Introduction
The FILTOMAT M100 Series Filters are sophisticated, yet easy-to-operate
automatic filters, with a self-cleaning mechanism driven by a hydraulic
turbine. The FILTOMAT M100 Series is designed to work with various types of
screens in filtration degrees from 500 to 80 micron, and is available in 4″,
6″, 8″ and 10″ inlet/outlet diameter.
The FILTOMAT M100 Series filters are configured to meet your specific needs
according to flow rates and water quality. These filters can be installed as
stand-alone units for low flow rates, or assembled in a group on a manifold
when high flow rates and/or a large screen area are required. The filters are
delivered fully assembled, requiring a simple connection to the inlet and
outlet and to the drain.
General Description Water enters the filter through the inlet pipe and passes
through a coarse screen which is designed to protect the cleaning mechanism
from large dirt particles. It should not accumulate large quantities of
suspended solids and is not cleaned automatically. The water then flows
through a fine screen that filters out the smaller particles. Clean water then
flows from the filter through the outlet. The particles form a “filtration
cake” which accumulates on the fine screen surface. The cake build-up
increases the pressure differential across the fine screen, and at a pre-set
value (0.5bar; 7psi) the automatic self-cleaning cycle begins. Clean water
continues to flow through the outlet. The clean water flow is maintained
during this back-flush cycle. Suction nozzles sweep across the surface of the
fine screen pulling debris off and exhausting it out of the drain port.
This innovative self-cleaning process, utilizes the back-flush technique and
dirt collector to effectively remove the dirt particles from the fine screen,
and provide an uninterrupted downstream flow during the cycle.
The M100 Series filters are hydraulically operated units. No external power
source is required. This type of control enables operation at remote
installation sites. Alternatively, where electricity is available, an
electronic controller can also be incorporated into the filter.

Self-Cleaning Cycle
The automatic flushing cycle described below takes a few seconds and does not
interrupt the supply of process water.
Water flows from the inlet through the coarse and fine screens to the outlet.
At a pre-set pressure differential (0.5 bar –7 psi), the controller activates
the piston and opens the flushing valve. The water from the rotor chamber
flows out the drain. The pressure in the rotor chamber drops, releasing a
strong flushing stream that flows through the filter.
This drop in pressure and corresponding release of the back flush stream
create suction at the nozzle tips. This effect actuates spot cleaning directly
in front of the openings of each nozzle on the inner surface of the fine
screen. The water and particles passing through the hydraulic rotor cause the
dirt collector to rotate, and the piston moves in an axial direction to the
opposite end of the filter.
The combination of rotational and axial movement of the dirt collector
assembly ensures that the nozzles sweep the entire inner surface of the fine
screen.
When the first stroke is completed, the flushing valve closes and after a very
short interval, the controller activates the second back flush stroke. The
dirt collector assembly spins, moving with the piston in the opposite
direction and returning to its original position.
This self-cleaning process takes between 815 seconds, depending on the
operating pressure.

Installation
Read these instructions carefully before installing and operating the filter.
Design Recommendations
If a prolonged pipeline fill time causes a temporary high flow and low
pressure situation, it is recommended that you install a pressure sustaining
valve downstream of the filter. The pressure-sustaining valve will ensure a
controlled fill-up of the line.
The upstream pressure source should not drop below 30psi (2bar) during the
rinse cycle. If this cannot be ensured, consult the manufacturer.
If continued water delivery is essential even during “down time” maintenance
periods, it is recommended that a manual or automatic by-pass be installed,
and that isolating valves be installed up and downstream of each filter unit
for isolation purposes.
Avoid placing the drainage pipe on a rising slope to minimize backpressure.
Secure the open end of the drain pipe to prevent movement during the rinse
cycle. It is recommended to install a mechanical non-return valve downstream
of the filter to prevent backflow damage to
the screen. It is recommended to install a pressure gauge on the three-way
valve. Check that there is sufficient space to remove the lid assembly and the
screen from the filter for troubleshooting.
Preparations for Installation
Ensure suitable lighting at the area of the filter to enable good visibility
and safe maintenance. Arrange suitable platforms and safety barriers to enable
easy, safe access to the filter. Allow a convenient approach and enough space
for dismantling and maintenance.
Installation Procedure
Ensure the direction of flow is according to the arrows marked on the filter
housing. 1. Connect a minimum of 3″ (75 mm) pipe to the exhaust valve. The
exhaust pipe should be designed so that it creates
minimal resistance to flow of 20m3/h (88 US-gpm). Water should be allowed to
flow to atmosphere freely from the exhaust pipe. 2. Connect a minimum of 1″
(25mm) flexible tube to the rinse controller drain port. Ensure this drain
line is open to atmosphere.
IMPORTANT!!
Prevent static back pressure or reverse flow through the filter. Install a
manual or a hydraulic valve downstream of the filter.
NOTE: The filter may enter flushing mode automatically, without prior warning.

Preparations
Before using the filter for the first time, go through the following check-
list carefully. No special training is required to carry out these activities.
Check that the upstream pressure at the filter inlet is more than 2bar (30psi)
during the rinse cycle. Check that the filter is mounted in the correct flow
direction. Check that all the control tubes are connected properly and that
all connections are tight. The nominal diameter of the drainpipe should be at
least 3″ (75mm). If the recommended upstream and downstream isolation valves
have been installed, check that they are shut.
Getting Started
First operation of the filter
After completing the preparation check-list above, perform the following
steps: 1. Slowly open the isolating valve at the filter inlet. Water will flow
into the filter. 2. Check for leaks and repair if necessary. 3. Check that the
minimum inlet pressure remains 2bar (30psi) or higher. 4. Slowly open the
isolating valve at the outlet of the filter. 5. If there is a by-pass valve,
close it slowly. 6. Ensure the flow through the filter does not exceed the
filter’s published maximum flow rate. 7. Start a manual flush by pressing the
push button on the controller panel. 8. During the self-cleaning cycle, check
the pressure at the filter inlet and in the rotor chamber.
NOTE: The minimum pressure in the rotor chamber should be 1.5bar (22psi) lower
than the inlet pressure.

Troubleshooting
Problem The filter does not flush
Possible Cause Valves are closed Pressure differential is not correct
Excessive pressure in the rotor chamber
Insufficient inlet pressure (less than 2 bar–30 psi)
Drain pipes are not clear Inlet valves not fully open
Pressure differential exceeds Coarse filter is blocked 0.7 bar (10 psi) during normal operation
Solution
Open valves
Perform a manual flush as follows: 1. Close the filter outlet valve 2. Check
that the filter outlet and inlet pressures are
equal 3. Perform a manual flush as in item 7, page 9. 4. Check the pressures
at the inlet valve and in the
rotor chamber
Check if drain lines are clear. If necessary replace with a larger (diameter)
flush drain line, or shorten the existing lines.
Open inlet valves to maximum. Increase the inlet pressure or throttle the
outlet to increase pressure during the flush cycle.

downstream (outlet) valve and isolate the filter from the water system. 3. Use
the manual start function of the electronic flushing controller and start a
flushing cycle to release the
pressure of the filter housing.
Removing the Screen and the Dirt Collector
1. Drain the filter as described above.
2. Unscrew and remove the nuts from the filter’s lid bolts [1] but do not
remove the long bolt nut! [2] 3. Open the lid by pulling it [3] and carefully
leave it to hang on the long bolt [4]. Do not remove the long bolt’s nut!
Note: Attempting to remove the screen from the piston-side of the filter will
cause damage to the system.

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). Any returned 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
