{"product_id":"self-cleaning-wedge-wire-filter-fsc-70","title":"Self-Cleaning Wedge Wire Filter FSC-70 for Industrial Liquid Filtration","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct description\u003c\/h2\u003e\nSelf-cleaning wedge wire filters are used in industrial liquid filtration systems where continuous removal of suspended solids is required without the use of disposable filter elements.\n\nThe FSC-70 self-cleaning filter is designed for medium capacity filtration in industrial processes including water treatment, coatings, adhesives, solvents and oils. The robust stainless steel construction makes the system suitable for demanding operating conditions.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe FSC-70 filter consists of a cylindrical wedge wire filter element combined with a rotating scraper assembly. During operation, the motor-driven cleaning system removes deposited particles from the filter surface and transports them to the sediment chamber.\n\nThis design allows continuous filtration while maintaining stable pressure conditions and minimal maintenance requirements.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOperating principle\u003c\/h2\u003e\nLiquid enters the filter housing and flows through the wedge wire filter element from the outside to the inside. Suspended particles larger than the selected micron rating accumulate on the external surface of the filter screen.\n\nThe gear motor rotates the cylindrical filter element while the scraper blade removes deposited solids from the screen surface. The separated particles settle in the lower chamber of the housing and can be discharged through the drain valve while filtration continues.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial options\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTypical construction materials include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel filter housing (1.4404 \/ 1.4571)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel wedge wire filter element (1.4404)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel scraper blade (1.4310)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial worm gear motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarious sealing materials depending on process fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAvailable micron ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTypical micron rating options include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e250 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1000 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 3000 µm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThe micron rating determines the particle size retained on the wedge wire filter surface.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign and construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTypical system characteristics include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor-driven scraper cleaning mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal-to-internal filtration flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous filtration during cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated sediment chamber for solids collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel industrial construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlanged pipeline connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nTypical operating parameters include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum flow rate: approx. 13 m³\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating pressure: 0 – 10 bar (up to 16 bar optional)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature: +10 °C to +80 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical connection: 400 V \/ 50 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtection class: IP65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nSelf-cleaning wedge wire filters are commonly used in:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial water treatment systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaint and coating filtration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdhesive and resin processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolvent and chemical filtration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil and lubricant filtration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolymer and polyurethane processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtection of pumps and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous filtration without disposable filter cartridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic scraper cleaning mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimal product loss during solids discharge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobust stainless steel industrial construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide range of available micron ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for demanding process environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eConfiguration and quotation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTo select the correct self-cleaning filter configuration the following parameters should be defined:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiquid type and viscosity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParticle size distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequired micron rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlow rate and system pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection size and installation orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThese parameters determine the correct filter size, screen configuration and cleaning system.\n\n\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\n\"mainEntity\":[\n{\n\"@type\":\"Question\",\n\"name\":\"What is a self-cleaning wedge wire filter?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\":{\n\"@type\":\"Answer\",\n\"text\":\"A self-cleaning wedge wire filter removes suspended solids from liquids using a stainless steel wedge wire screen and a rotating scraper cleaning mechanism.\"\n}\n},\n{\n\"@type\":\"Question\",\n\"name\":\"How does a self-cleaning filter work?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\":{\n\"@type\":\"Answer\",\n\"text\":\"Liquid flows through the wedge wire screen while particles accumulate on the surface.
