BACKWASH DRUM FILTER
Efficient water filtration with automatic cleaning
Precise solid-liquid separation for industrial applications
The HP Backwash Drum Filter HP is a high-performance water filter that removes large quantities of solids from liquids. The liquid flows through the fine-mesh drum filter design, which reliably retains particles. Its robust design and individual choice of materials and sizes make it ideal for demanding media.
Various flange options facilitate integration into existing pipe systems and make the self-cleaning water filter flexible for use in industrial filter systems. Thanks to its high filtration performance, maintenance-friendly design, and long service life, this automatic backwash drum filter offers a cost-effective and reliable solution for industrial solid-liquid separation.

Advantages of the Backwash Drum Filter
High filtration performance:
The industrial filter provides precise solid-liquid separation at cleaning speeds of up to 10 m/s and 100% cleaning of the entire filter surface. At the same time, fine filtration down to 5 μm protects sensitive system parts from premature wear.
The result: up to 20 % more productivity, up to 35 % less downtime and a significantly longer service life for your system – even with highly variable dirt loads.
Full performance without installation effort:
The fully wired and tested unit enables fast commissioning without the need for time-consuming installation work. This means your system is ready for operation up to 40 % faster, installation errors are minimized and overall costs are reduced by up to 40 %.
Easy maintenance:
Thanks to the balanced loading of the entire filter surface, the self-cleaning water filter works particularly efficiently and with low wear. The automatic backwash function ensures reliable filtration with minimal maintenance.
This extends the service life of the filter element, reduces replacement part costs and saves up to 40 % of maintenance costs for permanently constant filtration performance with optimized operating processes.
Reliable operation:
Even under extreme conditions, the automatic backwash filter works stably and reliably. The sophisticated industrial filter technology guarantees consistent filtration performance.
Flexible adaptation:
The industrial water filter is available in various sizes and materials and can be flexibly adapted to individual requirements. The various flange options allow easy integration into existing piping systems. Thanks to its modular design, it is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
The backwash function of the Backwash Drum Filter
Efficient backwash technology for continuous filtration.
WHY A BACKWASH FUNCTION?
The backwash filter function removes accumulated solids from the filter element, ensuring uninterrupted filtration performance. It prevents clogging, reduces maintenance, and ensures efficient, continuous filtration with minimal water loss. In industrial filter systems in particular, this function ensures low operating costs and a long service life.
HOW DOES THE BACKWASH FUNCTION WORK?
The backwashing of the drum filter starts automatically as soon as the differential pressure measurement detects contamination. A motor-driven backwash valve opens, generating atmospheric pressure. The excess pressure on the clean water side pushes the solids out of the filter against the direction of filtration. The filter basket of the self-cleaning water filter is completely cleaned in 15-20 seconds through the rotation of the flushing shoes. This automatic backwash filter function enables reliable solid-liquid separation without interrupting the filtration process.
Key features of the Backwash Drum Filter
Intelligent filtration for demanding applications
High cleaning efficiency
Thanks to 100% cleaning of the entire filter surface and minimal flushing water losses, the filtration performance remains permanently high. The efficient backwash system of the automatic backwash drum filter ensures continuous filtration without interrupting operation.
Robust design for durable and reliable operation
The drum filter combines robust materials with a space-saving inline design. It can be installed flexibly, requires hardly any floor space and fits into existing systems without pipe conversions. This saves you up to 40 % installation costs and ensures efficient solid-liquid separation with a high flow rate.
Reliable protection for systems and liquid media
Our filter systems protect plate heat exchangers, spray nozzles, piping systems, mechanical seals, pumps, and microfiltration systems from contamination. They guarantee first-class filtration for cooling water, river water, process water, oils, emulsions, and drinking water. Even in mussel-infested waters, they offer reliable protection and long-term operational reliability for sensitive systems.
