ABSTRACT:
In a modular water filtration and companion backwash assemblage, a reservoir is sectioned into an upper, supply chamber and a lower, drain chamber by a plurality of modular, horizontally co-planar filter cells. A carriage assembly is selectively positioned over an individual cell and a depending backwash hood is lowered to isolate, hydraulically, the modular cell. Water is pumped upwardly, out of the hood, expanding and scrubbing the filter media. Jetwash probes intensify the cleansing action, and a baffle plate having displacement accelerators ensures equal but swift upward displacement of backwash waters. Each cell is sequentially backwashed on a continuous basis, allowing uninterrupted operation of the other filtration modules.
