Abstract
A nozzle mounting for the stripper nozzle employed for cleaning the filter media of rotary drum filters. The improved mounting is formed by a stripper duct having a stationary portion and a traversing portion telescoping with respect to said stationary portion, and mounted adjacent the drum filter along a line parallel to the axis of the drum filter. The traversing portion of the duct is coupled to and supports a plurality of equally spaced nozzles, and this traversing duct portion is mounted for reciprocation a distance equal to the spacing between the nozzles so that upon reciprocation of the traversing duct portion, each nozzle will be moved across the media surface rotating with the drum to strip waste therefrom, so that all areas of the media will be cleaned.
