Automatic Self Cleaning Filter V/s Pressure Sand Filter: Regards, Manzoor Khan 9699788387

This document compares an automatic self-cleaning filter to a pressure sand filter. Some key differences include: 1) The automatic self-cleaning filter cleans itself continuously with a very short backwash cycle time, while the pressure sand filter requires manual cleaning with a very long backwash cycle time. 2) The automatic filter uses much less waste water per day for backwashing and maintains more consistent filtration quality between cycles. 3) It has a much smaller footprint and requires low maintenance and operating costs due to little manual operation or backwash water needed.
