The ACF was developed as a special filter for protection of pumps, pipe systems and process equipment against big particles.
The filter has a special construction and combines flowpatterns and turbulence for cleaning of a wedge wire filter-element.
The filtration direction is from inside to outside.
The cleaning is by the liquid itself and can be made manually or automatic.
The cleaning cycle only takes 5 seconds. When the solids are heavy or sticky, the separating mechanism can be assisted by a scraper mechanism.
A pneumatic cylinder moves a mechanical scraper over a wedge wire filter element in an axial direction. The difficult backwashable dirt as there are: fibres, flakes of granulat or organic waste, will be shoved to the outlet and drained away through the flush valve.
