Water filter with self-rinsing capability that includes filter housing, hollow cartridge core, and mesh filter. The filter housing includes a hollow housing with top and drain openings, a top cover with inlet and outlet ports, a one-way pressure valve, and a drain tap that includes a rod, an opening and closing knob that is connected to the rod, and an opening and closing barrier with passageway that is connected to the rod. The cartridge comprises of a tube with inlet and outlet passageways, and spray pipes with spray nozzles, and enables water to flows from the tube into the spray pipes and outside into the filter housing through the nozzles. The mesh filter has a shape of a hollow cylinder that is worn on the tube in a gap between the tube and the spray pipes.

A sanitation device for cleaning a body of water in an immersion pool of a mikvah has a housing, a driving member and a bypass passageway. The housing includes an inlet, an outlet and internal liquid passages that communicate between the inlet and outlet. The driving member is arranged to urge flow of liquid through the internal liquid passages by exerting thrust upon liquid flowing through the driving member, wherein at least part of the liquid flowing through the liquid passages bypasses flowing through the driving member by flowing through the bypass passageway towards the device's outlet.

A pipeline strainer is provided having a cavity, a screen assembly disposed in the cavity, the screen assembly having an open first end and an open second end and a screen axis extending from the open first end to the open second end, a fluid inlet arranged at the open first end of the screen assembly, such that the fluid inlet is open to an interior of the screen assembly, a fluid outlet adjacent the open first end of the screen assembly. The fluid outlet is open to a straining surface of the screen assembly. A fluid axis extends from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet where the fluid axis crosses the screen axis at or near the fluid inlet.

A rotary pressure filter suitable for use in treatment of one or more of medical products or foodstuffs, the rotary pressure filter. The rotary pressure filter comprises a filter drum that can be rotated about an axis of rotation. The rotary pressure filter comprises a plurality of filter cells arranged along an outer circumference of the filter drum, with a housing surrounding the filter drum. A process space is formed between the filter drum and the housing. The rotary pressure filter comprises at least one separating element dividing the process space into a plurality of treatment zones. At least one treatment zone is associated with a housing connector via which one or more of fluid or suspension can be introduced into the respective treatment zone.

A filter unit is disclosed that increases solids loading capacity, decreases specific flowrate during filtration, and improves backwash effectiveness. A flow shaping plate and/or flow diverting member are used to reduce flow entrance effects during reverse, backwash flow through the filter unit.

A water purification filter element is provided. The water purification filter element may include a filter bottle, a filter material, an end cover, and a water self-stopping and passing structure.

A brine injection system with a plurality of needles, which are inserted into a product and through which brine is injected into the product. Brine which does not end up in the product is collected and recycled, and during recycling, the brine flows through a filter. The filter includes a filter element, along which unfiltered brine flows in a flow-direction and through which filtered brine passes and which holds back residues in the unfiltered brine. The filter element includes a multitude of slots, each with a main extension direction which extends parallel to the flow direction of the brine.

A downspout drain filter includes a housing and a filter media. The housing defines an internal cavity, an inlet to the internal cavity along a top of the housing, and an outlet from the internal cavity along a bottom of the housing. The filter media is disposed within the internal cavity. The filter media divides the internal cavity into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The filter media is configured to trap debris in the upper chamber from fluid flowing downward through the internal cavity. The filter media is permeable such that the fluid flows from the upper chamber to the lower chamber.

A filter unit includes an upper diverter chamber having a feed outlet, a backwash inlet, and an upper diverter tube in fluid communication with the backwash inlet. The filter unit also includes a lower diverter chamber comprising a feed inlet, a backwash outlet, and a lower diverter tube in fluid communication with the backwash outlet. A diverter motor is disposed between the upper diverter chamber and the lower diverter chamber. The diverter motor is coupled to a drive shaft. An upper end of the drive shaft is coupled to the upper diverter tube and a lower end of the drive shaft is coupled to the lower diverter tube. Filter housings are in fluid communication with the upper diverter chamber and the lower diverter chamber.

The present development is a septic tank or wastewater treatment tank outlet filter cleaning device. More specifically, the device is an outlet filter cleaner for a slotted filter used to reduce solid waste transfer into a septic tank effluent. The device comprises a central shaft with at least one cleaning disc, wherein the cleaning disc comprises a body which is mounted on the shaft and wherein a plurality of fingers protrude from the body, preferably in locations substantially identical to the positions of the openings in the wall of the tube.
