Features of EATON DCF 400 Mechanically Cleaned Filters

  • Automation Minimizes Disposable Waste and Labor Costs
  • Elimination or reduction in disposable filter bags and cartridges for reduced operator handling inventory costs and landfill waste
  • Reduction in product loss, more thorough contaminant purge in a highly concentrated waste stream
  • Virtually maintenance free, near 100% uptime
  • Compact design, lower capital cost to fit most installations
  • Stainless steel screens from 15 micron slots to 1/4″ perforations to handle a wide range of filtration needs
  • Available with UHMWPE, Urethane-, Teflon, or Kynar-Cleaning Discs

The DCF is the best self-cleaning filtration solution for minimizing product loss in high-value and/or high viscosity fluids.

When processing water and water-like liquids where a low initial investment is demanded, DCF single actuator models deliver tremendous benefits. Available in 400, 800, and 1600 sizes, The DCF-Series enables operation at a vast range of flow rates and retentions.

The DCF-800 and DCF-1600 are also available in twin actuator models, which are designed for the rigors of processing highly viscous, abrasive, sticky, or otherwise hard-to-process liquids. DCF Filters are suitable for a broad spectrum of challenging applications and accommodate a wide range of flow and retention requirements.

A unique circular cleaning disc design (MCF) ensures intimate contact with the screen to thoroughly and uniformly clean the media.
