Description
The Flocell XFM Fines Filter 1200 is a premium, industrial-grade pressurised filtration unit designed for high-efficiency removal of fine suspended solids. Engineered and manufactured in the UK, this high-capacity filter is ideal for demanding applications such as tertiary wastewater treatment, aquaculture water polishing, and industrial process water filtration.
Key Benefits
- Exceptional fine-particle capture – Proprietary open-cell media effectively retains particles smaller than 5 µm, producing crystal-clear effluent with extremely low turbidity.
- Ultra-low water and energy use – The patented “Air Clean” system replaces conventional backwash cycles, drastically reducing both water waste and energy consumption.
- High retention & minimal maintenance – The unique media design offers a large solids-holding capacity, allowing for long filtration runs between cleaning cycles and reduced operational intervention.
- Low hydraulic load & flexible installation – The open structure maintains consistent flow performance, enabling operation even under gravity-feed conditions and reducing the need for high-head pumps.
- Built for reliability – Manufactured in the UK with high-grade materials, the 1200 mm-diameter unit offers robust performance for both industrial and aquaculture installations.
