To balance the system by design we must increase the air flow rate in Section 2 to bring it up to the higher pressure loss of Section 1. To correct the air flow rate for Section 2 use the Fan Laws: Q 2 new = Q 2 old * (P t loss 2 new/ P t loss 2 old)1/2. Q 2 new = 3000 * (1.165/0.93)1/2 = 3357 CFM.

Robinson Township, PA, utilizes 5 filters containing a combination of 24" of sand and 24" of 8x30 GAC. This would be considered a shallow bed system as the total GAC depth is less than 36". The average influent turbidity in the early part of February of 1999 was .57 NTU (Figure 1) with filtration providing an effluent water quality of .022 NTU.

More TSS will load the filter quickly causing excessive backwashing. Backwashing filters. Automatic backwashing is the best configuration as it cleans itself as needed and keeps the process running. As the solids build up on the media bed the flow is decreased and a differential of pressure develops between inlet and outlet.

Use this six-step calculation to determine total water volume. Figure 2. Because centrifugal separators use turbulent spinning action to separate particulate from cooling tower water, proper sizing is critical. Figure 3. Sand filters provide clean water by reversing flow through the sand bed and backwashing dirt out the top of the filter.

In most high-rate sand filters, it's time to backwash when the pressure differential reaches 18-20 psi. If the system has an inlet pressure gauge only, you should backwash when the pressure increases by 8-10 psi from initial post-backwash readings.

If you connect a differential pressure gauge between those two tanks, you will read 5 psi. There are a few different gauge designs to achieve this.

The sand should be of the quartz grade with a specific gravity in the range 2.6-2.7. Bulk density is about 1.56 g/cc. The uniformity coefficient (UC) is expressed as: UC = d 60 / d 10 where d 60 is the size of aperture through which 60% of sand passes. UC values should be less than 1.6 and usually lie between 1.3 and 1.5.

Filter Sand . The filter sand used in rapid sand filters is manufactured specifically for the purpose of water filtration. Most rapid sand filters contain 24-30 inches of sand, but some newer filters are deeper. The sand used is generally 0.4 to 0.6 mm in diameter. This is larger than the sand used in slow rate filtration.

If the dust collector is operating and the differential pressure sensor is at zero, it's an indication of a leak and that airflow is passing through the dust collector without being filtered. When new filters are installed, the reading is at its lowest effective point. As material builds up on the filters, the differential pressure increases.

A filter's pressure drop directly corresponds to a filter's air flow rate. The higher the pressure drop the more restrictive the filter is to air flow. The lower the pressure drop the easier it is for air to flow through the filter. This is important to consider when choosing a filter for your application and your HVAC unit.
