Gefa TYPE ACF Coarsefiltration

he ACF was developed as a special filter for protection of pumps, pipe systems and process equipment against big particles. The filter has a special construction and combines flowpatterns and turbulence for cleaning of a wedge wire filter-element. The filtration direction is from inside to outside. The cleaning is by the liquid itself and can be made manually or automatic. The cleaning cycle only takes 5 seconds. When the solids are heavy or sticky, the separating mechanism can be assisted by a scraper mechanism. A pneumatic cylinder moves a mechanical scraper over a wedge wire filter element in an axial direction. The difficult backwashable dirt as there are: fibres, flakes of granulat or organic waste, will be shoved to the outlet and drained away through the flush valve.
