Filter with manual backwash BWT PROTECTOR BW 3/4 inch 240004466

The BWT PROTECTOR BW backwash filter is a reliable solution for pre-cleaning water in domestic and industrial installations. Designed for both installers and end-users, it provides effective protection against mechanical contaminants such as sand, rust, and sediment. Its robust construction and ease of use make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

The brass head guarantees durability and corrosion resistance, while the transparent plastic cover allows for visual monitoring of the filter element's condition. The manual backwash system allows for easy removal of accumulated contaminants without the need to replace the filter cartridge – resulting in low operating costs. The filter has PZH certification, confirming its compliance with applicable sanitary and safety standards.

Key features and benefits:

• Effective filtration: Removes mechanical impurities larger than 90 μm, protecting the installation and equipment from damage.
• Manual backwash: Enables easy and quick filter cleaning without disassembly, extending the life of the filter cartridge.
• Durable construction: The brass head provides corrosion resistance and long-term use.
• Visual control: The transparent cover allows continuous monitoring of the filter condition and assessment of the need for flushing.
• Easy installation: The filter is equipped with a 3/4 inch (DN 20) internal gas parallel (BSPP) thread, making it easy to integrate into an existing water installation. The connection length is 106 mm.
• Versatile application: Ideal for use as a pre-filter for household appliances (washing machines, dishwashers), water treatment systems (softeners, iron removers) and protection of fittings/valves.
• Low operating costs: Infrequent filter cartridge replacement due to the possibility of regular backwashing.

The BWT PROTECTOR BW filter is characterized by a nominal pressure of PN 16 and is designed to operate with water up to 30°C and in an environment up to 40°C. Its performance at a pressure difference of 0.2 bar is 3.0 m³/h, ensuring adequate water flow even in more demanding conditions. The filter should be installed horizontally according to the direction of water flow indicated on the housing – it is also recommended to install shut-off valves before and after the filter for easy maintenance and service.
