FlowTex Drum Filter is a simple, inexpensive, cloth media filter designed for package plant and other applications with flows up to 100,000 gallons per day. FlowTex filters provide for outside-to-inside flow and incorporate a rotating cloth filter drum and a fixed vacuum assembly for backwashing. The FlowTex drum provides approximately 20 ft2 of filtration surface area. The drum filter can be configured as a clarifier insert or installed in a stand-alone tank.
FlowTex is a proven concept in cloth media filtration
Influent enters the filter tank or clarifier and completely surrounds the drum. Suspended solids are removed as flow passes through the cloth filter media. Solids accumulating on the cloth will gradually restrict the flow of liquid through the cloth causing the water level to rise. When the level reaches a predetermined set point the backwash process begins.
The filter will produce reuse quality effluent
