Amber

Amber submersible filterpumps are general purpose submersible pumps with a built-in self-cleaning intake. They can screen dirty water as they pump - the self-cleaning intake protects against blocking.

They offer a maximum of 20 US GPM for the smaller filterpumps and a maximum of 50 US GPM for the largest.  Maximum head ranges from 100 ft to 160 ft.

Amber filterpumps are medium – high head, close coupled multistage pumps ideal for domestic and light industrial applications.

Here are some typical uses of Amber filterpumps:

• Irrigation
• Domestic Heat pumps
• Screening process water for re-use

Amber filterpumps can be fitted with:

These filterpumps are ideal for screening and pumping raw water for irrigation and industry, small open loop water source heat pump installations, screening industrial process water and more.  For best performance, make sure that there is good clearance around the filterpump mesh so that back-washed debris can disperse, and that the filterpump is above any silt or sludge that may accumulate.

The smallest weigh in at 20 lbs, the largest at 41 lbs. Amber filterpumps can be suspended in tanks, sumps or ponds. They can be suspended from floats or buoys, or raised and lowered on a guide-rail system.

Rotorflush Filters Ltd are happy to advise and comment on siting and installation.

There is no such thing as an entirely maintenance free filter but Amber filterpumps, in keeping with all Rotorflush filtration products, are designed for low maintenance hassle-free use.  

The nylon mesh inserts are easily replaced, and stainless mesh can be cleaned with a pressure washer. There is a trade off between mesh size and maintenance - how often depends on your mesh size and what you are filtering.

As a minimum we recommend the following:

• Mesh up to 115 micron should be cleaned or replaced every 1000 hours of use
• Mesh up to 315 micron should be cleaned or replaced every 5000 hours of use
• Coarse mesh that is 1 mm or bigger should be inspected and cleaned every 6 - 12 months

Full maintenance guidelines can be found in the instruction manual available from the download link above.

Rotorflush Filters Ltd offers a selection of accessories and spares for your Amber filterpump.

• Spare Mesh - nylon mesh needs to be replaced periodically and spare stainless steel mesh is available if required.
• Spare cleaning jets - the self-cleaning intake cleaning jets can be replaced if worn or damaged.
• Cos phi load monitoring is required for all three-phase filterpumps. Rotorflush supplies Nastec Pilot starter panels for load monitoring. Nastec starter panels have an additional digital input, useful if using a float switch.  Single phase starter panels are also available.

All our products are guaranteed for a year. However, as a condition of our guarantee, and to protect against dry-running, we recommend the use of a starter panel or control panel capable of cos phi load monitoring when running three-phase filterpumps.
