• Available with exclusive features for semi-automatic cleaning.

Filter Elements
A variety of filter elements and filtration degrees are available for Amiad's steel filters.

Screen Elements
The screen elements are constructed of molded plastic ribs that support a stainless steel weave wire screen with filtration degrees from 50 to 3500 micron.

For pre-filtration (also called straining) between 800 and 3500 micron, Amiad offers perforated stainless steel screens. Suspended solids accumulate on the inside surface of the screen. The screen can be easily removed from the housing to be cleaned manually.

Water flows through these elements from the inside-out so that inorganic suspended solids primarily accumulate at the lower end of the element and can be removed by means of a flush valve. The screen elements are especially suitable for separating inorganic particles and creating a very low head loss.

The different filtration degrees are color-coded. The cylinder incorporates two O-rings to ensure perfect sealing inside the filter housing.

Disc Elements
Steel elements are constructed from plastic discs that are stacked onto a telescopic core. The discs are grooved on both sides. These grooves intersect to form the filtration element when compressed on the core. The disc element provides especially effective retention of organic matter.

The effective filtration area is comprised of both the outside surface and the channels formed by the intersected grooves. Suspended organic particulate adheres to the grooved surface.

Cleaning the disc element is made simple by the design of the telescopic core, which allows the discs to separate during the cleaning process. Two O-rings allow perfect sealing inside the filter housing.
