Drum filter Red Label PRO XL

HOW DOES A DRUM FILTER WORK?

The filter mainly consists of a tank in which is housed a rotating drum: this drum is coated with a 70 micron (0.07 mm) filter membrane on its periphery.

The dirty water from the basin is directed into the interior of the drum and, to leave this filter, the water must pass through the filter membrane.

The water in the basin, which is freed of particles, comes out of the filter and is directed to biological filtration.

As the dirty water passes through the drum, the particles settle out, blocking the small holes in the membrane which gradually clogs.

The passage of water is slowed down, causing a difference in level between downstream and upstream of the sieve.

At this time, the detection system starts a drum cleaning cycle. From this moment, the drum turns very slowly and the nozzles placed on the upper part (external side of the drum) project water jets on the filter membrane: under the pressure of the water, the smallest dirt is expelled from the filter membrane.

This dirt is collected in a gutter and directed to the sewer. The upstream / downstream water level is restored until the next cycle.

This cleaning is minimalist: it only intervenes when necessary and the drum only rotates.

ADVANTAGES

There are many and the first is obvious: good filtration is based on the principle of removing as quickly as possible a maximum of particles and extracting them from the water in the pool so that they can no longer harm.

A "normal" filter can only retain what it can, and the waste it retains degrades in the water. With a drum, this is not the case, the biological filtration is less strained, which in many cases makes it possible to reduce its volume.

Finished the chore of cleaning the pre-filter with grid or the brushes, a drum filter is self-cleaning. Let's be honest, this filter still requires a minimum of attention because it is a machine, and therefore some minor interventions are to be expected periodically, but nothing binding.

Remember that a filter is never too large: the rinsing frequency will be comfortable (3 to 4 rinses per hour in summer for ten per day in winter). On the other hand, a filter that is too small will consume more water because it will have to rinse more often. We are at your disposal to guide you in your choice.

Characteristics

TRANSPORT

The price of transporting this item cannot be reasonably calculated in advance due to the numerous variables: location, weight, volume, ordering additional items, possible discount etc.
Rather than applying a package which is often very penalizing, we prefer to calculate the price, on a case by case basis.
The price of the port is decreasing: the more value you load on your pallet, the more you give us the means to lower the price of the port (or even to make it free).
A price offer follows your order: you have the choice to accept or decline.
If in the meantime, a payment has been made, the refund will be made as soon as your cancellation email is received.
You also have the possibility to consult us before ordering.
