From reverse osmosis to coarse straining, custom-designed solutions for Midwest industrial processes. In-plant surveys, application testing and complete process optimization.
Complete industrial water treatment, from softening and media filtration through reverse osmosis, deionization and EDI polishing. Installation, maintenance and training for the life of the system.
While the filtration media provides some of the filtration action, collected contaminants actually further increase efficiency. We call this phenomenon “cake formation.” The collected solids (or “cake”) trap additional contaminants. The key to making this principle work is timely cleaning – too soon and you lose the benefit, too late and the system flow becomes hindered.
Ronningen-Petter systems come factory pre-set to backwash when the differential pressure from inlet to outlet reaches 15 psi (1 bar) – typically the optimum time to initiate backwashing, although this is adjustable.
