If you work in food production, fisheries, or industrial water treatment, you already know how messy solids separation can get. Between maintenance headaches, clogs, and sanitation rules, a reliable filter isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s essential.
That’s where the Everfilt® LHS-Series Sloped Screen Filter steps in. Built tough from 100% stainless steel, this self-cleaning filter is designed to handle heavy solids, stay clean longer, and keep your operation running smoothly, without all the mechanical fuss.
Built to Last & Built All Stainless
Let’s start with the basics: every part of the LHS-Series, the frame, housing, and wedge wire screen, is made from 304 stainless steel (carbon steel options are available). Translation? It’s corrosion-resistant, easy to sanitize, and made to survive even the harshest cleaning routines.
The best part: no moving parts. That means no motors, no scrapers, and no breakdowns; just gravity, smart design, and reliable performance. You get more uptime, less maintenance, and fewer headaches.
How It Works: Gravity Does the Heavy Lifting

Built for efficiency, these self-cleaning filters remove up to 25% solids from process water and similar liquids, perfect for first-stage separation or pre-treatment steps. The sloped screen geometry uses gravity and flow momentum for effective solids discharge, with no need for motors or mechanical parts.
Why Food & Beverage Producers Love It
In the food and beverage world, everything comes down to cleanliness and consistency. Wastewater often contains organic solids, fats, and debris that can clog systems fast. The LHS-Series helps by catching all that upfront, keeping your process water clean and your treatment systems happy.
Here’s what makes it a game-changer for food operations:
Totally Stainless: 304 stainless steel design is hygienic & easy to clean.
Low Maintenance: With no moving parts, it practically takes care of itself.
Handles Heavy Solids: Removes up to 25% solids before hitting downstream filters.
Saves Energy: Runs on gravity alone, no motors or electricity.
Fits Any Setup: Available in multiple sizes & meshes to match your flow rate.
Common food industry uses:
Meat & Poultry Plant Wastewater
Brewery & Distillery Solids Removal
Dairy & Beverage Plant Pre-Filtration
Fruit & Vegetable Washwater Separation
Commercial Kitchen & Washdown Systems
Not Just for Food, It’s Versatile, Too
Yes, the LHS-Series is a rockstar in food production, but it’s also built for a range of industrial and commercial jobs.
Fisheries: Keeps fish waste & organic solids out of processing water.
Packaging Plants & Facilities: Filters solids from washdown water before discharge.
Industrial Water Treatment: Acts as a pre-filter before finer filtration systems.
And because it’s modular, you can connect multiple units for higher flow demands, up to 5,000 GPM total. So whether you’re running a boutique brewery or a full-scale fishery, the system grows with your needs.

Sustainable, Simple, & Smart
The LHS-Series doesn’t just filter, it makes your water management system more sustainable. By removing solids early, it reduces the strain on downstream systems, cuts back on waste disposal, and saves energy by eliminating the need for powered filtration.
In short, it’s an eco-friendly solution that boosts productivity and helps you stay compliant with environmental standards.
Why the LHS-Series Is a No-Brainer
If you’re looking for a stainless steel filter that’s reliable, low-maintenance, and built for the long haul, the Everfilt® LHS-Series Sloped Screen Filter checks all the boxes.
It’s tough enough for industrial use, hygienic enough for food production, and simple enough to keep your team focused on what matters, production, not maintenance.
So whether you’re filtering fish water, brewery waste, or rinse water from your production floor, this system keeps your operation clean, efficient, and compliant.
