How does sieve filter work as a filter technology?

A sieve filter is a filter technology that is often used in horticulture to measure the contamination of the water in the first part of a filter installation and to apply a pre-filtration in advance. This way the sequential part of the filter installation is protected against large dirt particles. A sieve filter is particularly suitable for the filtering of process water, cooling water processes, waste water, recirculation systems, irrigation systems and pre-filtration of disinfection systems.
