Spin Klin Technology
Spin Klin Spine - The Core of the Spin Klin Filtration System
The Spin Klin
®
discs are stacked on the Spin Klin
®
spine. The discs
are color-coded according to micron size and are assembled to suit
the water filtration requirements. The spine assembly has a spring
compression unit and an internal piston, which operate during alternate
filtration or back-flush modes. Inside the housing the spring and the
pressure difference compress the discs tightly during the filtration
process, forcing the water to flow between the grooves and trap the solids.
Spin Klin Automatic Back-flush Operation
Activated by an external command (differential pressure or time)
alternate units of the Spin Klin
system go into back-flush mode. The
inlet three-way valve closes the inlet to the filter pod and opens
the drain. T he outlet three-way valve closes the outlet of the filter
pod and opens the external source. During the back-flush process, the
compression spring is released and the pressure difference is
eliminated. The spine piston rises, releasing the pressure on the discs.
Tangential jets of clean water are pumped at high pressure in the
opposite direction through nozzles at the center of the spine. The discs
spin free and clear, loosening the trapped solids. Solids are quickly
and efficiently flushed out through the drain.
