Irrigation Filter Selection
Concise reference for filtration stages before drip, micro-sprinklers, and automated valve networks.
Filter Stage Guide
| Stage | Removes | Typical position |
|---|---|---|
| Sand / centrifugal | Sand, organic debris | After pump, before fine filter |
| Disc / screen | Fine particles | Before drip manifolds |
| Hydrocyclone | High sand load | Optional pre-stage on bore water |
| Auto backwash | Maintenance reduction | Large automated systems |
Why Filtration Matters
Clogging in drip emitters is usually a filtration and water-quality problem—not only a controller issue.
- Protect solenoid valves and small orifices
- Reduce maintenance on fertigation injectors
- Match filter stage to debris load
Water Source → First Stage
Start with the largest particles your source carries.
- River / canal: sand or media filter often required
- Clean bore: disc or screen may be sufficient
- Recycled water: add finer stage + more frequent backwash
