Since the filter is washed without bed expansion, the particle size of the sand is not chosen with a view to limiting the wash-water return flow, for reasons of economy, as is often the case with filters washed with bed expansion.

CONT

Étant donné que le lavage du filtre s'effectue sans mise en expansion, la granulométrie du sable n'est pas choisie en pensant à la limitation du débit de retour d'eau de lavage pour raisons d'économie comme c'est souvent le cas pour les filtres lavables par mise en expansion.
