Easily Removable motor lid assembly with flushing point for cleaning in food applications. Flow rate capability up to 35 m3/h. Low maintenance, easy to operate, and continuous cleaning. HeroFilters self-cleaning filters come with a removable motor, lid, and scraper assembly which makes it easy to clean, sanitise or replace wedge wire elements. This is also useful for food or batch applications where the unit must be cleaned after each batch. In addition, a flushing port is provided to clean the assembly in situ.
Top mounted electric motor continuously rotates a scraper on the surface of an internal wedge wire element to remove dirt. This eliminates the need for backwashing and makes these filters easy to use and maintain. A manual drain valve can be used to remove the dirt from the vessel at regular intervals. Alternatively, an optional pneumatically operated valve with a timer can be used to remove dirt automatically at timed intervals.
