The Importance of Filter Cleaning

Filters play a crucial role in the normal operation of slurry pumps. By effectively cleaning the filters, it is possible to prevent a decrease in flow rate and equipment damage caused by the accumulation of impurities, thereby ensuring the efficient and stable operation of slurry pumps.

Prevent blockages

Slurry pumps are effective in filtering out large particle impurities when dealing with liquids containing a large amount of impurities, preventing these impurities from entering the interior of the pump and causing wear and blockage of the pump body.

Maintain high efficiency

A clean filter can ensure that the slurry pump maintains optimal working efficiency during operation, avoiding a reduction in flow rate due to impurities and thereby improving overall work performance.

The specific method for cleaning the filter

Regular cleaning

It is very necessary to clean the filter regularly according to the frequency of use and environmental conditions of the slurry pump. Generally, it is recommended to clean 5-6 times a year, or when the display shows the "5E" error message.

Cleaning Steps

Preparation Work: Ensure that the work area is clean, prepare a container for water collection, and wear personal protective equipment.

Disassemble the filter: Gently disassemble the filter using the appropriate tools, taking care not to apply too much force and damage the equipment.

Clean the filter: Place the removed filter in clean water and gently brush the surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For stubborn dirt, consider soaking it in dilute hydrochloric acid solution.

Reinstall the Filter: After cleaning, reinstall the filter in its proper position and ensure a tight seal with no leaks.

Precautions during the cleaning process

Safety measures

When cleaning the filter, be sure to turn off the power and use appropriate personal protective equipment such as a safety helmet, protective goggles, and protective gloves.

Avoid damage

During the cleaning process, avoid using hard objects or metal brushes to prevent scratching the surface of the filter.

Inspection and Maintenance after Cleaning

Check the installation

After reinstalling the filter, it should be carefully checked to ensure that it is securely installed and there is no leakage.

Start the test

Turn on the slurry pump for a brief start-up test, observe for any abnormal noise or vibration, and ensure that everything is normal.

By following the above steps and precautions, it is possible to effectively ensure the normal operation of slurry pumps, extend the service life of equipment, and improve work efficiency.
