Equipment Description from Dispatch Images
The dispatch visuals clearly show the scale and professionalism involved in the shipment process.
1. MS Sand Filter Vessel
A large blue MS (Mild Steel) vessel is seen being loaded carefully using lifting machinery. The vessel is the core component of the filtration system. It is designed to withstand high pressure and provide long operational life. The cylindrical structure ensures uniform filtration and efficient water flow distribution.
2. Industrial Backwash Pump
The blue industrial pump shown in the images is responsible for backwashing operations. Backwashing is essential to clean the sand bed and maintain filtration efficiency. The pump is mounted securely and prepared for safe export transportation.
3. Motorized Valve Assembly
A red and blue motorized valve unit is packed properly for export. The motorized valve automates flow control, enabling smooth filtration and backwash cycles without manual intervention.
4. Sand Media Bags
The shipment includes 24 bags of high-quality sand media per system. These media layers are responsible for removing suspended solids, turbidity, and impurities from water.
5. MS Flange Pipes & Structural Parts
MS flange pipes and structural components are included for proper system connection and installation at the project site.
6. PLC Control Panel
The PLC panel ensures automation and control of filtration operations. It improves system efficiency and reduces manual dependency.
All components were carefully inspected, wrapped, and secured to prevent transit damage.
What is a Sand Filter System?
A sand filter is a widely used water treatment system that removes suspended particles from water by passing it through a layered sand bed.
Working Principle
- Raw water enters the MS vessel.
- Water flows through layers of graded sand media.
- Suspended solids get trapped within the sand bed.
- Clean water exits through outlet pipes.
- Backwash pump cleans the media periodically.
This simple yet effective technology makes sand filters ideal for large-scale applications.
Applications in Bangladesh
The exported sand filter systems are expected to serve multiple sectors in Bangladesh, including:
- Municipal water treatment plants
- Textile and industrial processing units
- Commercial complexes
- Agricultural irrigation projects
- Residential water supply systems
With increasing industrial growth in Bangladesh, demand for reliable water filtration systems continues to rise.
Manufacturing Excellence Behind the 48/72 Units
Producing 4872 sand filter units requires:
