Sand Eliminator
WTF Engineering Pvt. Ltd. is mainly focusing on Sand-Water Separation methods and products. The products are able to remove unwanted particle matter from pumped water well systems, residential, community, municipal, commercial and irrigation.
The Eliminator removes sand and other solids from pumped water and other fluids. There are no screens, cartridges, or filter elements. The key to removing solids is centrifugal action. As water enters the eliminator, it immediately transfers from the outer chamber to the inner chamber through tangential slots. Those slots maintain the centrifugal action in the same direction and accelerate the water into a smaller diameter chamber. That allows centrifugal action to do what gravity would do over time. So, the performance of an eliminator is predicated on the weight of a particle, and not on its size.
How does it works?
- Liquid enters the unit tangential, which creates a centrifugal flow.
- A special top inlet construction accelerates the centrifugal flow.
- Centrifugal force moves particles to the sides of the eliminator chamber.
- Solids slowly drop along the sides to the quiet collection chamber.
- Cleaned liquid is drawn up through the vortex and leaves the eliminator by the top outlet.
- Solids are either periodically or continuously purged from the collection chamber.

Features
- LOW COST FILTER: The eliminators offer low cost filtration in relation to volume m³/hr.
- NO SPARE PARTS: There are no moving parts or parts that need replacing.
- EFFICIENCY: In relation to specific gravity of solids often exceeds 40 mμ filtration in circulation systems.
- ENGINEERING: Eliminators can be installed in line or side stream in existing installations.
- MAINTENANCE ONLY: Control of purge valve (if not automatic).
Applications
Sand Eliminator has vast range of applications from a house to industries, few of them are listed below:
- Sand Eliminator helps in removing suspended particles from cooling water thus helping maintain design efficiencies and extending the life of cooling towers, heat exchangers, chillers, and evaporative condensers.
- Industrial Sand Eliminators are specifically designed to remove the solids from the fluid stream and safely purge them to another location and helps in increasing process efficiency and reduces maintenance costs.
- For sand in ground water that is causing damage to your submersible or turbine pump, we offer effective water filtration with low flow pump protection sand eliminator and high flow pump sand eliminator.
- For irrigation and other agricultural sand problems, including drip, sprinkler, and flood irrigation, we have our sand eliminator.
- Sand Eliminators remove troublesome sand from pump discharge to protect water meters, water treatment systems and downstream processes from particle clogging & abrasive wear.
- Sand Eliminator is uniquely designed to remove unwanted sand from our residential water supply. The system can be installed for an automated purge of sand and provide maintenance-free operation.
