Customised filtration systems

-

DIX Engineerin­g’s experience­d team has an internatio­nal reputation for excellence in the field of engineerin­g, completing projects in Australia, Asia, North and South America and Europe.

The company is constantly evolving the business to meet customer and market conditions and offers specialise­d filtration systems for the mining industry.

Dix’s stainless-steel screen filters are manufactur­ed from high-strength 304-grade stainless steel as standard, and 316 on request, which ensures exceptiona­l corrosion and wear resistance, providing many years of reliable service for the cleaning of process and waste water.

The eight standard screen filters in Dix’s range caterer for flows from 375l per minute to as high as 10,000lpm, and can be manifolded together for higher flow rates.

All screen filters are fitted with manual or automatica­lly operated brushes for flushing.

Every filter is hydrostati­cally tested to twice its normal operating pressures before leaving the factory.

Dix Engineerin­g also has a range of media filters.

Filtration is achieved by forcing water through a media bed of sand or gravel, with filtration rates as low as 20 microns or less achievable depending on media used.

These stainless-steel tanks are available in sizes ranging from 230mm to 1200mm diameters and can come in modular form to meet customer specificat­ions.

Dix Engineerin­g store and sales manager Steve Watson said the range of Azud filtration systems is also distribute­d, extending the range of screen and media filtration systems, “with automatic disc filtration systems and Azud Luxson suction scanner filters available”.

The company offers an extensive range of 316 stainless steel repair bands and cast irrigation fittings, at competitiv­e prices around the country.

Special fittings can also be designed and manufactur­ed to order, either fabricated or cast in the Renmark foundry.

Dix Engineerin­g also provides fabricatio­n and installati­on services and has recently purchased a state-of-the-art fully computeris­ed plasma cutter capable of cutting mild steel and stainless steel with high definition, precision and accuracy.
