Description & Operation

Disc Filtration Technology:

Amiad Filtration Systems uses a specially designed disc filtration technology. Thin, color-coded polymeric discs are diagonally grooved on both sides to a specific micron size. A series of these discs are then stacked and compressed on a specially designed spine. When stacked, the groove on top runs opposite to the groove below, creating a filtration element with a statistically significant series of grooves and traps for solids. The stack is enclosed in corrosion and pressure resistant housing.
During the filtration process, the filtration discs are tightly compressed together by the spring’s power and the differential pressure, thus providing high filtration efficiency. Filtration occurs while water is percolated from the outer diameter to the inner diameter of the element. Depending on the micron rating, there are from 18 (in 400 micron discs) to 32 (in 20 micron discs) stopping points in each track, thus creating the unique in-depth filtration.

Description & Operation

Spin Klin Technology:

Spin Klin Spine – The Core of the Spin Klin Filtration System
The Spin Klin discs are stacked on the Spin Klin Spine. The discs are color- coded according to micron size, and are assembled to suit your water filtration requirements. The spine assembly has a spring compression unit and an internal Piston, which operate during alternate filtration or back-flush modes. Inside the housing a spring and the pressure difference compress the discs tightly during the filtration process, forcing the water to flow between the grooves on the discs and trap the solids.
Spin Klin Technology

Spin Klin Automatic Back-flush Operation

Activated by an external command (differential pressure or time) alternate units of the Spin Klin system go into back-flush mode.
During the back-flush mode, the compression spring is released and the pressure difference is eliminated. The spine piston rises up, releasing the pressure on the discs. Tangential jets of clean water are sprayed at high pressure through the nozzles of the spine at the discs.
The discs spin freely loosening the trapped solids that quickly and efficiently washed out through the drain.
Spin Klin Technology
Back-flush Valves Operation Mode

Modes of the filter’s Control valve

Filtration Position:

  • Inlet valve – Water flows from port [2] (main supply) to port [C] (filter connection). Port [1] (drain water outlet) is closed by the seal.
  • Outlet valve – Water flows from port [C] to port [2]. Port [1] is closed by the seal.

Back-flush Position:

  • Inlet valve – Command pressure is applied to the diaphragm’s control chamber through port [D]. The diaphragm moves the sealed shaft, port [2] closes, preventing flow to the filter. Port [C] opens, allowing flushing water to flow from port [C] (filter connection) to the drain [1].
  • Outlet valve – Command pressure is applied to the diaphragm’s control chamber through port [D]. The diaphragm moves the sealed shaft, port [2] closes, port [1] opens, allowing flushing water to flow to port [C].

Mode of Operation

Filtration Process

  • During the filtration stage water flows through the Inlet Manifold, distributing through the Straight flow Valve to the 2″ Spin Klin Filter.
  • The water passes through the Filters Filtration Elements Cleaned and flows out through the Straight flow Valve to the Outlet Manifold and to the customer.
  • At this stage the Accumulator Tank fills up with clean water from the Outlet Manifold through its Check Valve.

Back-flushing Process

  1. The Controller/PLC transmits an electric signal to solenoid No.1 (as per pressure differential set point reach, time set-up or manually whichever comes first).

  2. Command from solenoid No. 1 simultaneously flow to the valves of filter No.1:
    a. To the INLET VALVE (Straight Flow) converting it from filtration mode to back-flush mode.
    b. To the OUTLET VALVE (Straight Reverse Flow) converting it from filtration mode to backflush mode.

  3. After Pre-set Valve delay time the Controller/PLC transmits an electric signal to the Valve Delay Solenoid.

  4. Command from the Valve delay solenoid simultaneously flow to the Accumulator Tank valves:
    a. To the Air Valve, allowing the compressed Air to enter the Accumulator Tank.
    b. To the Check Valve to close the connection to the outlet manifold.

  5. The Compressed Air enters the Accumulator Tank and increase the water pressure in it to the pressure of the Compressed Air.

  6. The Air is mixed with clean water and is carried to Filter No.1 which is then Back-flushed.
    *The ratio between Air and water will rise until there is hardly any water at termination (air alone does not spin the discs).

  7. At the end time of the Back-flush the Controller/PLC release the command first of the Valve delay Solenoid then after the same delay time as paragraph 3 to the Solenoid No.1.

  8. The Accumulator Tank need to fill up with clean water before the next filter can be back-flushed, about 20 – 25 seconds will be enough.

  9. When the Accumulator Tank is filled up the controller will start back-flush the next filter until all the filters are clean.

Installation & Start-up

Installation

A. Check for any transport damage (The System operates under pressure!).
B. Make sure that the inlet and outlet orientations are correct (shown by arrows on The System).
C. Connect the Inlet, Outlet, Drain with theirs valvesto the Main manifolds.
D. Verify that all the covers clamps are properly closed!
E. Connect and check the pressure source to the command solenoids of the PLC/Controller.
F. Connect the Air pressure source to the Accumulator.

Start-up Operation
  • If possible, do a dry test run (once or more) on all the system to be sure all connections and wiring are ok.
  • Run the System by slowly open the inlet valve letting the Air from the system to vent out from the Air Release Valve on top of the Inlet manifold.
  • Once the Air vents, check for leakages that can happen during transportation and installation.
  • If the pressure difference is high, verify that the flow rate is not too high. An excessive flow rate through the filter causes excessive pressure loss.
  • Open the Air supply and check the Air pressure in the Accumulator tank.
  • Manually Start a back-flush cycle and make sure that all system components function correctly.
  • If after the Back-flush the pressure difference is not reduced check if the flow is not too high, or the Air supply is too low (pressure/flow).

Note: PLC/Controllers are varied according to the Order.

PLC/Control

  • Refer to the manufacturer’s handbook before installing the PLC/Controller.

  • Make sure that the voltage is correct BEFORE connecting it.

  • Check that the ∆P hydraulic switch HIGH and LOW pressure tubes are correctly connected to the appropriate ports.

  • Set the DP switch to the required ∆P (Recommended ∆P will be 5m/ 7PSI according to the siteconditions).

  • Set the PLC/Controller Back-flush Time to 7 seconds, Valve Delay to 1 second and the Dwell time to 25 seconds. These settings may require adjustment to conform to local water conditions.
    Typically, a 1 to 3-hour interval between back-flushes cycles is recommended.

  • Typically, the Back-flush Cycle Time is a backup for the DP switch, it work in a way that whichever comes first reset the back-flush Cycle Timer. (Manual override will reset it too).

Cleaning Recommendations:

Cause for clogged Filtration Discs:

Water-formed deposits may cause clogging of the Filtration discs. The formation of these deposits depends on the quality of the water source and environmental conditions like temperature, pH, light, duration of filtration and more.

Common water-formed deposits are:

  • Biological or organic deposits (mostly mucous or oily to the touch, beige, brown or green in color)
  • Iron oxide (rust) or other metal oxides
  • Carbonates (white or gray deposit)
  • Combinations of the above

If these deposits cannot be eliminated by pretreatment of the water, we recommend the following cleaning procedure:

Material and Equipment:

  • A well-ventilated working place.
  • 2 small containers (1 liter), 2 large containers (15 liter) and a stirring stick, all resistant to chemicals, preferably of polypropylene.
  • Plastic rope to tie up the disc.
  • Sodium Hypochlorite NaOCl – Strong oxidizing liquid, commercial concentration: 10%. Oxidizes and removes organic and biological deposits.
  • Hydrochloric Acid HCl – Very corrosive liquid, commercial concentration: 30%. Dissolves and removes carbonates, iron oxide, and other deposits.
  • Safety equipment: safety glasses, gloves, long pants, long sleeved shirt and shoes.

ATTENTION !
While working with chemicals protect yourself with the necessary safety equipment:

  • Safety glasses, gloves, protective clothing
  • Work in a well-ventilated area
  • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions

Cleaning Organic and Biological Deposits:

  • Open the filter and remove dirty discs.
  • Attention – Never open the filter before the pressure has been released.
  • Arrange the discs loosely on the plastic rope.
  • Prepare a 5% Sodium Hypochlorite solution: pour 5 liters of water into one of the large containers add 5 liters of Sodium Hypochlorite (10%) into the water.
  • Soak the discs in the solution so that both sides are covered. To achieve maximum cleaning, agitate the discs several times with a stirring stick.
  • Contact time with cleaning solution: up to 8 hours.
  • Remove the discs carefully from the solution, put them in the second large container and rinse them very well with clean water before placing them back in the filter.
  • The recommendation is to wash the cleaned discs again in the filter to ensure that all chemical residues ware removed.
  • The cleaning solution can be used for several sets of discs. As the cleaning activity of the solution deteriorates, it may be necessary to soak the discs for a longer time.

Cleaning Carbonates and Iron Deposits:

  • Open the filter and remove the dirty discs.
  • Attention – Never open the filter before the pressure has been released.
  • Arrange the discs loosely on the plastic rope.
  • Prepare a 5% Solution of Hydrochloric Acid: pour 10 liters of water into one of the large containers carefully add 2 liters of Hydrochloric Acid (30%) into the water.
  • Soak the discs in the solution so that both sides will be covered.
  • NOTE: Carbonates react violently with hydrochloric acid (foaming, gas evolution).
  • To achieve maximum cleaning, agitate the discs several times with a stirring stick.
  • Contact time with cleaning solution: 1 – 8 hours.
  • Remove the discs carefully from the solution and rinse them well with clean water before placing them back in the filter.
  • The recommendation is to wash the cleaned discs again in the filter to ensure that all chemical residues ware removed.
  • The cleaning solution can be used for several sets of discs. It may be necessary to soak the discs for a longer period of time as the cleaning activity of the solution deteriorates.

Cleaning Complex Deposits:

If the composition of the deposit is not known, perform the following test:

  • Take 5 discs for the test.
  • Soak 2 discs in a 5% Sodium Hypochlorite Solution.
  • Preparation of the solution: pour 1 cup of water into a small container, then add 1 cup of Sodium Hypochlorite (10% NaOCl).
  • Soak 2 discs in a 5% Hydrochloric Acid Solution.
  • Preparation of the solution: pour 2½ cups (= 500ml) of water into a small container, then add  carefully
  • ½ cup (= 100ml) of Hydrochloric Acid (30% HCL).
  • Keep one disc as a control.
  • Observe the cleaning process: If one of the solutions removes all of the deposit, clean the discs in that solution according to the instructions above.
  • If neither solution removes the deposit completely, continue with the test procedure.
  • Remove the discs from both solutions, Wash them with running water and soak them in the second solution: put the two discs, which have been in the Sodium Hypochlorite Solution, in the Hydrochloric Acid Solution, and the other way around.
  • Check the cleaning process: If one of the treatments removes all of the deposit, clean all of the discs following the same two-step procedure in the exact same order. Wash the discs well between the two cleaning processes.
  • If the deposit hasn’t been completely removed, send a set of untreated discs to the laboratory for further examination.

AMIAD LIMITED WARRANTY

  1. This certificate applies to Amiad Water Systems Ltd. (“Amiad”) products purchased by you (the “Buyer”) from Amiad unless specifically agreed otherwise in writing by Amiad. This Warranty extends only to the original purchaser, and is not transferable to anyone who subsequently purchases, leases, or otherwise obtains the product from the original purchaser.

  2. Amiad hereby warrants that the products are and will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. Amiad warrants that it will correct manufacturing defects in the products, in accordance with the conditions set out in this Warranty.

  3. This Warranty is enforceable for a period of 12 months after the date upon which the products were delivered (the “Warranty Period”).

  4. In the event that during the Warranty Period the Buyer discovers a defect in material and/or workmanship in any product or part (the “Defective Product”), it shall submit a written complaint to Amiad using Amiad’s standard Buyer Complaint Form. For the receipt of the Buyer Complaint Form, the submission of the complaint or any questions please contact your service representative.

  5. Upon written demand by Amiad the Buyer shall return the Defective Product – or a sample thereof – to Amiad, at Amiad’s cost. If the Buyer ships any such Defective Product, Amiad suggests the Buyer package it securely and insure it for value, as Amiad assumes no liability for any loss or damage occurring during shipment. Provided however that in the event Amiad determines that this Warranty does not apply to such product, Buyer shall promptly reimburse Amiad for such cost (including freight and customs).  Anyreturned product or part must be accompanied by the Warranty certificate and the purchase invoice. It is clarified that the Buyer may not return the Defective Product unless such return was coordinated and approved by Amiad in advance.

  6. Amiad’s obligation under this Warranty shall be limited to, at Amiad’s option, the repair or exchange, free of charge, of the product or any part which may prove defective under normal use and service during the Warranty Period. The provision of a repair or replacement of a product during the Warranty Period will result in an extension of the Warranty Period by an additional period of 12 months, provided that the total accumulated Warranty Period shall in any event be no more than 18 months from the date upon which the products were delivered.

  7. This Warranty is valid on the condition that the products are installed according to Amiad’s instructions as expressed in Amiad’s instruction manuals and according to the technical limitations as stipulated in Amiad’s literature or as stated by a representative of Amiad.

  8. This Warranty will not apply to damaged or defective products resulting from or related to:
    (i) Fire, flood, power surges or failures or any other catastrophe and/or unforeseen occurrence, such as but not limited to those for which the Buyer is customarily insured for, or any force majeure events;
    (ii) Fault, abuse or negligence of the Buyer;
    (iii) Intake water not meeting the agreed standards, as set forth in a written document, approved by Amiad, or improper storage;
    (iv) Improper or unauthorized use of the product or related parts by the Buyer, including Buyer’s failure to operate the product in conformity with the recommendations and instructions of Amiad, as set forth in Amiad’s manuals and other written materials, the operation of the product other than by a trained and qualified operator, or improper installation of the product by a third party not authorized by Amiad;
    (v) Performance by the Buyer of maintenance or operation other than in conformity with the recommendations and instructions of Amiad, or other than in accordance with procedures defined in the literature supplied for products (including the timely replacement of requisite parts), and for services provided other than by a trained and qualified advanced operator; or
    (vi) Any alteration, modification, foreign attachment to or repair of the products, other than by Amiad or its authorized technical representatives.

  9. In no event shall Amiad be liable to the Buyer or any third party for any damages to property, or for any intangible or economic loss, including loss of profits, loss of customers or damage to reputation, for any damages, including indirect, special, consequential damages, or punitive damage arising out of or in connection with this Warranty, or arising out of or in connection with the product’s performance or failure to perform, even if it has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

  10. Amiad will be excused for failure to perform or for delay in performance hereunder if such failure or delay is due to causes beyond its reasonable control or force majeure preventing or hindering performance.

  11. This Warranty set forth herein is the only contractual warranty given by Amiad and is provided in lieu of any other warranties created by any documentation, packaging or otherwise.

  12. Amiad makes no warranty whatsoever in respect to accessories or parts not supplied by Amiad. In the event that Amiad is required to correct a Defective Product or product not covered by this Warranty, it will do so solely in consideration for additional fees.

  13. The parties will actively endeavor to amicably settle any dispute arising between them. In the event that the parties are unable to reach an equitable settlement of such dispute, any claim or lawsuit related to the Warranty, its validity execution, its performance be brought before only the courts of Tel-Aviv, Israel. Israeli law will govern the Warranty, to the exclusion of any conflict of law rules.
