Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Filter - 2 stage - 110mm VF1 - 450m2

£289.00
Maximum quantity available reached.

Rainwater filter for installation before a rainwater storage tank in the ground. Also often used in river intake systems as the filter is self-cleaning.

The VF1 Rainwater Harvesting filter has a tried and tested two step cleaning process within it and is highly efficient independent of flow rates. Due to the steeply inclined filter inserts, dirt is continually washed to the waste water outlet. The cleaned water passes into a small collecting sump, from where it is led to the storage tank.

Suitable for roof areas up to 450m2.

The cleaned water can be used in non-potable situations, for example; washing machines, toilet flushing, garden irrigation, car washing, etc.

The Volume Filter is supplied with the Rainwater Supply pipe connection points (on either side of the unit) sealed so the installer can connect the pipes to the most appropriate side(s) of the unit. DN100 (4") pipe connections are recommended.

The Filter also has an optional DN50 outlet (2") for cleaned rainwater water for water top-up.

The filter is low maintenance and easily accessed by removing the top lid. The filter can then also be removed for cleaning. Twice yearly inspections of the filter are recommended.

The VF1 Filter is also available with the cleaned water outlet at the bottom of the Filter (VF1 Combi). The position of the Water Outlet means that the Filter can be installed on the top surface of a Rainwater Storage Tank, or within the ground before the tank giving you a  high level of flexibility as to the direction for the Cleaned Water Pipe.

How It Works

  1. Incoming rainwater is equally distributed across the cascade.
  2. Larger dirt particles are washed directly to waste off the primary cascade.
  3. Pre-cleaned water then flows over the finer secondary sieve unit (at 0.65mm). Because of the specialist filter structure, fine dirt is rinsed to waste, and washes out of the waste outlets.
  4. The cleaned water flows into the collection tank.
  5. The dirt that has been filtered out is washed to waste.
