T1000-TPX

 

The T1000-TPX is a liquid/solid separator and automatic self-cleaning filter system designed to remove Ultra High and Variable Total Suspended Solids (TSS) from a fluid stream. Each filter unit contains a motor-driven, spiral-shaped brush that continuously cleans collected debris from inside the filter element. Solids collect at the bottom of the filter housing to be expelled through an automatic purge valve or a continuous concentrate stream. The system does not require high pressures to operate and performs at very low differential pressure. No backwash, cross flow or booster pumps required.

Performance Specification

The spiral shaped brush is designed to rotate continuously, so there is always less than 1 psi head loss across the filter screen. Flow through the filter unit is limited by both solids loading and hydraulic loading on the screen. Flow rates listed below assume a viscosity of 1.0 cP and TSS up to 1000 mg/l. The system can handle higher TSS values with corrections to the flow rate. The control system can monitor the solids build up in the housing and open the purge valve when necessary. The unit will include a 5 psi cracking pressure check valve on the filtered outlet and a pinch valve on the purge outlet. Operating pressure in the 5 to 20 psi range is optimal, though the unit is capable of operating at 150 psi.

 

Applications of the Model SWT T1000-TPX

  • TSS and BOD Reduction
  • Recycling of Secondary Wastewater
  • Protection of Monitoring Equipment
  • Nozzle Protection
  • Bearing and Seal Protection
  • Wastewater Filtration
  • River Water Cooling Filtration

Flow Rates for TSS up to 1000 ppm

Note: The higher the solids, the higher the perceived apparent viscosity. At TSS above 1000 ppm, lower flow rates are required to avoid fouling of the filter screen
