Resumo: The correct operation of the backwashing process in sand filters used in micro irrigation determines directly the effectiveness of the subsequent filtration processes, and consequently the micro irrigation systems maintenance. As backwashing involves the filter bed expansion, the current sand filter design makes it impossible to measure the process. In this sense, this work aims to present a hydraulic characterization methodology of the backwashing process of sand filters used in micro irrigation, evaluating the influence of the sand particle size, the filter bed height, and the sand filter design. The proposed methodology can assist manufacturers in gathering equipment operating information, aiming at its presentation in the product catalogs.
