Vessels & Flow rates
Full range of filter vessels: Our Filter Vessels are manufactured in 304, 316 Stainless Steel or GRP, depending upon the application. Maximum flow rates of 20 gallons per metre per foot squared; maximum figures calibrated at h20 temperature of 30 degrees centigrade:

Issues with Existing Filtration Technology
Membrane filters currently on the market are very effective for the removal of small particles from liquid but tend to clog easily and are therefore unsuitable for the removal of small contaminants from large volumes of liquid.
On the other side Depth Filters (e.g. rapid sand filters) are more suitable for the filtration of large volumes of water but are not sufficiently capable of eliminating oocysts such as cryptosporidium (which is between 4 and 10 microns in size).
Flow rates (volume) vs. Effectiveness of filter
The larger the volume, the less filtering technology is available to address the smaller contaminants. In environments such as hospitals, disaster zones and for the general water supply, volume is a key requirement.
New Filters
Each system can clarify suspensions up to contaminate concentrations of 500mg/litre while giving a final filtrate quality of less than 0.5NTU and remove will extract and retain over 99.954% of particle counts down to 0.2 micron without addition of polyelectrolyte or coagulant aid
Power options include:
- 240 V ac
- 24V dc
- 12V dc
- Manual – hand-pump
Typical Applications:
- Trade effluent, waste water
- Developing world, disaster zones
- Tertiary waste water treatment
- Surface & ground waters
- Bore hole water
- Public water supplies
- Pre-treatments (RO, desalination, industrial processes)
- Rain & grey water recycling
- Process water
- Process liquors and brine
Maintenance & Technical support
Filter Clear provides parts and maintenance support with new filters. We also have a design and technical support team to assist customers to understand the appropriate units and solutions for their requirements.
