Disc Filter System

This new series of Disc Filter Systems is designed to provide exceptional particle removal at low cost without sacrificing performance. Constructed of Polypro, PVC or CPVC, the systems offer flow ratings up to 8,000-gal/hr and a filtration surface area of up to 5,600-in.² According to the manufacturer, the use of horizontal discs in the filtration process can increase volume, reduce contamination, and lower filtration media disposal costs.

The manufacturer states that the filter disc pre-coats readily and uniformly, which means that it is working in conjunction with gravity. As a result, the disc is more efficient in particle retention than most cartridges with the same micron rating. In addition, the interlocking horizontal discs can ensure positive sealing and are guaranteed not to by-pass the contaminants that lead to surface roughness and rejected parts, according to the manufacturer.

In addition, the use of disk packs can serve as an environmentally friendly tool in filtration. A standard 55-gal waste drum can hold approximately 75 tubes measuring 10-in. each. The same drum can hold several thousand discs.

System features also include:

• All CAMAC filter systems are supplied with a plastic base. Casters are available for easy movement.
• Units are available with slurry tank systems complete with interconnecting valves, piping and fittings.
• Horizontal centrifugal pumps are equipped with non-metallic, bellows type seals or optional water-cooled seals.
• Vertical immersion pumps are seal-free and self-priming.
• Magnetic drive pumps employ a completely seal-less design with an orbital magnetic coupling. O-ring design.
