The Keys to Efficient Operation, Longest Filtration Run Cycles, and Lower Operating Costs: FilterWorx control system continuously monitors filtrate quality and filter bed conditions. Your filter is backwashed only when needed and only for as long as needed. Filtrate quality and filter run volumes are optimized, while reducing energy consumption and wastewater generation. Our controls keep the filter media well conditioned, extending the life of your filter.

Efficient Deep Cleaning Backwash: Genuine Leopold® Underdrains and I.M.S® media support evenly distribute backwash water and air to every portion of the filter bed, eliminating dead zones. Air scour increases shear and develops collapse pulse throughout the bed, for a deep clean with reduced backwash water consumption.

Complete Integration: We use standard communication protocols that easily integrate into most other plant control or SCADA systems.

Three types of underdrains to meet any configuration need Underdrains collect filtered water during the filter run, and distribute air and water during backwash cycle. All Leopold® underdrains deliver the superior performance that has made the Leopold Underdrain the industry leader.
 

• Superior Air and Water Distribution for effective backwash. The dual parallel lateral design and the water recovery channels, both developed by Leopold®, give even distribution with less than 5% maldistribution and no dead zones, even in extra-long length laterals.
• Cleaner filters mean longer filter runs and higher water efficiency, more product water, less waste. This lowers your operating costs per gallon or liter of filtered water.
• Air Flow Adjustability allows YOU more control and saves energy and water. Air scour rate can be adjusted from 1 to 5 SCFM/SQ.FT. (0.3 to 1.5 m/min), enabling collapse pulse cleaning during concurrent air/water backwash with various media configurations. Air scour provides higher shear forces and cleaner media, with less wastewater generation.
• Faster installation with fewer parts than nozzle systems and no false floor. Underdrain blocks are light weight for easily handling and snap together for quick installation, shortening construction time and putting you in production quicker.
• Design Flexibility with different heights to allow for different combinations of lateral lengths and vertical filter heights, as well as different flume configurations.
