Abstract
Disclosed is a filtering system used in any pool filtrations, filtration of taps or building entrance hot and cold use water, filtration of city water before osmosis filtering devices, filtration of heating and cooling mechanical plant systems, and filtration of cooling water in hydro-electric power plants. The system provides for forming a vortex inside a filter by directing and increasing speed of filtered liquid and thus providing decreasing pressure on the filter surface and collection of filtered particulates in a particulate accumulation chamber. The system also provides for automatic cleaning of the filter by reverse flushing, without the need for dismantling, by differential pressure sensors based on rate of contamination.
Claims1
A filtering system comprising:
- a filter chamber having a vertical orientation;
- a filter positioned in a diametric center of said filter chamber, said filter adapted to filter particulates;
- a particulate accumulation chamber positioned below said filter, said particulate accumulation chamber adapted to accumulate the particulates filtered by said filter;
- an inlet line extending vertically in said filter chamber and extending along the diametric center of said filter chamber, said inlet line adapted to flow water to be filtered toward said filter;
- a vortex cap positioned at an upper end of said inlet line, said vortex cap having a water outlet, wherein said inlet line is adapted to form a vortex by causing water to hit said vortex cap such that the water enters the filtering system at a center of said filter, the water flowing from upwardly within said filter and passing through said filter and filling said filter chamber from downwardly to upwardly;
- an outlet line connected to said filter chamber and adapted to allow filtered water to be discharged from said filter chamber after the water to be filtered passes through said filter;
- a first valve connected to said inlet line and to said outlet line, said first valve adapted to control a flow of the water to be filtered into said filter chamber through said inlet line and to control a flow of the filtered water from said filter chamber through said outlet line;
- a flushing water inlet connected to said filter chamber;
- a flushing water outlet positioned at a lower end of said particulate accumulation chamber;
- a second valve connected to said flushing water inlet and to said flushing water outlet, said second valve adapted to control a flow of a flushing water from said filter chamber and to control the flow of the flushing water to said particulate accumulation chamber;
- a differential pressure sensor positioned on said inlet line and on said outlet line, said differential pressure sensor controlling said first valve and said second valve relative to a pressure sensed by said differential pressure sensor;
- an automatic air discharge device connected to said filter chamber and adapted to discharge air from within said filter chamber;
- and
- a foot positioned below said filter chamber, said foot supporting said filter chamber in the vertical orientation.
