V3 Series

The V-Series Model V3’s design is the most recent, state-of-the-art self-cleaning screen filtration technology available today. The complexity and cleaning efficiency of any self-cleaning screen filter is in the mechanical system that drives the cleaning process.

The V-Series® patented Reverser drive mechanism is the simplest and most efficient in design resulting in:

  • Fewer moving parts (no limit switches or pistons reversing the cleaning mechanism),
  • Simpler controls
  • Lowest flush waste available
  • Greater cleaning efficiency
  • Lower maintenance requirements

The V-Series Model V3’s 10 to 15 second flush cycle is automatically initiated when the pressure differential across the screen increases to 7 psi. The filter remains on line and the filtration process remains uninterrupted during the cleaning process. And the flush discharge is the lowest available resulting in minimal waste.

The V-Series filters are constructed to ASME code and are designed to incorporate a broad range of construction materials, pressure and temperature options. And Valve and Filter custom manufactures filters and skids that simplify installation and meet specific requirements.
