Automatic Filtering Pump Skid System FAQs

What is an automatic filtering pump skid system?
It’s a skid-mounted, pre-engineered filtration package designed to remove suspended solids from liquids. The system operates automatically, triggering cleaning cycles based on pressure differential, timers, or sensor input—reducing the need for manual maintenance.

What kind of filters are used?
The system may include self-cleaning screen filters, disc filters, or media filters depending on the application and required filtration level.

Can I integrate with my facility's control system?
Yes. These skids are often equipped with PLCs and can be integrated with your SCADA, BMS, or other facility-wide automation platforms.

Do these systems need frequent maintenance?
Very little. That’s the beauty of automated filtration—minimal manual involvement is required. Systems are designed for reliability and typically include alerts for when maintenance is actually needed.

Why do companies and municipalities invest in these systems?
They’re often driven by pain points like equipment downtime, rising maintenance labor costs, or inconsistent process water quality. Automatic Filtering pump skids solve these challenges with a compact, reliable, and easy-to-integrate design that saves time, money, and headaches.
