Forward filtration cycle Fluid filtration is carried out under pressure of typically 40 500 psig with solids building up on the outer diameter of the filter discs. The filtered effluent flows through the labyrinth and exits through the center of the discs candle.
Backwash cycle When backwash initiates, the filter discs separate and the accumulated solids are dislodged and forced out of the filter discs. The solids exit at the bottom of the vessel. The filter is fully rejuvenated in a backwash cycle of minutes duration.

Disc element The thermoplastic round discs are designed with unique micro-paths on the surface to provide absolute fluid flow path when stacked together. This ensures that the fluid flows only through the fine labyrinth assuring of absolute filtration efficiency.
Discs candle assembly The discs are stacked together to form a candle. This candle is a permanent with no disposal requirements.
Cell-pack Multiple candles are assembled together to form a cell-pack which provide for the required fluid filtration flow rates. The cell-pack is easily lifted out of the filter vessel for cleaning and overhaul.
