Automatic water filter comes off the shelf

Boll & Kirch, automatic water filter

The Boll 6.04 automatic water filtration system from Boll & Kirch is designed for cooling systems and described as virtual plug and play. Units come complete with motor, valve and controller for simple and easy integration into the OEM building-services installation. These units are available off the shelf to bring the benefits of automatic filtration at an economic price.

Unlike traditional manual filters, these units provide continuous filtration without the need for cleaning — reducing maintenance costs and plant downtime.

They have a large filtration area for maximum efficiency and filter to 50 µm at flows from 1 to 5 l/s and pressures up to 16 bar.
