CHAPTER 1 Introduction and Machine Overview INTRODUCTION The SWECO White Water Filter (WWF) provides high flow-rate, fine mesh centrifugal screening to remove all particles larger than the screen mesh opening with no dependence on differences in specific gravity. The incoming flow enters the unit and travels up through the influent (center feed) pipe of the WWF and directs out of the numerous internal feed pipes through the adjustable feed nozzles (Refer to Figure 1-1).

Set-Up Adjustments and Operation This section discusses notification of damages, mounting instructions and the various parts and their functions for the operation of a SWECO White Water Filter. NOTIFICATION OF DAMAGE Check the packing and the machine for damage when the machine is delivered.
Set-Up Adjustments and Operation PIPING -- FEED, ACCEPTS AND REJECTS The WWF60 should have a valve installed ahead of the feed pipe to help control the flow. The standard feed has a 12 inch stub connection located on the center feed pipe at the bottom of the unit. If using an automatic valve for turning the flow on and off for interrupted flow cleaning cycles, locate it closely to the units feed pipe (see Figure 2-1 showing inlet piping).

Set-Up Adjustments and Operation BACK SPRAY PIPING AND ARRANGEMENT The WWF60 unit has (4) four back spray bars located on the outside of the screen cage, 90° apart, which include high pressure nozzles to keep the screens clean (reference Figure 1-1). Each bar contains numerous spray nozzles that direct a spray inward against the screen surfaces.

Set-Up Adjustments and Operation INFLUENT FLOW The WWF60 model has an influent pipe that directs the feed flow out of numerous internal feed pipes through the adjustable feed nozzles. Adjust these nozzles on the end of the pipe to direct the flow up or down with respect to the screen cage.
Page 17
Set-Up Adjustments and Operation White Water Filter (WWF60) The flow capacity is dependent upon the characteristics of the white water being treated and can also be determined by the application. Both the feed consistency and the mesh size and type used for the screen panels can cause excessive feed that can result in a high rejects flow and internal rejects overflow.
White Water Filter. For more information contact your SWECO Representative. SCREEN INSTALLATION The WWF60-4L uses (36) 10 inch x 20 inch screen panels, the WWF60-5L use (36) 10 inch x 20 inch and (18) 10 inch x 10 inch screen panels, and the WWF60-6L uses (54) 10 inch x 20 inch screen panels.
