During filtration, solid particles accumulate in the collection tank at the bottom. This tank is periodically purged through a discharge valve. The valve’s operation can be either manual, requiring user intervention, or fully automatic, triggered by a controller.

Hydrocyclone filters separate suspended solids from liquids using the principle of centrifugal force, with no moving parts or filter media. When the water mixture enters the hydrocyclone's conical body at a high-speed, tangential angle, it creates a powerful swirling vortex. This rapid rotation throws heavier particles like sand and silt to the outer wall, where they spiral down to be collected in a separation tank at the bottom. Meanwhile, the cleaner, lighter water is drawn up through the center of the vortex and exits through the top outlet, ready for use.
