In Dambat’s range, a manufacturer of pumps under the IBO, IBO Italy, and IPRO brands, you will find high-quality well filters that effectively protect pumps from sand and other mechanical impurities. These filters are ideal for drilled and ring wells, including as deep-well filters and filters that support the deepening of shallow wells.
Deep-well filter – when is it worth using one?
A deep-well water filter is usually installed at the inlet of the pump’s discharge pipe. Its purpose is to trap particles of sand, silt, and other impurities that could damage the pump or reduce water quality. This type of well filter is an essential component of every installation, especially where the well is located in sandy terrain.
Well filter construction
The well filters offered by Dambat have a durable, three-part design:
- cast-iron shaft in the form of a point, which stabilizes the filter in the ground,
- perforated pipe made of galvanized steel – it forms the filtering surface,
- threaded end enabling direct connection to the water system.
It is important to remember that the filter is not designed to be driven into the ground – it should be freely anchored in the soil. This is particularly important in the case of ring wells, where a “pin-type” filter supports deepening and improves water flow.
Mesh water filter – an effective barrier against impurities
Our range also includes mesh filters and mesh water filters, which can be used in various types of installations. They work well as protection in domestic pressure systems and in sets with surface and hand pumps.
Compatibility with various pump types
The IBO brand deep-well filter can be connected to:
- deep-well pumps,
- surface pumps,
- pressure pumps – single-stage and multistage,
- hand pumps, e.g. Abyssinian pumps.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is a well filter used for?
A well filter protects the pump from drawing in sand and other impurities, extending its service life and improving the quality of the water drawn.
What is the difference between a well filter and a mesh filter?
A well filter has a design adapted for installation in a well, with a cast-iron shaft and a perforated pipe. A mesh water filter is a lightweight alternative used mainly in surface and domestic installations.
Is a deep-well filter compatible with every pump?
The filters offered by Dambat are compatible with most deep-well, surface, pressure, and hand pumps. Check the connection diameter and thread type to select the right model.
Can a well filter be driven into the ground?
No. The filter should be freely anchored in the soil. Driving it into the ground may damage its construction and prevent it from operating correctly.
