In demanding environments where water quality directly impacts performance and productivity, the Everfilt® SK-SSM-Series Sand Media Filters stand out as a trusted solution for durable, mobile, and efficient filtration. Built entirely from stainless steel and designed for rapid deployment, these filtration systems are ideal for agricultural irrigation, industrial water processing, and other operations that require consistent, high-capacity water treatment.
Engineered for Performance & Durability
The SK-SSM-Series filters are fully skid-mounted stainless steel filtration systems, pre-assembled at the Everfilt® facility and ready for immediate use in the field. Each unit features a corrosion-resistant stainless steel tank with a robust three-leg support design, welded 304 stainless steel wedge wire underdrains, and sacrificial anodes for enhanced corrosion protection.
Unlike conventional PVC or coated steel systems, these filters contain no plastic components or false bottoms, ensuring a stronger structure, longer service life, and consistent filtration performance even in harsh environmental conditions.
Key Features & Specifications
Tank Diameters: 12" to 54"
Operating Pressure: 80 – 125 PSI (depending on tank size)
Flow Rates: 25 GPM minimum up to 1500+ GPM maximum
Media: Silica sand & gravel
Construction: 304 stainless steel with welded wedge wire underdrains
Design: Fully skid-mounted with integrated base for easy relocation
Every filter includes a grooved media fill port, carbon steel lid, single drain port per tank, and grooved couplings with gaskets for easy maintenance and reliable sealing. The integrated skid base provides exceptional mobility, allowing operators to quickly reposition or transport the system as operational needs evolve.
Why Stainless Steel Matters
Corrosion and system degradation are constant challenges in filtration environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or variable pH levels. The SK-SSM-Series combats these issues with stainless steel construction and sacrificial anode protection, minimizing downtime and replacement costs while maintaining optimal performance.
The stainless steel design also eliminates concerns about coatings, rust, and contamination, critical for industries that demand clean, reliable water without chemical leaching or structural failure.
