Durco PVC Tubular Backwash Filter Systems Are Ideal For Continuous Filtration Of Mildly Aggressive Process Streams

PVC Tubular Filters For Continuous Filtration Of Water & Mildly Aggressive Liquids At High Flow Rates, Compatible With Your Current PVC Piping & With Automatic Backwash Options

Durco PVC Tubular Backwash Filters are the perfect choice for water and mildly aggressive applications where operating cost is a concern. All PVC construction, a wide variety of filter media, multiple-tube configurations, automation options and sub-micron removal capability provide virtually unlimited flexibility in applications usually limited to cartridge and bag filters.

Durco PVC Tubular Backwash Filters have reusable, self-cleaning filter elements for lower operating costs. Multiple tubular filter stations allow continuous filtration at high flow rates and optional automatic backwashing capability.

The Durco PVC1 Single Tube Tubular Backwash Filter System is designed for a variety of industrial applications requiring manual operation with internal backwash.

The Durco PVC2 Dual Tube Tubular Backwash Filter System permits continuous filtration with internal backwash. In most applications one tubular filter operates on stream while the other filter is on standby or off-stream to allow backwash cleaning or inspection.

The Durco PVC3 Multiple Tube Tubular Backwash Filter System allows for flow capacities up to 5,000 gpm by manifolding multiple tubular filters in parallel operation.

This sophisticated tubular backwash filter system can provide continuous, uninterrupted flow with intermittent cleaning of the filter elements by automatic backwashing. Several manifold arrangements can permit backwashing with the process stream (internal) and/or another stream (external). Backwash losses can be controlled by an optional Backwash Conservation System.

Optional features also allow PVC Tubular Backwash Filters to provide the solids as a dry cake for discharge, and full automation packages completely eliminate the need for operator attention.

Durco PVC Series Tubular Backwash Filters are designed specifically to have a compact footprint to minimize required floorspace, be easily expandable, and provide ultra-reliable continuous process filtration in mildly aggressive applications. With a variety of backwash self cleaning options, they can handle high flow rates, retaining constant flow even while cleaning. Optional PLC controlled units require no operator involvement.
