Multi Cyclone
Multi Cyclone Centrifugal Water Filter
The MultiCyclone is a filtration device that is capable of saving water and reducing filter maintenance.
The MultiCyclone works on the basis of centrifugal water filtration.
The MultiCyclone has no moving parts to wear and tear and no filter media to clean or replace.
The MultiCyclone works by ?
Incoming water is guided by a diverter plate so that it enters multiple hydro cyclones tangentially, generating a strong centrifugal effect. This spins the sediment out to the hydro cyclone's wall and then spirals it down to the sediment sump, while the cleansed water spirals upwards. The accumulation of sediment can be visibly monitored through the MultiCyclone's clear sediment pump. It is cleared by simply opening the purge valve. Only 15 litres of water is discharged to clean the unit of sediment.
The MultiCyclone is ideal as a pre-filter to extend the life of your excisting filter. The filtration efficiency of the MultiCyclone was tested by feeding 5 to 80 micron dust particles through the MultiCyclone and analyzing the percentage of dust particles trapped in the sediment bowl. The laboratory test revealed that the Multi Cyclone was effective in filtering particles sized 40 to 80 microns.
The unit works together with a sand, cartridge, bead or DE filter to polish the water. It allows the installation of finer filtration systems, such as cartridge filters with finer cartridges and the sand filters with finer filter media. The water ends up clearer with less up keep.
The unit is supplied with both 2"/63mm quick connect unions making this unit ideal for new installations and retrofit market. Minimum flow is 3m3/h, max. flow is 30m3/h. Max. pressure is 4 bar.
The MultiCyclone must be installed after the pump.
How the Multi-Cyclone Works
Solids laden water enters
16 hydro-cyclones tangentially. The cyclone generate a strong centrifugal effect. Fine sediment is spun out to the hydro-cyclone's wall and then spirals down into the sediment bowl. Filtered water migrates towards the center of the hydro-cyclone chamber where the flow reverses and spins the filtered water upward through the outlet. Install the Multi-Cyclone after the pump and before the filter.
