Rotorflush Filterpumps

Traditional pumps are fitted with a coarse inlet screen which will only keep out larger particles. If there is a high volume of suspended solids in the water, the pump will block and eventually become starved of water; this can cause expensive pump damage.

The self cleaning filter on the Rotorflush Filterpump is designed to stop this type of intake blockage happening as the filter is completely cleaned every ½ second. This keeps the solids away from the intake filter and therefore allows the pump to operate at an optimum rate.

► Removes solids down to 50 microns.
► Pressure up to 10 bars.
► Flow rates to 4 litres per second.
► Pump and Self Cleaning filter in one unit.
► Ease of Installation.
► Reduced Capital, Installation and Maintenance costs.

How Does This Work?
The self cleaning part of the filter consists of a pump impeller fitted inside a rotating housing that has two angled jets. The main flow of water is through the filter screen and up into the main pump. Some of the filtered water is sucked into the central impeller and ejected out through the rotating jets. These angled jets rotate at 60 rpm and direct water back through the filter, removing any detritus that is beginning to block the screen.

Please Note: Three Phase models, and models without a float switch fitted are available upon request. Please contact us for details.
