Abstract: The invention relates to methods for restoring well productivity and to devices for cleaning downhole mesh filters without disassembling water-lifting equipment. Well productivity is restored and maintained using an acoustic method based on generating an ultrasonic fluid flow directed at a filter to clean the pre-filter zone of clogging deposits by moving an acoustic emitter along the filter. The acoustic emitter is placed within the lower portion of a casing string, downstream of a submersible downhole pump, and is connected to a means for delivering thereof into the filter zone. The acoustic emitter device comprises an ultrasonic transducer block, which is disposed between two supporting plates and is connected therewith by a rotary unit and an electric motor.
