During the filtration cycle (service cycle) the water’s initial operating level is low (height of outlet weir crest + initial head loss). As the media starts clogging, the water head above the media starts increasing gradually. Normally, the water level in the bed reaches up to the crest of the influent splitting weir, the service cycle is completed, and the filter is taken out of service for a backwash.
