Our Technology
With over three decades experience in automatic filtration of water, Filtersafe filters are equipped not only with the technology but also the know-how to integrate successfully into water industrial applications. Our filters’ tailored designs and simple modularity enable us to supply from 10 microns upwards, with flow rates from 50-5000m³/hr in single unit and limitless capacity in a modular configurations. Filtersafe® brings unrivalled value, effectiveness and durability to even the most demanding filtration solutions.
The multi-layered sintered course of the last decade.
An advanced automated filter cleaning sequence that ensures optimum flow rates and filtration performance where others fail, using a set of uniquely crafted and patented technologies:
Unique, patented and cutting-edge technologies

nozzlex
EVERCLEAR
smartweave
Our smartweave™ screen technology ensures minimal sediment intake to any downstream secondary use.
Filtersafe’s® smartweave™ multi-layered sintered screen is a unique and exclusive weave-wire mesh specifically designed for challenging water conditions. Whether seawater, brackish water, turbid river water, or industrial waste water, the smartweave screen filters out the undesirable elements.
Multi layered sintered structure smartweave™ is comprised of four stainless steel weave-wire screen layers. The unique composition of weaves are sintered together to create a strong, durable, reinforced filtering element requiring no additional support.
nozzlex
Self cleaning cycle for maximum filter efficiency, improved flow rate, and shorter filtering process.
nozzlex® scans the entire smartweave™ screen removing all matter, disposing of the reject water through the flushing chamber.
The patented nozzles remove 100% of matter that builds upon the screen, which increases the filter’s flow rate and gives you more filtered water for whatever you need – perhaps filling up your ballast tanks quickly, or pretreatment filtration for desalination.
The most innovative aspect of the nozzlex technology is that it has absolutely ZERO wear on the screen, due to the firm but minimal force the nozzle is calculated to have with the screen. This extends the lifespan of the nozzles, the screen, and your filter system as a whole.
EVERCLEAR
EVERCLEAR® produces unparalleled removal rates of organic matter and TSS – an imperative in combating marine bio-invasions.
At the heart of every Filtersafe® filter lies an advanced automated filter cleaning sequence in EVERCLEAR. Its success largely revolves around a set of uniquely crafted and patented technologies:
- smartweave™ high-performance filtration screens
- nozzlex™ proximity nozzles
Customized Features
Flexibility in Design & Installation
Our filters have the flexibility to be configured in a variety of positions and spatial arrangements.
The vertical filter configuration operates in the exact same manner as a horizontally positioned unit and to the same performance standard, whilst substantially reducing its area footprint.
Vertical Configuration
Horizontal Configuration
turbo and superturbo for High Sediment Loads
All Filtersafe automatic screen filters can be equipped with our unique turbo™ or superturbo™ technologies, which are designed to increase the filter’s capability to operate in high dirt-load situations. This unique feature gives our filters a distinct market advantage in challenging sediment-rich environments.
Modular Designs
The BS Series’ modular design allows for numerous configuration options and is particularly helpful in retrofit installations.
