Self Cleaning Filter vs Automatic Backwash Filter

The two terms are often used together, but the cleaning mechanism, screen structure and application conditions can differ.

Self cleaning filter

Brush or scraper based cleaning removes captured solids from the screen without stopping flow in many industrial applications.

Backwash systems reverse flow or use suction scanning to clean the filter element based on pressure differential or time.

Compare suspended solids, particle type, required accuracy, pressure loss and available drain water.

Filtration Equipment

DS series electric brush filter uses motor-driven brushes and differential pressure control for automatic cleaning without stopping flow.

Filtration Equipment

Automatic water filters reduce manual maintenance by combining filtration, pressure monitoring and automatic cleaning control.

Filtration Equipment

Automatic backwash filters remove suspended solids and clean the filter element through timed or pressure differential backwashing.
