Automatic Screen Filters

Self-cleaning filtration systems that protect equipment, reduce maintenance, and keep your systems running continuously.

Automatic Screen Filters (ABW Series)

Manufacturers design automatic backwash screen filters to deliver continuous filtration without interrupting system flow. These systems use a self-cleaning mechanism to remove debris, eliminating the need for manual cleaning or cartridge replacement.

Key Features:

  • Fully automatic self-cleaning operation
  • Continuous flow during the backwash cycle
  • Minimal water usage for cleaning
  • Durable construction for long-term reliability

Best For:

  • Cooling tower filtration
  • HVAC systems
  • Commercial and industrial water systems

Multi-Tube Filtration Systems (MTF Series)

Designers engineer multi-tube filtration systems for higher flow capacities and more demanding applications. By utilizing multiple filtration elements within a single unit, these systems handle larger volumes while maintaining consistent performance.

Key Features:

  • Multi-tube design for increased filtration capacity
  • Handles higher flow rates and heavier debris loads
  • Efficient backwash cleaning system
  • Designed for large-scale applications

Best For:

  • Industrial process water
  • Large commercial facilities
  • Systems with high particulate loads

Low-Pressure Automatic Filters (LPF Series)

Low-pressure automatic screen filters are ideal for systems where maintaining pressure is critical. These units provide effective filtration while operating efficiently at lower pressures.

Key Features:

  • Designed for low-pressure applications
  • Energy-efficient operation
  • Automatic self-cleaning functionality
  • Compact footprint for flexible installation

Best For:

  • Systems with limited available pressure
  • Retrofit applications
  • Facilities requiring energy-efficient filtration solutions

Skid-Mounted Filtration Systems

Skid-mounted systems integrate filtration with pumping equipment into a single, pre-engineered package. Manufacturers designed these systems for rapid deployment and simplified installation, making them ideal for turnkey solutions.

Key Features:

  • Integrated pump and filtration system
  • Pre-packaged and ready for installation
  • Reduces field installation time and complexity
  • Designed for cooling tower and process applications

Best For:

  • Cooling tower filtration systems
  • Retrofit projects
  • Facilities needing a complete, plug-and-play solution

Applications

Applications where continuous operation, minimal maintenance, and equipment protection are critical use automatic screen filters. These systems help remove suspended solids and debris that can damage downstream equipment and reduce system efficiency.

Common Applications:

  • Cooling Towers: Prevent fouling and improve heat transfer efficiency
  • HVAC Systems: Protect pumps, valves, and heat exchangers
  • Industrial Water Systems: Maintain consistent water quality in process applications
  • Commercial Facilities: Reduce maintenance and extend equipment life
  • Data Centers: Support reliable cooling system performance

Why It Matters:

  • Eliminates manual filter cleaning and cartridge replacement
  • Reduces downtime and maintenance labor
  • Protects critical equipment from debris and fouling
  • Improves overall system efficiency and performance
