Abstract
Filter assembly, particularly for handling liquids at elevated temperatures. There is disclosed a filter assembly wherein the headers supplying filter liquid to the filter units and receiving filtrate therefrom are arranged in a first zone, all the filter units are arranged in a second zone, and at least some of the actuators for the backwash controlling valves extend outwardly of and away from both of said zones to avoid the heat associated with said zones. A heat shield may then be positioned between said valve actuators and the rest of the filter assembly, which heat shield may, if desired, be one wall of a heat retaining box enclosing the headers and filter cylinders.
