RWH3000 Rain Water Filter
PROVIDES CLEAN RAINWATER FOR INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS -SUITABLE FOR ROOF AREAS UP TO 3,000m²
RWH filters can be used where rainwater from the roof is channelled through a horizontal underground pipe.
The RWH filters and diverts rainwater to a storage tank or cistern. Leaves and other large debris are washed through to a drain or soakaway.
Rainwater enters the inlet connection in the side of the RWH filter. The inlet is designed to swirl the water around the surface of the stainless steel filter below. The rainwater is drawn through the vertical mesh walls of the fine filter by adhesion, then collected and fed through the outlet to the storage tank.
Debris and particles too large for the filter (particles greater than 380 microns) are flushed through to the drain outlet by the action of water flowing down the surface of the filter. More than 90% of the rainwater entering the WFF is filtered and collected by this principle.
There are no restrictions or obstructions on which debris can collect. The full crosssection of the rainwater drainage system is maintained throughout the filter so that excess rainwater is led directly to the storm drains or soakaway. This is especially important in hail storms and torrential rainfall. Even in such extreme cases much of the filtered water is transferred to the storage tank.
