AUTO KLEAN® FILTER SYSTEMS

The Auto-Klean model EG and Super Auto-Klean model EGS are all metal cleanable edge filters that can be cleaned without interrupting flow. Designed for long service life, the filter sump is gasket sealed and attached to the filter head by a clamping ring and four bolts to allow removal without disturbing inlet/outlet pipe connections. Mounting holes are drilled and tapped to permit installation on a vertical surface. A vent screw and sludge drain are provided for safe and easy system operation.

The Auto-Klean & Super Auto-Klean Story
Auto-Klean all metal edge filters are composed of a stack of alternating metal discs and spacers of uniform thickness on a rotatable central shaft. The cleaning blades are mounted on a stationary rod
and project into the area between the discs. When the handle is turned, the particles lodged on or between the discs are “combed” from the surface, restoring full flow conditions, without any service
interruption. The “combed” debris falls to the bottom of the sump for removal at a later time.

The Super Auto-Klean filter refines the design of Auto-Klean for a higher degree of filtration while maintaining all the ease of use of the original design. By using discs of a smaller diameter as spacers, a second filtration area is formed. The first filtration area, like the Auto-Klean, is between the larger or major discs, while the second area is between the inside diameter of the major disc and the outside diameter of the smaller or “minor” disc. The radial gap created by the major and minor discs determines the degree of filtration.

FEATURES
Cleanable all metal filter - one rotation of the handle cleans the cartridge
Durable cast iron and steel
Cartridge available in steel and stainless steel in various removal ratings

BENEFITS
Durable construction for long service life
Economical solution to long term filtration needs
Eliminates used cartridge disposal

FLOW CAPACITY
Flow rates (Table 2), at various viscosities, for the EG and EGS filters are based on clean fluid with pressure drop of 3 PSI. Flow rates for other viscosity fluids are approximately proportional. Select a 
filter model ac-cording to the nature and concentration of the contaminant to be removed.
