Filtration system

Abstract

A filtration assembly includes a tubular housing and a partition. The tubular housing has an inner volume, a first fluid inlet, a second fluid inlet, and a first fluid outlet. The partition resides within the tubular housing to divide the inner volume into a first volume and a second volume. The partition has a filter surface. The tubular housing directs, during filtration of a first fluid, the first fluid from the first fluid inlet to the first volume, from the first volume through the filter surface to the second volume, and from the second volume to the first fluid outlet. The tubular housing directs, during cleaning, a second fluid from the second fluid inlet to the second volume, through the second volume and the filter surface to the first volume, and from the first volume out of the tubular housing. The second fluid removes particles from the filter surface.
