Meta Description: YUTANK rotary drum microfilter features automatic backwashing, removable screens, continuous operation, and a self-cleaning system, making it an ideal choice for RAS aquaculture, fish farms, hatcheries, and koi ponds worldwide.
In modern recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), solid-liquid separation is the primary cornerstone of maintaining stable water quality. Uneaten feed, fish waste, suspended particles, and algae can rapidly degrade water conditions, overload biofilters, trigger disease outbreaks, and reduce aquatic survival rates. For commercial fish farms, hatcheries, and intensive aquaculture operators across the globe, a reliable, automatic, and low-maintenance rotary drum microfilter has become an indispensable piece of equipment.
YUTANK’s rotary drum microfilter incorporates advanced rotary drum filtration technology and a fully automatic self-cleaning system, delivering efficient, continuous, and labor-saving solid waste removal. It is perfectly compatible with freshwater, seawater, and high-density RAS operations, helping you maintain crystal-clear water, lower operational costs, and enhance aquaculture efficiency.
YUTANK’s rotary drum microfilter is a core mechanical filtration device specifically engineered for aquaculture water treatment. It utilizes precision rotary filtration and intelligent automatic backwashing to quickly separate solid waste, eliminating the need for frequent manual cleaning. Widely applied in intensive fish farming, shrimp hatcheries, koi ponds, and large-scale RAS projects, this microfilter effectively removes large particles and residues before they decompose—protecting downstream biofilters, protein skimmers, and UV sterilizers, reducing organic load, stabilizing water quality, and supporting the healthy growth of aquatic organisms.
The microfilter adopts a professional rotary drum filtration structure. As the drum rotates, water passes through the screen while solids are intercepted. The system automatically triggers backwashing to remove attachments, ensuring uninterrupted production. This design guarantees stable filtration efficiency and continuous water flow, making it suitable for 24/7 continuous operation.
The screen features a detachable modular design, allowing users to easily remove it for inspection, cleaning, or replacement, and directly check the internal condition of the drum. This design significantly simplifies daily maintenance, minimizes downtime, and extends the equipment’s service life.
Equipped with a high-precision filter screen, the microfilter reliably removes large residues, uneaten feed, fish waste, and suspended solids. By intercepting pollutants before they dissolve and contaminate the water, it effectively reduces the pressure on biochemical systems and maintains clean, stable water quality.
Continuous operation and real-time waste removal lower nutrient levels in the water, significantly inhibiting algae reproduction and preventing water turbidity or greening. Waste is collected and discharged through a dedicated sewage trough, avoiding secondary pollution and maintaining a healthy aquaculture environment.
The self-cleaning system operates and adjusts automatically. With simple initial setup, it can work stably for long periods without frequent manual intervention. This reduces labor dependency, addresses the challenges of labor shortages and high labor costs on farms, and simplifies daily management.
