Introduction
The FILTOMAT M100 Series Filters are sophisticated, yet easy-to-operate automatic filters, with a self-cleaning mechanism driven by a hydraulic turbine. The FILTOMAT M100 Series is designed to work with various types of screens in filtration degrees from 500 to 80 micron, and is available in 4″, 6″, 8″ and 10″ inlet/outlet diameter.
The FILTOMAT M100 Series filters are configured to meet your specific needs according to flow rates and water quality. These filters can be installed as stand-alone units for low flow rates, or assembled in a group on a manifold when high flow rates and/or a large screen area are required. The filters are delivered fully assembled, requiring a simple connection to the inlet and outlet and to the drain.
General Description Water enters the filter through the inlet pipe and passes through a coarse screen which is designed to protect the cleaning mechanism from large dirt particles. It should not accumulate large quantities of suspended solids and is not cleaned automatically. The water then flows through a fine screen that filters out the smaller particles. Clean water then flows from the filter through the outlet. The particles form a “filtration cake” which accumulates on the fine screen surface. The cake build-up increases the pressure differential across the fine screen, and at a pre-set value (0.5bar; 7psi) the automatic self-cleaning cycle begins. Clean water continues to flow through the outlet. The clean water flow is maintained during this back-flush cycle. Suction nozzles sweep across the surface of the fine screen pulling debris off and exhausting it out of the drain port.
This innovative self-cleaning process, utilizes the back-flush technique and dirt collector to effectively remove the dirt particles from the fine screen, and provide an uninterrupted downstream flow during the cycle.
The M100 Series filters are hydraulically operated units. No external power source is required. This type of control enables operation at remote installation sites. Alternatively, where electricity is available, an electronic controller can also be incorporated into the filter.

Self-Cleaning Cycle
The automatic flushing cycle described below takes a few seconds and does not interrupt the supply of process water.
Water flows from the inlet through the coarse and fine screens to the outlet. At a pre-set pressure differential (0.5 bar –7 psi), the controller activates the piston and opens the flushing valve. The water from the rotor chamber flows out the drain. The pressure in the rotor chamber drops, releasing a strong flushing stream that flows through the filter.
This drop in pressure and corresponding release of the back flush stream create suction at the nozzle tips. This effect actuates spot cleaning directly in front of the openings of each nozzle on the inner surface of the fine screen. The water and particles passing through the hydraulic rotor cause the dirt collector to rotate, and the piston moves in an axial direction to the opposite end of the filter.
The combination of rotational and axial movement of the dirt collector assembly ensures that the nozzles sweep the entire inner surface of the fine screen.
When the first stroke is completed, the flushing valve closes and after a very short interval, the controller activates the second back flush stroke. The dirt collector assembly spins, moving with the piston in the opposite direction and returning to its original position.
This self-cleaning process takes between 8­15 seconds, depending on the operating pressure.

Installation
Read these instructions carefully before installing and operating the filter.
Design Recommendations
If a prolonged pipeline fill time causes a temporary high flow and low pressure situation, it is recommended that you install a pressure sustaining valve downstream of the filter. The pressure-sustaining valve will ensure a controlled fill-up of the line.
The upstream pressure source should not drop below 30psi (2bar) during the rinse cycle. If this cannot be ensured, consult the manufacturer.
If continued water delivery is essential even during “down time” maintenance periods, it is recommended that a manual or automatic by-pass be installed, and that isolating valves be installed up and downstream of each filter unit for isolation purposes.
Avoid placing the drainage pipe on a rising slope to minimize backpressure. Secure the open end of the drain pipe to prevent movement during the rinse cycle. It is recommended to install a mechanical non-return valve downstream of the filter to prevent backflow damage to
the screen. It is recommended to install a pressure gauge on the three-way valve. Check that there is sufficient space to remove the lid assembly and the screen from the filter for troubleshooting.
Preparations for Installation
Ensure suitable lighting at the area of the filter to enable good visibility and safe maintenance. Arrange suitable platforms and safety barriers to enable easy, safe access to the filter. Allow a convenient approach and enough space for dismantling and maintenance.
Installation Procedure
Ensure the direction of flow is according to the arrows marked on the filter housing. 1. Connect a minimum of 3″ (75 mm) pipe to the exhaust valve. The exhaust pipe should be designed so that it creates
minimal resistance to flow of 20m3/h (88 US-gpm). Water should be allowed to flow to atmosphere freely from the exhaust pipe. 2. Connect a minimum of 1″ (25mm) flexible tube to the rinse controller drain port. Ensure this drain line is open to atmosphere.
IMPORTANT!!
Prevent static back pressure or reverse flow through the filter. Install a manual or a hydraulic valve downstream of the filter.
NOTE: The filter may enter flushing mode automatically, without prior warning.

Preparations
Before using the filter for the first time, go through the following check-list carefully. No special training is required to carry out these activities.
Check that the upstream pressure at the filter inlet is more than 2bar (30psi) during the rinse cycle. Check that the filter is mounted in the correct flow direction. Check that all the control tubes are connected properly and that all connections are tight. The nominal diameter of the drainpipe should be at least 3″ (75mm). If the recommended upstream and downstream isolation valves have been installed, check that they are shut.
Getting Started
First operation of the filter
After completing the preparation check-list above, perform the following steps: 1. Slowly open the isolating valve at the filter inlet. Water will flow into the filter. 2. Check for leaks and repair if necessary. 3. Check that the minimum inlet pressure remains 2bar (30psi) or higher. 4. Slowly open the isolating valve at the outlet of the filter. 5. If there is a by-pass valve, close it slowly. 6. Ensure the flow through the filter does not exceed the filter’s published maximum flow rate. 7. Start a manual flush by pressing the push button on the controller panel. 8. During the self-cleaning cycle, check the pressure at the filter inlet and in the rotor chamber.
NOTE: The minimum pressure in the rotor chamber should be 1.5bar (22psi) lower than the inlet pressure.

1. This certificate applies to Amiad Water Systems Ltd. (“Amiad”) products purchased by you (the “Buyer”) from Amiad unless specifically agreed otherwise in writing by Amiad. This Warranty extends only to the original purchaser, and is not transferable to anyone who subsequently purchases, leases, or otherwise obtains the product from the original purchaser.
2. Amiad hereby warrants that the products are and will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. Amiad warrants that it will correct manufacturing defects in the products, in accordance with the conditions set out in this Warranty.
3. This Warranty is enforceable for a period of 12 months after the date upon which the products were delivered (the “Warranty Period”).
4. In the event that during the Warranty Period the Buyer discovers a defect in material and/or workmanship in any product or part (the “Defective Product”), it shall submit a written complaint to Amiad using Amiad’s standard Buyer Complaint Form. For the receipt of the Buyer Complaint Form, the submission of the complaint or any questions please contact your service representative.
5. Upon written demand by Amiad the Buyer shall return the Defective Product – or a sample thereof – to Amiad, at Amiad’s cost. If the Buyer ships any such Defective Product, Amiad suggests the Buyer package it securely and insure it for value, as Amiad assumes no liability for any loss or damage occurring during shipment. Provided however that in the event Amiad determines that this Warranty does not apply to such product, Buyer shall promptly reimburse Amiad for such cost (including freight and customs). Any returned product or part must be accompanied by the Warranty certificate and the purchase invoice. It is clarified that the Buyer may not return the Defective Product unless such return was coordinated and approved by Amiad in advance.
6. Amiad’s obligation under this Warranty shall be limited to, at Amiad’s option, the repair or exchange, free of charge, of the product or any part which may prove defective under normal use and service during the Warranty Period. The provision of a repair or replacement of a product during the Warranty Period will result in an extension of the Warranty Period by an additional period of 12 months, provided that the total accumulated Warranty Period shall in any event be no more than 18 months from the date upon which the products were delivered.
7. This Warranty is valid on the condition that the products are installed according to Amiad’s instructions as expressed in Amiad’s instruction manuals and according to the technical limitations as stipulated in Amiad’s literature or as stated by a representative of Amiad.
8. This Warranty will not apply to damaged or defective products resulting from or related to:
(i) Fire, flood, power surges or failures or any other catastrophe and/or unforeseen occurrence, such as but not limited to those for which the Buyer is customarily insured for, or any force majeure events;
(ii) Fault, abuse or negligence of the Buyer;
(iii) Intake water not meeting the agreed standards, as set forth in a written document, approved by Amiad, or improper storage;
(iv) Improper or unauthorized use of the product or related parts by the Buyer, including Buyer’s failure to operate the product in conformity with the recommendations and instructions of Amiad, as set forth in Amiad’s manuals and other written materials, the operation of the product other than by a trained and qualified operator, or improper installation of the product by a third party not authorized by Amiad;
(v) Performance by the Buyer of maintenance or operation other than in conformity with the recommendations and instructions of Amiad, or other than in accordance with procedures defined in the literature supplied for products (including the timely replacement of requisite parts), and for services provided other than by a trained and qualified advanced operator; or
(vi) Any alteration, modification, foreign attachment to or repair of the products, other than by Amiad or its authorized technical representatives.
9. In no event shall Amiad be liable to the Buyer or any third party for any damages to property, or for any intangible or economic loss, including loss of profits, loss of customers or damage to reputation, for any damages, including indirect, special, consequential damages, or punitive damage arising out of or in connection with this Warranty, or arising out of or in connection with the product’s performance or failure to perform, even if it has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
10. Amiad will be excused for failure to perform or for delay in performance hereunder if such failure or delay is due to causes beyond its reasonable control or force majeure preventing or hindering performance.
11. This Warranty set forth herein is the only contractual warranty given by Amiad and is provided in lieu of any other warranties created by any documentation, packaging or otherwise.
12. Amiad makes no warranty whatsoever in respect to accessories or parts not supplied by Amiad. In the event that Amiad is required to correct a Defective Product or product not covered by this Warranty, it will do so solely in consideration for additional fees.
