What was delivered? For this project, the customer had a self-cleaning seawater filter installed in a process line that protects vacuum compressors. The solution is supplied in 316L stainless steel with a filtration rating of 300 µm, designed for a demanding environment where operational reliability and process stability are essential.
What challenges did the customer have? Previously, the customer used a small manual filter that had to be opened and flushed for cleaning. The new solution replaces this with a fully automatic self-cleaning filter with complete controls. The filter detects when cleaning is required and automatically performs the cleaning and flushing cycle when the particle load increases.
What does this mean for the customer? The result is simpler day-to-day operation, less manual work and fewer interruptions to the system. At the same time, the solution provides improved protection of critical and costly equipment.
From Manual Filtration to Fully Automated Operation
A small filter can make a significant difference to operational reliability. In this delivery, a manual solution has been replaced with a self-cleaning seawater filter, providing a more stable process, reduced maintenance and improved protection of critical equipment.
Short version
- Ditech supplies self-cleaning filters from Forsta Filters for continuous filtration without process interruption.
- The filter cleans itself automatically when required, replacing manual cleaning in the process.
- The result is more stable operation and improved protection of critical equipment.
The installation demonstrates how properly specified filtration can deliver high performance, even in a compact format. At the same time, the delivery highlights the breadth of our range, from space-saving solutions to complete systems for aquaculture and marine processes.

Continuous Filtration Without Process Interruption
Solutions from Forsta Filters are particularly well suited for protecting critical equipment such as pumps, heat exchangers and compressors. By removing particles early in the process, wear, maintenance requirements and the risk of unexpected downtime are reduced.
Benefits of self-cleaning filters from Forsta Filters:
- Continuous filtration without process interruption
- Automatic cleaning based on actual demand
- Reduced manual maintenance
- Stable and predictable operation
- Compact design with high capacity
- Suitable for seawater and demanding environments
Ditech offers solutions in several sizes and configurations, ranging from smaller units to larger high-capacity installations. This makes it possible to tailor the filtration solution precisely to the application and operating conditions.
