FM Filter

FM Filter is a pressurized up-flow rapid filter system using low density floated media, performing SS removal. FM Filter drastically reduces the amount of wash water during the operation, resulting in significant improvement of filtered water production rate in the filtration facility.

Features

  1. Amount of wash water reduced by approximately three quarters
    Our unique cleaning mechanism utilizes the difference in specific gravity of water and media in the filter vessel. Water initially in the vessel is also used to wash the filter media. This contributes to the total amount of wash water to be drastically reduced in comparison with conventional sand filters.
  2. Low-cost and space-saving system
    FM filter does not need large-capacity wash water pumps, associated piping and large capacity tank to keep wash water. This contributes to achieving lower cost and a smaller footprint.
  3. Stable filter operation by combination of easily washable filter media and strong mechanical mixer
    The filter was specifically developed for easy cleaning by mechanical agitator and is able to achieve stable production of filtered water.
