The Control Panel with user adjustable timers controls interval and duration of the rotor and blow down valve operation. The blowdown valve opens for approximately 10

seconds to purge the reservoir pipe of filtered dirt and debris. The Control Panel is shown with optional cycle counter and differential pressure switch which will activate rotor opera

tion if excessive pressure drop occurs. This hook-up illustrates an automatic filtration system, providing continuous production flow with mini mal product loss.
