Disk Filter 2" (120 mesh), 20 m3/hour, 404 cm2

Reliable protection for your irrigation system

When working with water from open reservoirs or wells containing mechanical impurities, the Palaplast 2" disc filter serves as a critical safety component. Its primary function is to prevent clogging of drippers and nozzles, which are highly sensitive to sand and suspended solids.

Design features and efficiency

This model, featuring a flow rate of 20 m³/h and a filtration area of 404 cm², is designed for medium and large-scale irrigation systems. The key advantage of Palaplast filters lies in the quality of their polymer materials: the casing is resistant to ultraviolet radiation and agricultural fertilizers, which is vital for fertigation. The 120-mesh disc element (approx. 130 microns) ensures fine filtration, while the design allows for holding a significant volume of impurities before cleaning becomes necessary.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Easy maintenance — the disc cartridge can be removed and rinsed under running water in minutes. The large filtration area reduces the frequency of routine maintenance.
• Cons: Like any disc filter, this model requires pressure monitoring. Severe clogging can lead to a significant pressure drop, which may negatively impact water distribution efficiency.

Who is this solution for?

This filter is an optimal choice for farmers utilizing drip irrigation systems on medium-sized fields supplied by pumping stations. If your goal is to minimize the risk of costly irrigation line failure while maintaining reasonable operating costs, Palaplast products are a proven and reliable solution.
