Disc Filter Technology

Grooves in the disc rings criss-cross to form a network that traps debris between and on the outside of the discs.

How It Works

As dirty water is pumped into the filter, and pressure increases, the water compresses the disc rings together tightly. The water is then forced to flow through the grooves of the disc rings, where debris is trapped, releasing only clean water to the irrigation system.
