1. Using Filtered Water for Ballast Water Exchange

Filtered sea water from a ship’s ballast can be released back into the sea, eliminating the potential of unloading non-native and often invasive plants and animals where they don’t belong. Many cruise lines are using on-board filtration to clean their bilge water during the ballast water exchange. By using Tekleen self-cleaning automatic filters, ballast water can be cleaned of debris and solids, thereby preventing animals, vegetation, and floating debris from exiting. Debris can then be collected and disposed of properly.

2. Pre-Filtering for Potable Water Processing from Sea Water, and Keeping Pipes Clean for Maintenance Minimization

When used for other purposes to filter water on board, an automatic self-cleaning Tekleen filter can support cooling systems, can pre-filter water for further cleaning and desalination,

In addition to their standard filters which operate at 40-150psi,  TEKLEEN® has a line of fully automatic, self-cleaning water filters with working pressure as low as 15psi - the Low Pressure Filter (LPF) Series.

The LPF Series filters are available in a wide range of industrial configurations and are designed and manufactured in accordance to ANSI and ASME standards (ASME U stamp is an option). Sizes range from 2" - 36", flow rates from 100 - 20,000 gpm, screen mesh from 25µ - 3,000µ.

TEKLEEN® water filters are the industry's highest quality automatic, self-cleaning water filters and strainers. They specialize in providing industrial water filters and irrigation filters which are designed in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII standards.

The TEKLEEN® filter is self cleaning and operates on line pressure alone, eliminating the need for an external power source. As water passes through the water filter, the dirt particles are collected on the screen. This causes a drop in water pressure. When the pressure drop reaches a preset level, the cleaning cycle is initiated. The Vacuum Screen Cleaner aggressively suctions the dirt from the inside of the screen and flushes it out the drain.  The backwash cycle is accomplished in seconds without interrupting the main flow.

But how do the automatic, self-cleaning filters stack up against alternative filtration methods in the marketplace today?  A TEKLEEN® water filter not only saves you time and money replacing cartridges and bags by automating the cleaning cycle, but is also more advanced and cost-effective than other water filter options available.

TEKLEEN® ABW Series filters are custom manufactured to meet a wide range of industrial applications, including ASME certified, sea water, high temperature, high pressure, etc. The filters are complete with Stainless Steel screens and can be set up in parallel for unlimited flow capacities. The filter bodies are available in stainless steel and carbon steel with baked on epoxy coating. Clean filter pressure drop with 100µ screen is less than 1psi at the rated flow of the filter.

What is an Automatic Filter?

The TEKLEEN® filter is self-cleaning and operates on line pressure alone, eliminating the need for an external power source. As water passes through the water filter, the dirt particles are collected on the screen. This causes a drop in water pressure. When the pressure drop reaches a preset level, the cleaning cycle is initiated. The Vacuum Screen Cleaner aggressively suctions the dirt from the inside of the screen and flushes it out the drain.
