  • Page 10: Description Of Filter Fma-3000

    Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual – FMA 3000 4. – DESCRIPTION OF FILTER FMA-3000 The filter consists of an outer casing which houses three distinct chambers. The first one is a prefiltering chamber which coincides with the filter water inlet, and where the Coarse Mesh is located, the second one is a FILTERING CHAMBER where the fine mesh is located and where the filtering process takes place and the third one, which is a cleaning chamber.
  • Page 11 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual – FMA 3000 reaching a few microns away from the mesh. The location of these nozzles in the suction scanner has been designed to come into contact with the entire inner surface of the mesh, thanks to the spiral movement provided to the scanner by the electric motor by combining longitudinal displacement and rotation.
