  • VAF Announces New Portable “Drag & Drop” Filter Skid For Frac Water

    VAF specializes in the Engineering & Manufacture of automatic self-cleaning individual, modular and skid-mounted filtration systems that include integrated controls and valves. The V-Series™ automatic self-cleaning filter skid for “Frac” water (V-Series-FS) has been designed for easy portability; available in various configurations for local or remote oil field locations where the filtration skid needs to be relocated. Its unique design not only provides for quick piping hookups and disconnects, but includes a “roll bar” frame that protects the filter, control and piping from damage during relocation. The V-Series, 316L bodies, are horizontally designed for ease of maintenance and simpler operation with fewer moving parts. “VAF is successfully working with all the major oil companies to improve the Frac water quality before being reinjected”. “VAF is successfully working with all the major oil companies to improve the Frac water quality before being reinjected," said Steve Springer, VP.

The 316L stainless steel, multi-layered filtering screen, utilizes a “Uni-weld, Sintered” technology that maximizes open screen area as well as the removal of organic and inorganic particulate from the screen. Inlet/outlet flange sizes can be specified to meet existing field piping.
