Cleaning frequency of the large-flow filter element

DATE:2023-07-31Number of views: Source:LEFILTER

The cleaning frequency of the large-flow filter element mainly depends on the following factors:

water consumption

Water consumption is the main factor affecting the service life of the filter element. The more water, the more filter, the faster the scale speed.

In general:

With water below 2000 liters per day, cleaning the filter element once every 2 months is sufficient.

When the water is about 4000 liters a day, it is recommended to clean the filter element once a month.

When the daily water consumption exceeds 7500 liters, the filter element cleaning frequency shall be reached once every 2 weeks.

water quality

Water quality also affects the filter element life. For example, hard water and water with particles accumulate dirt faster and require more frequent cleaning.

Filter type

The service life of different types of filter elements is different. Special purpose filter element needs a higher cleaning frequency.

Refer to the manufacturer guidelines are recommended.

Process requirements

If clean water is crucial to the process and requires high clarity, the filter element cleaning frequency should be increased.

For example, for pharmaceutical process-related systems, it is recommended to clean the filter element once every 2 weeks.

To sum up,

When the water is below 1000 liters per day, cleaning the filter element once in 2 months is sufficient.

When using about 4000 liters a day, clean the filter element once a month.

In the hard water area or with the impurity water source, clean the filter element once a month.

When the highly purified water source process is required, the filter element should be cleaned once in 2 weeks.

When the filter element changes color or the water pressure drops, it should also replace the new filter element in time.

In addition to the regular cleaning of the filter element, a complete maintenance plan is equally important.

Inspect and clean the water dispenser parts regularly to ensure the system efficiency and provide high quality water purification that meets the process requirements for a long time.
