Built for the dirty jobs
COST · up to $1M a year
Wood panel & board plants
Wash and process water loaded with fibre, resin and grit.
PRODUCTIVITY · no clogged lines
Metals & steel
Mill scale and heavy sludge out of rolling and processing water.
PRODUCTIVITY · no unplanned stops
Food & agri processing
Scale and solids out of process water, around the clock.
ENVIRONMENT · less water, less chemical
Process water reuse
Take the solids out so the water goes back into the process.

How it works
Gravity does the work
Four steps, repeated around the clock. Nobody touches the filter.
Filtering
Even distribution
The liquid enters a header box that spreads it evenly across the media.
Solids captured
Held between two sealing wheels, the media catches the solids. Gravity pulls clean liquid through.
Self-cleaning
Automatic cycle
As the level rises, a float starts the cycle: fresh media rolls in, loaded media rolls out to the bin.
Clean liquid back
Filtered liquid collects in the tank below and returns to your process.

- Water-tight seal wheels — Hold the media edges — nothing bypasses.
- Inlet + header box — Spreads the flow evenly across the media.
- Easy-load media tray — A fresh roll drops in from the side.
- Clean-liquid tank — Filtered liquid returns to your process.
$600,000 a year saved — after 15 other makers said no.
A pulp and paper plant switched from city water to canal water — 450 GPM.
