Sediment Filtration System
Product features
The Waterdrop Backwash Spin-down Sediment
Filtration System filters municipal tap water through a stainless steel filter
mesh, which can filter out sediment, rust, suspended solids, and parasites in
the water. Its backwashing function can clean the filter to make it reusable.
It effectively protects appliances such as water purifiers, water heaters,
wall-hung boilers, washing machines, dishwashers, and solar showers. The
transparent high-strength filter housing allows you to check the working
status of the filter at any time, and the system’s maintenance and backwashing
process can be seen at a glance.

Operation and maintenance
-
Filtration status
When the unfiltered water enters the filter from the inlet and passes through the filter mesh’s inner core, the large particles are intercepted on the outer surface of the mesh, and the filtered water flows from the outlet to the rear stage pipe. -
Flushing mode
As you turn on the drain valve, the unfiltered water enters the filter through the water inlet and flushes the filter mesh from the inside out, thereby flushing away impurities from the drain port.
Please flush the filter regularly every 15-30 days according to the local water quality. If you are using well water as the source, or if the water quality is poor, please flush at least once a week.

Clean the filter mesh
When some sticky impurities are embedded in the filter mesh and cannot be discharged after the drain valve is turned on, which also affects the water output and pressure of the other equipment, the filter mesh should be flushed.
a. Shut off the main inlet valve. Turn on the drain valve to release the pressure inside the pipe.
b. Put the wrench on the transparent filter housing, and unscrew the filter bottle clockwise. It is recommended to use the container to catch the residual water in the filter housing.
c. Take out the filter mesh and remove the impurities with a cleaning solution or brush.
