Pressure Sand Filter

Pressure Sand Filter is highly recommended for the removal of suspended solids & undissolved impurities like dust particles & heavy metals etc. Pressure Sand Filter reduces turbidity. Pressure Sand Filter is an ideal solution for the systems with high sediment, silt, sand, and turbidity. The sand filters are specially designed to take care of the range of suspended impurities. Our unique design ensures the maximum utilization of the surface area, lesser pressure drop across the pressure bed and effective elimination of the impurities.

Sand filtration is frequently used and very robust method to remove suspended solids from water. The filtration medium consists of a multiple layer of sand with a variety in size and specific gravity. Sand filters can be supplied in different sizes and materials both hand operated or fully automatically.

The Pressure Sand Filter provided by the company has a mild steel pressure vessel that has external valves for controlling the flow of water during treatment process. The media of our Pressure Sand Filter has layers of crushed gravel and graded pebbles. An inlet distributor is equipped in it that directs the inflow of raw water upwards towards the top-dished end. Then the filtered water goes through bottom collecting system that controls the assists in the cleaning of the filter.

This Pressure Sand Filter uses coagulant solution that is dosed simply or using chemical dosing system. The company offers Pressure Sand Filters that have their internal surface painted with anticorrosive paint or epoxy based paint. Flow indicators are given as optional extras for controlling and measuring flow of water. Pressure Gauges are also provided at the inlet and outlet. An orifice board is fitted in the drain for controlling flows. Unlike conventional sand filters, this Pressure Sand Filter uses a special media that permits flow velocities of water nearly three times.
