Custom Self-Cleaning Wedge Wire Filters

Oct. 15, 2024

A wedge wire self-cleaning filter is a specialized strainer made from high-quality V-shaped wedge wires and support wires. It is designed for automatic self-cleaning filter housings, effectively capturing suspended solids and particles in fluids.

This process reduces turbidity and removes impurities, thereby enhancing water quality through continuous self-cleaning.

Wedge Wire Screen Key Features:

1. Constructed with durable materials for high pressure and corrosion resistance.

2. Uniform slot size ensures efficient filtration without clogging.

3. Offers a large filter area for optimal filtration efficiency.

Custom Self-Cleaning Wedge Wire Filters

Applications:

Widely used in petroleum, paper and pulp, chemical, natural gas, food, and water treatment industries.

Ideal for various applications including boiler water filtration, petrochemical water filtration, beer filtration, and more.

Oil & Gas: Completion fluid filtration.

Food: Filtration of fermentation broth, chocolate liquor, honey, etc.

Water Treatment: Filtration of surface sewage, cooling water, etc.

Working Principle

Liquid enters the self-cleaning filter and passes through the wedge wire screen, where contaminants gradually accumulate on the inner surface, causing a gradual increase in differential pressure. Once the preset pressure limit is reached, the control system initiates the self-cleaning process.

During this process, a small portion of the filtered liquid returns to the filter body. A motor-driven brush (scraper) rotates to remove the deposited contaminants from the screen surface while a drain valve opens for discharge. The entire self-cleaning cycle typically lasts 12–18 seconds, maintaining continuous filtration with minimal flow rate fluctuation.
