How it applies to the water system
As retained material accumulates, the pressure loss increases and cleaning becomes necessary. Manual, semi-automatic and automatic cleaning arrangements require different operator involvement.
Selection and operating considerations
Screen grade, active area and rated flow must suit the application. Check the manufacturer data rather than treating every filter with the same connection size as equivalent.
Planning the requirement in Sabah
A workshop, commercial building or irrigation site in Sabah may need particle protection at different points in the water line. Identify the component being protected and its filtration requirement, then review the space and cleaning access available around the proposed filter.
Information to prepare
- Downstream equipment filtration requirement
- Flow, pressure and representative debris load
- Screen access, isolation and discharge facilities
What should I send SWFI for this requirement in Sabah?
