  • Flexibility
  • Flexible enough for just about any application
  • Whether you need a filter for a Tee or for a square septic tank baffle
  • This flexibility extends to the service of the filter as well
  • As mentioned above, the tank does not need to be pumped down for servicing
  • The filter can be washed out and reused or you can choose to simply pull out and replace the filter with a new one (Plastic bags are supplied with the filter for disposal)
  • Design
  • The filter is composed of non directional polypropylene bristles that are would together with a stainless steel core
  • The contoured shape of the filter creates a debris separation space that naturally sorts debris according to size and mass
  • This space also ensures even filter usage for a long lifespan
  • Service Intervals
  • Service intervals will vary depending upon many factors such as water usage, soap usage, garbage disposals, etc
  • The filter should be serviced at least every three years
  • For maximum protection it should be replaced about every 50,000 gallons of effluent
  • For average residential applications this correlates to about 1 year of service
  • Because the water usage and configurations of systems vary quite a bit from area to area and even in the same area depending upon when a system was installed, it is recommended that the filter be inspected annually
  • Commercial Applications
  • Sim/Tech bristle filters come in various sizes rated at different maximum flow rates
  • Large filters can be used for high volume commercial applications and/or filters can be manifolded together to meet the appropriate flow rate
  • The 4.00" filters is rated at 1800 gallons per day
