Description
RF600 Self-cleaning Intake Strainer
The RF600 Self-cleaning Intake Strainer for attachment to the suction hose of surface mounted pumps. These all stainless steel construction mechanical filters are built to last and self-clean they combine industrial strength filtration with exceptionally low maintenance.
The RF600R series can deliver from 1,500 litres per minute to a maximum of up to 4,580 litres per minute (90 m3/ hr -275 m3/ hr) through perforated mesh screens (3mm and 6mm). The RF600AR series can deliver from 2,300 litres per minute to a maximum of up to 8,000 litres per minute (140 m3/ hr – 480 m3/ hr) through woven steel mesh mesh screens (1mm – 6mm).
Rotorflush self-cleaning filters use a proportion of your pump’s output to supply a feed to an internal backwashing rotor. They are powered by taking a ‘T’ off the already filtered pump output to supply the Rotorflush internal rotors. The cleaning rotors continuously backwash the mesh screen blowing away anything that might cause it to block.
All our filters and strainers use the same patented technology, providing efficient self-cleaning backwash to keep their filter mesh clear. These filters operate at source in very dirty water, reducing the need for settlement tanks or expensive inline filter systems.
There are five models both RF600R and RF600AR self-cleaning intake strainers offering a broad range of capacities.
Rotorflush filters can customise these filters to suit particular applications. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
