1700 Series and 2630 Disc Filters

High performance, superior filtration. Designed, engineered and manufactured to achieve the highest standards of quality and efficiency of operation. Series 1700 and 2630 disc filters have several features for greater filtration capacity and effective protection of the entire irrigation system.

Applications: 3" disc filter
  • Irrigation
  • Municipal water supply
Features: 
  • Grooved plastic discs stacked together to form the filtering elements
  • Large filtration area with a grooved disc structure design.
  • Sediments accumulate on the outer face of the stacked disc and clean water flows through the stacked discs out of the filter
  • Disc elements provide in depth filtration to retain organic matter
  • Hydraulic pressure during the filtering process causes fastening of the disc and allows for efficient filtering4" disc filter
  • Closing of the tightening nut without pressure leaves enough space between the disc to allow for a good cleaning when an automatic back flush is performed
  • Available with manual drain valve located at the bottom of the filter and with two pressure testing ports (1700)
  • Series 1700 Available with horizontal inlet and vertical outlet. 2" threaded, 3", 4" flange and 2630 horizontal inlet and outlet
  • The filter can be cleaned manually or automatically
  • Low friction loss
  • Range of disc: 60 to 150 mesh
  • Discs have excellent resistance to most common chemicals
  • Color coded replacement discs
  • Suitable for all irrigation uses and industrial application
  • Large filtration area allows long intervals between cleanings
  • Easy maintenance: the disc can be extracted for easy cleaning
  • Non corrosive material
*** Series 1700 disk filter body have a 100 micron extra durable polyester coating applied electrostatically and oven-cured on a zinc phosphate layer for maximum anti-corrosion.
