Leopold® filters include a complete filter control package to keep a constant watch on the essential parameters of the processes in the filter plant — both upstream and downstream. These automatic control systems continuously monitor filtrate quality to ensure that it meets regulatory requirements. They continuously monitor the condition of the filter media to ensure optimum filtration. And they automatically adjust flow rates to compensate for customer demand changes.

By continuously monitoring water quality and filter condition, Leopold® filter controls can automatically initiate and control the backwash sequence. This means the filter is cleaned when it needs to be cleaned, as frequently or infrequently as changing conditions require, and as long as necessary to clean the media. Filter run times and product quality are optimized at the lowest possible cost. And by keeping the filter media well-conditioned, the life of the filter can be lengthened.

By automatically sequencing backwash properly, Leopold® filter controls help avoid surges and potentially disastrous upsets which can damage a filter system and cost money.
