.

Standard connections: 222, 226, DOE (Double Open End), and threaded types (M20–M42). Connection type must match your housing. We can advise on compatibility based on your housing model and pressure requirements.
