JellyF
ish® filter
• A separator skirt encloses the filtration cartridge
and defines the filtration zone. The separator skirt
extends the full length of the filtration tentacles and
prevents contamination of the membranes with oil
and floatable debris. The separator skirt also forces
water to enter the filtration zone under low velocities.
The separator skirt is attached to the underside of the
cartridge deck.
• As an option, the inlet pipe can be located below the
deck for drainage networks with deep invert levels.
In these systems, a deflector plate is installed across
the inlet pipe to induce tangential water flow
through the channel between the chamber wall and
separator skirt.

• Large diameter access lids are installed at the surface
and are removed to allow access for maintenance
of the system. The upper chamber is designed
with tapered surrounds to match with finished
surface grades.
The JellyFish® filter and components are depicted in
