Self-Cleaning Industrial Filters – Continuous Filtration Without Downtime

Keep your plant running at maximum efficiency with self-cleaning industrial filters designed for uninterrupted operation. These advanced systems automatically remove contaminants from the filter element, eliminating the need for manual cleaning and preventing costly production stoppages.

What is a Self-Cleaning Filter?

A self-cleaning filter is an automatic filtration system equipped with internal cleaning mechanisms that periodically remove build-up from the filter cartridge. This ensures consistent flow rates, protects downstream equipment, and maintains filtration performance without operator intervention.

How the Automatic Cleaning Process Works

Our self-cleaning filters use an inside-to-outside flow pattern for efficient contaminant capture:

1. Constant Monitoring

   • A differential pressure gauge tracks the pressure difference between inlet and outlet.

   • When the pre-set limit is reached, a signal is sent to the control panel to start the cleaning cycle.

2. Automatic Internal Cleaning

   • A geared motor on the filter lid rotates a central shaft fitted with internal scraper blades.

   • These scrapers sweep the inside of the filter cartridge, dislodging trapped particles.

3. Contaminant Discharge Without Interrupting Flow

   • A drain valve at the base of the filter opens to flush out loosened debris.

   • Once cleaning is complete, the valve closes, the motor stops, and filtration continues without shutdown.

The VEX Range – Scalable Solutions for Every Application

Our VEX range offers reliable industrial liquid filtration for varying capacity requirements:

• VEX MINI – Compact, space-saving solution for smaller systems.

• VEX MEDIUM – Ideal for mid-range flow rates with robust contaminant removal.

• VEX MAXI – High-capacity model for demanding industrial applications.

Key Benefits of Self-Cleaning Filters

• Continuous operation – No plant shutdowns for filter cleaning.

• Reduced maintenance – Automatic cleaning extends filter life and reduces labour costs.

• Improved process efficiency – Maintains consistent flow rates and product quality.

• Versatile applications – Suitable for a wide range of liquids and contamination levels.

Investing in a self-cleaning industrial filter ensures uninterrupted performance, cleaner process fluids, and reduced operating costs for your facility.
