PRE-FILTER LARGE PARTICLES DF-24 FOR PTB-24 PETRO-BARRIER™
The PTB-DF-24 internal pre-filter is an essential complement to PETRO-BARRIER™ filters. Placed at the top of the PTB-24 in the inlet chamber, it serves as the first pre-filter for cleaning the water before the SF-24 and before it comes into contact with the active material in the PTB-C-24 filter cartridge. The pre-filter protects them from large particles and impurities in the water (stones, leaves, twigs, etc.).
The PTB-DF-24 internal pre-filter is essential for the proper operation of PETRO-BARRIER™ filters. The pre-filtration of the inlet water is crucial to avoid blocking the PTB too frequently with large debris on site.
This system is ideal in civil engineering applications (retention basin, concrete pits, etc.).
Installation and maintenance:
The PTB-DF-24 is easily mounted and dismounted once the cover of the PETRO-BARRIER™ PUMP has been opened.
The internal foams of the pre-filter should be cleaned with clean water as often as required as the place of use. The frequency of rinsing depends on the amount of impurities brought into each drainage point.
In difficult conditions (significant presence of leaves, stones, twigs or any other element that could clog the pre-filtration system), maintenance must be carried out more regularly. Without major incidents, it is strongly recommended to change the internal components every 3 years.
