Jalgaon, Maharashtra, India. abhijit.joshi@jains.com Abstract— The hydrocyclone filter main problem is occurred that known as the corrosion and rusting problem. The main reason for this is when hydrocyclone filter filters water, the slurry or impurity or sand gets stored in storage tank. Ideally farmer should clean storage tank on regular basis but irregular maintenance of storage tank causes slurry to move upward and make their place in apex section. The slurry stored in apex section leads to severe corrosion. Secondary cause for wearing of apex section is turbulence of water. So avoid this problem, the modification in the design of an existing hydro cyclone filter is the core of efficiency improvement. We will make some important changes in the design of the current version. On detail analysis of the problems, one can conclude that farmers are equally responsible for decreased life and problems faced of the hydrocyclone filter. This given rise to a new idea where equipment cost will be less, the filter will be totally self-sufficient to be independent in fuel and will not need any external power to drive. This requirement will comprise a drain valve with automatic flushing of sand, existing energy use.
