Description:
The Atlas Filtri Hydra Big is the ultimate sediment strainer filter, with self-cleaning functionality – Ideal for primary sediment filtration for municipal water, rainwater, borehole, dam & river water treatment for domestic, irrigation or process applications.
The HYDRA BIG self-cleaning filter with backwash system gives the system maximum protection thanks to its high-level performance.
Cleaning operations are carried out manually by the valve at the filter bottom opening up: in just a few seconds, the reverse flow of the water ejects all the impurities deposited on the cartridge surface, restoring the filter to its initial conditions.
The effectiveness of the self-cleaning process is guaranteed by the special anti-backflow device which prevents water from going back to the filter.
HYDRA BIG is equipped with a special washable filtering cartridge: RLH BIG (polyester mesh), available with a filtration degree of 50 and 90 microns.
The maximum flow rate ranges from 6000L/h with 1” models, to 15000L/h with 1.5” models.
