Cloth Media Pressure Filter

The AquaDrum® Pressure Series cloth media filter is a pressurized vessel consisting of a perforated, vertically oriented drum utilizing OptiFiber® pile cloth filtration media. This pressurized filtration system is engineered to effectively maximize solids removal from water and wastewater. The unit is ideally suited to fit into pressurized systems and avoids breaking pressure and repumping.

How It Works

Each AquaDrum unit is equipped with an independent backwash and solids removal system. Backwash occurs by simply opening a valve without the need for a dedicated backwash pump. The system is controlled via differential pressure.

Features & Advantages
