Patented Auto-Shell filters use a deep bed of 100-percent black walnut shells that have excellent surface characteristics for coalescing and filtration, as well as superior resilience to attrition. They offer a 66-inch nutshell bed – the deepest in the industry. These filters eliminate the need for flat media retention screens, and use only one media-scrubbing pump for up to eight filters. This simplifies the design and lowers the cost of multiple filter systems.

Features and Benefits

  • No flat media retention screen required
  • Only one media scrubbing pump is needed, simplifying the design and lowering the cost
  • Deep nutshell bed produces superior effluent quality, longer filtration runs and greater throughput efficiency
  • The backwashing process uses the raw process water, which eliminates the need for air scour, stand-by filters or additional storage tanks
  • Twice the flux rate of conventional filters in the same application
  • The filter removes three times the amount of solids before cleaning is required
