Forsta Self-Cleaning Filters Improve Reclaimed Water System at Long Beach City College
Long Beach City College needed to upgrade and automate its reclaimed water irrigation system. The existing pump was not big enough to allow for automatic filtration. The system had been utilizing a maintenance-heavy manual filter to protect irrigation equipment, and was only able to provide enough pressure to irrigate one zone at a time.
During the upgrade process, a larger pump was selected that would provide enough pressure (min. 40psi) to allow for the use of automatic filtration in the 240gpm system. The architect specified the Forsta B4-180 model filter with 200 micron screen for the job.
