Pressure sand filter
Sand filter - Sand filters are used for water purification. There are three main types; rapid (gravity) sand filters upflow sand filters slow sand filter s All three methods are used extensively in the water industry throughout the world. If the pressure in the filter drops then this indicates that the filter is not getting sufficient pool water through the circulation system.
This could be due to blocked skimmers and sumps inside the pool, restricted suction pipes in the balance tank, or the suction pipes from the pool are blocked off or restricted. pressure sand filter consists of a pressure vessel-this could be either vertical or horizontal-fitted with a set of frontal pipe work and valves, graded silica quartz sand supported by layers of graded under bed consisting of pebbles and gravels, a top distributor to distribute the incoming water uniformly throughout the cross section of the filter, and an under drain system to collect filtered water.
Sand dunes are not only made of sand but also of water. You don't have to dig very far to see the moisture in the sand. One of the unique features of sand is that it helps filter water that passes through it. Go out to the sand and have the students dig into the sand and describe what they find. Talk about why they think it is cool and wet. Ask the students where they think the water came from and where they think it goes. Doing Castles in the Sand prior to this activity helps students understand how sand and water work together through a process called capillary action. Raw water flows down wards through the filter bed and as the suspended matter- which has usually been treated by addition of a coagulant like alum- is retained on the sand surface and between the sand grains immediately below the surface. There is steady rise in the loss of head as the filter process continues and the flow reduces once the Pressure sand filter drop across the filter is excessive.
The Pressure sand filter is now taken out of service and cleaning of the filter is effected by flow reversal. To assist in cleaning the bed, the backwash operation is often preceded by air agitation through the under drain system. The process of air scouring agitates the sand with a scrubbing action, which loosens the intercepted particles. The filter is now ready to be put back into service.

Also the isolating ball valves could be partially turned off or blocked with debris, or even a blocked filter basket in the pump to a blocked pump chamber or impellor inside the pump, or finally a restricted inlet to the multiport fitted to the filter. Further investigation will be needed to find the reasons. If the plantroom is below water level, make sure you can isolate the pool totally including any returns and that the ball valves are installed in the correct direction. If the pump appears to be the problem and you need help with your investigations, please use the Contact Page to book an appointment for a PSP engineer to visit.

suction pressure of the filter is weakk and needs a rock 2 keep basket in?
My pool pump pushs out water into the pool with fine pressure but the filter has hardly any suction not even enough to vacuum and even needs a small rock to keep the basket in place the hoses gasket and filter have been replaced backwashed many times pump is a 1hp and pool is 24' round can you pls help???
there's a clog somewhere or your valves are shut off.

How pressure sand filter works?
pressure sand filter consists of a pressure vessel-this could be either vertical or horizontal-fitted with a set of frontal pipe work and valves, graded silica quartz sand supported by layers of graded under bed consisting of pebbles and gravels, a top distributor to distribute the incoming water uniformly throughout the cross section of the filter, and an under drain system to collect filtered water.
Raw water flows down wards through the filter bed and as the suspended matter- which has usually been treated by addition of a coagulant like alum- is retained on the sand surface and between the sand grains immediately below the surface. There is steady rise in the loss of head as the filter process continues and the flow reduces once the pressure drop across the filter is excessive.
The Pressure sand filter is now taken out of service and cleaning of the filter is effected by flow reversal. To assist in cleaning the bed, the backwash operation is often preceded by air agitation through the under drain system. The process of air scouring agitates the sand with a scrubbing action, which loosens the intercepted particles.

Water is pushed through a bed of filter sand and removed through a set of lateral tubes at the bottom.
The filter area of a sand filter is equal to the area of the filter itself. For example, a 24" filter will have 3.14 sqft of filter area. Only the top 1" of sand is actually used to filter the water. The principle behind this filter is that water is pushed through the filter sand, somewhat like an espresso machine.
Dirty water goes in the top and clean water exits out the bottom. As the filter sand becomes plugged with debris from the pool, the pressure increases on the filter and the water flow drops. In order to clean the filter, you just run it in reverse and dump the waste water; this is referred to as "backwashing" the filter.
Once the filter is backwashed, you move to the rinse mode and that repacks the sand and then back to filter. This has to be done manually every few weeks. From a hydraulics standpoint, a backwash valve is typically the most inefficient piece of equipment you can add to a swimming pool system. Should the sand ever become really dirty, it is easily and inexpensively replaced. In terms of particle size filtered out, sand is the lease effective method – it can allow smaller particles to pass back into the pool.
