Faivre/Pentair AES Rotary Drum Filters

Self-cleaning to 12,000 gpm
• Stainless steel (SS) filters with SS or high-density polyethylene (HDPE) tank.
• Units on frames are all SS.
• Replaceable multipiece 20- to 100-micron (μ) screens.

These high-quality, self-cleaning rotary drum filters are an excellent choice for high-volume solids removal. They are especially well-suited for low head loss and high-volume applications common to aquaculture and industry. System water flows by gravity to the drum filter and then through the screen. Solids are removed by the screen and then from the screen with a water washbar and directed to the sludge drain. Filter also includes an overflow drain.

Complete models include power backwash, water level switch, stainless steel screens and lid. We recommend 304L SS for freshwater and 316L SS for saltwater applications.

Applications include:
• Recirculating aquaculture
• Flow-through aquaculture.
• Zoological exhibits/Large aquariums.
• Industrial filtering
• Waste water.

We are now combining the Faivre mechanical drum and Pentair AES control panels for more complete capabilities and faster customer service. The state-of-the-art control panels include a programmable logic control (PLC) device that enhances the functionality of the system and provides extended capabilities for control, data collection, monitoring and alarming. These new systems are UL- and CSA-certified and highly serviceable anywhere in the world.
