Water Source
Filtration
Automatic pre-filtration for bore water, river water, dam water, recycled water, and raw water intakes — removing sediment before it reaches your downstream systems.
Clean Water Starts at the Source
The quality of your raw water supply directly impacts every system downstream — from pumps and valves to heat exchangers, irrigation emitters, and treatment processes. Effective pre-filtration at the water source is the most cost-effective way to protect your infrastructure and maintain consistent water quality.
Filtaworx automatic self-cleaning filters are designed for installation at water intake points, pump stations, and transfer lines. They handle the high and variable sediment loads typical of natural and recycled water sources, cleaning themselves automatically without operator intervention or process interruption.
Water Sources We Filter
Bore Water
Groundwater sources often contain fine sand, iron particles, and mineral precipitates that damage pumps and block downstream equipment. Pre-filtration extends equipment life significantly.
River & Creek Water
Surface water from rivers and creeks carries variable sediment loads that spike dramatically after rain events. Automatic self-cleaning operation handles these fluctuations without manual intervention.
Dam & Reservoir Water
Storage dam water contains algae, organic matter, and suspended solids that vary with season and water level. Consistent filtration ensures reliable supply regardless of conditions.
Recycled & Treated Effluent
Recycled water used for irrigation, industrial processes, or cooling often requires additional particulate removal to meet quality standards and protect downstream systems.
Stormwater Harvesting
Captured stormwater carries high debris and sediment loads. Filtaworx filters protect storage and reuse systems from contamination and pump damage.
Municipal Raw Water Intake
Water treatment plants benefit from pre-filtration at the intake to reduce the load on downstream treatment stages and protect high-value membrane systems.
Filtaworx Advantages for Water Source Filtration
Purpose-built for Australian water conditions — from pristine bore water to high-sediment flood water.
Handles Variable Loads
Automatic backwash triggered by differential pressure means the system responds to changing water quality in real time.
No Power Required
Hydraulic controller models operate entirely on system line pressure — ideal for remote pump stations and intake points.
Wide Micron Range
Screen elements available from 50 to 3,000 micron, matching the filtration grade to your specific water source and downstream requirements.
Low Water Loss
Efficient backwash cycle uses minimal water — typically less than 1% of throughput — preserving your valuable water resource.
