Traditional disassembly-based maintenance for budget-conscious operations with lower duty cycles.
Manual cleaning is the most economical cleaning approach, requiring no additional automation hardware. Filter operation is suspended, the housing is disassembled, and the screen element is removed for external cleaning before reassembly.
Stop flow, close isolation valves, and depressurize the filter housing.
Unbolt or unclamp the filter head to access the internal screen element.
Lift the screen element out of the filter body for cleaning.
Spray or brush debris from screen openings using water, air, or approved cleaning agents.
Check screen for damage, replace gaskets if needed, reinstall screen, and secure head.
Open valves, restart flow, and verify proper operation with no leaks.
Budget-Sensitive Projects: Initial equipment cost is prioritized over operational efficiency.
Low Duty Cycle: Filter cleaning is infrequent (weekly or less) and scheduled during planned downtime.
Clean Water Sources: Low solids loading with minimal debris accumulation.
Seasonal Operations: Equipment is only used part of the year with long idle periods.
Upgrade to BIF & MVC semi-automatic cleaning to reduce cleaning time from 30-60 minutes down to 5-15 minutes—without full teardown.
Explore Semi-Automatic OptionsPrecision gasket-sealed filters with manual disassembly for thorough cleaning.
Stainless steel inline filters with modular ports and manual maintenance access.
Economy filters with ring-lock quick-release head for fast screen removal.
TIG filters do not support Brush/Vacuum/RAB cleaning options. Follow standard TIG maintenance procedures only.
Our filtration specialists can help you evaluate manual vs. semi-automatic vs. fully automatic cleaning based on your operational requirements.
