Amiad Plastic Filters

General
With a variety of filter elements, Amiad all purpose plastic filters are made for wide range of filtering applications, filtration degrees, and are easy to install and maintain. They are constructed from high quality engineered-plastic materials providing excellent mechanical strength, durability and chemical resistance. Amiad plastic filters need no tools for dismantling or removing the filter element from the filter housing for rinsing; Visual monitoring the status of the filter element without disrupting the water flow is easily done with Amiad s innovative clogging indicator connected to the filter pressure check points. s Amiad plastic filters can be upgraded to semi-automatic operation by adding one of Amiad exclusive Brushaway or s Scanaway assemblies.

Filter Elements
Amiad supplies a variety of filter elements for its plastic filters that cover a wide range of flow rates, filtration degrees and applications.

Screen Elements: (1)

These screen elements are constructed of molded plastic ribs that support a stainless steel weave-wire or weaved nylon screen for filtration degrees of 800 to 22 micron.

Perforated Stainless Steel Elements: (2) Suitable for coarse filtration (straining) between 3,500 and 800 micron. Disc Elements: (3)
TThe disc elements are designed for effective removal of organic substances. The elements are constructed using engineered plastic discs that are stacked onto a telescopic core. The discs are grooved on both sides and intersect to form the filtration element when compressed.

(1)

(2)

(3)

The effective filtration area is comprised of both the outside surface and the channels formed by the intersecting grooves. Suspended organic particles adhere to the grooved surface adding depth to the filtration process. Cleaning the disc element is made simple by the unique design of the telescopic core which allows the discs to separate during the cleaning process while maintaining perfect sealing when the element is in the filter housing.

Filtration Degrees Available

The following table lists the various filter elements of Amiad Plastic Filters line and the optional filtration degrees for s each filter element. For ease of operation and maintenance the filter elements are color coded. Please consult your dealer for the most suitable filter element for your application requirements.
