Galaxy 6" SpinKlin Disc Filter
The Galaxy 6" Filter provides efficient and reliable disc filtration technology and is especially suited for pre-filtration for high flow water filtration applications. Modules are groups of filters that backwash together. The number of filters in the modules of a specific system is determined by the flow rate and water quality and may range between 2 and 12 filters. Each filter is equipped with a 8" - 12" inlet / outlet pipe diameters.

System Overview
At the heart of our disc filter are color coded polypropylene or nylon discs. These discs are grooved on both sides for a specific micron rating, then stacked and compressed on a specifically designed spine. The groove on top runs opposite the groove below creating a series of intersecting grooves that trap solids.
This automated disc filtration system is specifically targeted to pre-filtration of MF and UF membranes and water purification technologies. Precise filtration from 400 down to 20 microns is available. Filtration is effective for treatment of surface water, seawater and wastewater streams containing high amounts of suspended solids including algae.
Filter discs are stacked on a spine assembly that is specially designed to compress the filter element. Inside the spine a spring and the pressure differential compress the discs tightly during the filtration process. This forces the water to flow between the grooves in the discs with the solids being trapped between.

6" Filter Modules Design / Capacity
Modules are groups of filters that backwash together. The number of filters in the modules of a specific system is determined by the flow rate and water quality and may range between 2 and 12 filters. Each filter is equipped with a 8" - 12" inlet / outlet pipe diameters.
Capacity: Very high flow rates 3500 - 66,000 gpm (800 - 15,000 m3/h) and above.
Construction Material Options
Manifolds: PP, SS, Polyester Coated Carbon Steel.
Valves: Cast Iron, SS, Marine Bronze, SMO 254, Custom Made.
Standard Backwash Modules System
The system is designed to utilize the system's inlet pressure for backwash. Each module is equipped with 2 air activated butterfly valves: one inlet valve and one drain valve. An additional manual butterfly valve on the outlet port (for module isolation) is optional.
