LAKOS Filtration Systems FAQ
What are LAKOS filtration systems used for?
LAKOS filtration systems are designed to remove sand, grit, sediment, and other solid particles from water and industrial process fluids. They are commonly used in irrigation systems, cooling towers, manufacturing facilities, water treatment plants, HVAC systems, and industrial process applications.
What products does LAKOS manufacture?
LAKOS manufactures centrifugal separators, sand separators, cooling tower filtration systems, groundwater filtration equipment, irrigation filters, industrial liquid filtration systems, and custom solids separation solutions.
How do LAKOS centrifugal separators work?
Unlike traditional filters that rely on screens or cartridges, LAKOS centrifugal separators use centrifugal force to separate heavier solids from liquids. This reduces maintenance requirements while helping protect downstream equipment from abrasive particles.
Does Process & Power service LAKOS filtration systems?
Yes. Process & Power provides LAKOS filtration system troubleshooting, preventative maintenance, inspections, equipment repairs, and field service throughout Memphis, Jackson, TN, Little Rock, Springdale, AR, Tupelo, MS, and across the Mid-South.
Why is my filtration system no longer removing sediment?
Poor filtration performance can result from excessive solids loading, incorrect sizing, plugged purge components, improper installation, changes in flow rate, or worn internal components. A complete inspection can identify the problem.
What are the benefits of removing sand and sediment from process water?
Removing abrasive particles helps protect pumps, valves, heat exchangers, nozzles, seals, and other critical equipment from premature wear while improving system efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.
Can Process & Power evaluate my entire filtration system?
Absolutely. Our technicians inspect separators, pumps, valves, piping, controls, instrumentation, and connected equipment to diagnose performance issues and recommend improvements that enhance overall system reliability.
How often should LAKOS systems be maintained?
Maintenance requirements are generally low, but routine inspections of purge valves, collection chambers, piping, flow conditions, and system performance help ensure long-term reliability and efficient solids removal.
What industries commonly use LAKOS filtration equipment?
LAKOS systems are widely used in manufacturing plants, food processing facilities, municipal water systems, power generation, agriculture, mining, chemical processing, commercial HVAC systems, and industrial cooling applications.
Can an existing LAKOS system be upgraded?
Yes. Many systems can be upgraded with automated purge controls, monitoring equipment, additional separators, improved piping, or expanded filtration capacity to meet changing process requirements.
Does Process & Power provide industrial filtration system service near me?
Yes. Process & Power provides industrial filtration system service, preventative maintenance, emergency repairs, and equipment support throughout Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, and the surrounding Mid-South for businesses searching for industrial filtration service near me.
Why is my cooling tower experiencing excessive sediment buildup?
Sediment buildup may result from inadequate filtration, poor purge operation, airborne contaminants, or changing water quality. Improving filtration helps reduce scale, extend equipment life, and improve heat transfer efficiency.
Can preventative maintenance improve filtration system performance?
Yes. Preventative maintenance helps maintain proper flow rates, improve solids removal efficiency, reduce equipment wear, extend system life, and minimize unexpected production interruptions.
How do I know if my facility needs a larger filtration system?
If you're experiencing increased sediment accumulation, frequent equipment wear, higher maintenance costs, reduced cooling efficiency, or expanded production demands, Process & Power can evaluate your application and recommend the proper LAKOS solution.
Why choose Process & Power for LAKOS filtration system support?
Process & Power combines experienced industrial equipment technicians, responsive local service, preventative maintenance programs, and expertise in filtration and fluid handling systems to help customers maximize equipment reliability and keep industrial operations running efficiently throughout the Mid-South.
