The Filterpump has a 250 micron fixed intake screen, continually backwashed by internal rotating jets powered by a dedicated impeller, keeping the screen clear even in highly contaminated fluids.

The Rotorflush Filterpump is a revolutionery new product, a submersible pump with an integral self cleaning intake filter. The pump has a 250 micron fixed intake screen, which is continually backwashed by two internal rotating jets powered by a dedicated impeller, keeping the screen clear even in highly contaminated fluids. With no external moving parts, even fluids containing string, plastic bags or sanitary products cannot cause blockage.

In addition the pump produces a filtered output, which will not block nozzles and valves in upstream equipment.

Huber Technology UK Ltd are a major supplier of inlet screens for sewage treatment works.

They wished to use the in-flowing sewage as a source of wash water for their screens.

Previously potable water had been used.

The Rotorflush Filterpump provided the ideal solution, an easy to install, submersible pump and self cleaning filter in one unit.

Not only was the unit able to work directly in sewage without blocking, an essential requirement on unmanned sewage treatment works, it also provided a filtered supply that would not block the nozzles and solenoids on their screening equipment.

A number of units have been supplied to Huber over the last 9 months with great success.
