Water Filtration Systems
Industrial Water Filtration
Process water filtration designed around flow rate, pressure and downtime, from boiler and cooling pre-treatment to wash and process water.
How we approach industrial water filtration
Industrial filtration is designed around the process rather than taste: the flow rate, operating pressure, the contaminants that affect the product or the equipment, and how much downtime the plant can tolerate. Typical uses include pre-treatment for boilers and cooling systems, wash water and process water.
Larger sites often need multimedia or bag filters rather than cartridges, automatic backwashing, and duplex housings so one side can be serviced while the other stays in use. We start with a water analysis and the plant's flow and pressure figures.
What the specification covers
Industrial systems start from the process, not the filter.
Process first
Treatment is specified against what the process or equipment needs.
High flow
Multimedia and bag filters handle volumes cartridges cannot.
Continuous running
Duplex housings keep water flowing during servicing.
FAQs
Questions before we quote
What information do you need for an industrial quote?
A water analysis, the required flow rate and pressure, what the water is used for, and photos of the plant room or connection point.
Can filtration be serviced without stopping production?
Yes. With duplex housings or a bypass arrangement, one filter is serviced while the other stays in use.
Do industrial systems need automatic backwashing?
Larger media filters usually do. Backwashing on a timer or a pressure trigger keeps the media clean without manual work.
