PTA Effluent Filter

SHARE
The PTA Effluent Filter reduces the concentration of suspended matter in the effluent leaving the septic tank. This suspended matter could otherwise cause premature clogging of other system components. The effluent filter is a safety feature that is suitable for all types of septic system installations.

Premier Tech Environment (PTE) has developed a complete line of decentralized wastewater treatment products and services. Its PTE EFT-080 Effluent Filter is the first effluent filter to combine the principles of lamellar settling and physical filtration. This innovative solution guarantees superior treatment levels to protect your septic installation.

Advantages

  • Robust and resistant
  • Low-cost solution
  • Longer life of any soil absorption system
  • Higher treatment levels to protect the environment
  • Quick and easy installation
  • Simple maintenance
Although the main purpose of a septic tank is to remove solids from the sewage, liquid effluent from the tank always contains a substantial amount of fine suspended particles. PTE Effluent Filter reduces the suspended solids content of tank effluent and thereby prevents premature clogging of the soil absorption system. The PTE Effluent Filter is both a filtering element and a safety device that is suitable for all types of septic installation.
  • Polyethylene and PVC construction
  • PVC adapter that fits 100 mm (4`) ø DR35 and 100 mm (4`) ø SCH40 pipes
  • Total filtration area: 1,200 cm2 (185 sq. in.)
  • Filtering cartridge with 1.6 mm (1/16`) filtration slots
  • Total linear filtration: 75.5 m (248`)
  • Total inlet orifice area: 270 cm2 (42 sq. in.)
  • Handles a maximum flow rate of 10 000 l/d (2640 US gal/d)
The process is simple: wastewater entering the septic tank flows through the filtering cartridge of the PTE Effluent Filter, whose filtration slots of 1.6 mm (1/16`) retain the fraction of suspended solids that would otherwise be released to the septic system. The PTE Effluent Filter offers a simple, economical and preventive solution for extending the life and ensuring optimum performance of soil absorption systems.
  • The PTE Effluent Filter is generally installed inside the second chamber outlet of the septic tank (concrete or plastic), but can also be installed in a PTE TLF-240 Filter Container immediately downstream from the tank
  • For heavier wastewater flow applications, multiple filters can be installed in parallel, in which case the access openings must be large enough to allow safe and easy maintenance
  • Each filter should be supported by a piece of 25 mm (1`) PVC pipe section which leans against the tank wall in which it is installed
