Metalworks Industrial Filters

Equipment cooling is an important consideration in mills and foundries. In such harsh environments, debris is commonly deposited into the water supply via cooling towers and other equipment, making filtration necessary. Using Forsta industrial water filters to strain suspended solids from cooling water is a cost efficient form of debris removal. Self-cleaning water filters remove particles from water and perform the backwash cycle without disrupting system flow.

Mill scale removal can be particularly troublesome in a metal processing environment. As production demands continue to rise, steel mills benefit from using industrial water filters. Removing scale with Forsta Industrial Water Filtration Systems allows mills to operate more efficiently both in terms of water conservation and economics. Implementing a Forsta system reduces or eliminates the need for scale pits, and offers a more organized use of valuable space.

Forsta industrial water filters increase productivity by reducing downtime and maximizing pumping capacity for better cooling. Self-cleaning filters use only a fraction of the water for backwash, and allow a constant flow of system water. Forsta industrial water filtration systems are especially constructive where reduction of water-footprint is of concern.

Self-cleaning water filters used in metal processing should be installed closest to the discharge of the main pump.

Usual water quality specifications for mills require a level of filtration from 75μ-3000μ.

Typical Applications:

• Cooling Tower Filtration
• Heat Exchanger Protection
• De-scaling for Continuous Casting
• Sea Water Filtration
• River Water Filtration
