How it applies to the water system
Record the source and sample water under representative operating conditions. A river intake after rain may require a different pretreatment arrangement from a relatively stable storage-tank supply.
Selection and operating considerations
Consider grit separation or media pretreatment where appropriate, then confirm the disc grade, working pressure and available backwash supply for the selected model.
Planning the requirement in Sabah
For irrigation intakes, hotel landscape systems or industrial pretreatment in Sabah, the source and downstream equipment define the filtration duty. Include normal and peak flow, the existing pump arrangement and access to a cleaning-water supply in the project brief.
Information to prepare
- Source-water analysis and suspended-solids loading
- Required disc grade and normal/peak flow
- Operating pressure, backwash supply and drain route
What should I send SWFI for this requirement in Sabah?
Send the site location, source-water information, operating flow and pressure, and the equipment model or photographs where available. SWFI is based in Kota Kinabalu and can review the requested supply or service scope against the site duty.
Discuss your water-system requirement with SWFI
Sabah Water Filter Industries (SWFI) is based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Share your site details for equipment selection, sourcing or maintenance enquiries. The proposed model and scope depend on the actual water conditions and installation requirements.
