PR AQUA ROTOFILTER™ DRUM FILTERRotary microscreen drum filters are ideal for the removal of fine suspended solids in recirculating systems where water reuse strategies are imperative—zoos, aquariums, greenhouses, aquaculture systems, wastewater treatment plants, and more. PR Aqua Rotofilters are trusted by facilities worldwide for critical filtration needs. Constructed of the highest-quality materials and engineered for the rigors of commercial aquaculture, PR Aqua Rotofilters provide exceptional reliability and a long service life. Designed with the needs of the commercial operator in mind, the filters are also inexpensive to operate. Rotofilters are also available in two configurations; fully-enclosed or frame-mounted. With flow rate capacities from 50 to 7,000 gpm (11 to 1590 M3/HR) and micron ratings from 11–80 (custom sizes available upon request) there is sure to be a Rotofilter that meets the requirements of your application.

Benefits• Manufactured in North America with factory-direct service and spare parts.• Removes excess feed, and other organic matter.• Continuous filtering, even during backwashing.• Very low operating cost and minimal backwash water consumption.• Superior screen design for long service life.• Ideal for sand filter backwash recovery.
