An SBS Tower Scour is a centrifugal separator that filters a flow of liquid by using centrifugal force, without any filter media, to remove 50 micron and larger separable solids from a fluid stream.

Tower Scours are used primarily in filtering cooling tower water, but they can be used in any fluid application under 80 SSU viscosity, to remove unwanted debris. The debris is flushed out the bottom through a time activated valve. In applications where the debris needs to be contained, the SBS Smart Filter or SBS Sludgebuster are attractive alternates.

SBS recommends the use of eductors to stir up the heavy debris towards the pump suction.
